Troubleshooting
Visible creasing after storage
Use a professional garment steamer on a low setting; do not apply a hot iron directly to the fabric surface.
Small spot or mark on the fabric
Take the garment to a professional dry cleaner immediately; do not attempt to spot clean with water as it may leave a ring.
Fit feels slightly tight at the waist
Ensure you are measuring at the narrowest part of your torso; if the fit remains uncomfortable, consult a tailor for minor adjustments to the inner seam.

Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Always check the internal garment tag; professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the shape and color.
- Storage: Use a skirt hanger with clips to prevent deep creases.
- Handling: Avoid contact with oils, makeup, or strong dyes, as the white fabric is highly absorbent of external pigments.
