FAQs
Can I wash this skirt in a washing machine?
No, this skirt is made of leather and must not be machine washed. Please use a professional leather cleaning service.
What is the best way to store the skirt?
Store it on a padded skirt hanger in a breathable garment bag to protect the leather from dust and light exposure.

Does the red colour fade?
To prevent fading, store the skirt away from direct sunlight and heat sources, which can break down pigments in leather.
Troubleshooting
Wrinkles in the leather fabric
Hang the garment in a steamy bathroom (avoiding direct water) to allow natural fibers to relax, or consult a professional leather cleaner.
Minor scuffs on the leather surface
Use a specialized leather conditioner or cream that matches the red colour family to buff out minor surface imperfections.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As this garment is constructed from leather, proper maintenance is essential for longevity. To keep the skirt in its best condition, store it on a padded hanger to prevent creases and avoid folding the material, which can cause permanent markings. Keep the skirt in a cool, dry environment away from direct sunlight to prevent the red pigment from fading. For cleaning, do not attempt home machine washing; seek a professional leather specialist to treat any stains or maintain the material's sheen. Compatibility with various tops is high, but we suggest choosing slim-fit fabrics like silk or fine-gauge knits to ensure a smooth transition from the top to the structured waistband.
