How should I determine my correct size?

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears wrinkled

Iron on a low heat setting, using a pressing cloth if necessary. Ensure the skirt is fully dry before ironing.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and cold water. Air dry completely, and if needed, a gentle steam can help soften the fabric.

Carefully reinforce the button threads with a needle and matching thread. Avoid excessive pulling or snagging on the buttons.
