Troubleshooting
Wrinkles in silk fabric
Gently steam the skirt on a low heat setting. Alternatively, iron on the reverse side with a pressing cloth on the lowest heat setting. Avoid direct high heat.
Stains on the skirt
For best results, consult a professional dry cleaner immediately. Blot small spills gently with a clean, damp cloth and allow to air dry away from direct heat.
Loss of shape
