Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing wrinkled after storage

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this garment is made from wool, proper care is essential to preserve its shape and fabric integrity. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high heat and agitation can cause the wool to shrink or lose its tailored structure. It is recommended to have this item professionally dry cleaned. When storing, use a skirt hanger with clips to maintain the waist's shape, and ensure it is kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fiber degradation. For minor touch-ups, use a steamer on a low setting, keeping distance from the fabric to avoid moisture damage.
