Does the faux leather material stretch?

The material has limited stretch. It is primarily composed of polyurethane and polyester, so it retains its shape but does not offer significant elasticity.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears creased

Hang the skirt for a few days to allow creases to fall out naturally. Avoid ironing faux leather directly. If necessary, use a steamer on a very low setting, holding it at a distance.

Minor marks on the surface

Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, use a mild soap solution and wipe clean with a damp cloth, then dry immediately with a soft cloth.

Zipper is difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to move it up and down. If it remains stiff, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed on the zipper teeth can help lubricate it.
