Troubleshooting
Skirt appears too sheer for desired coverage.
Layer with a slip skirt, opaque shorts, or a fine-knit tights underneath. For daytime wear, pair with a longer-line top or sweater.
Zipper is sticking.
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of lubricant like graphite (from a pencil tip) or a tiny drop of sewing machine oil to the zipper teeth, then work the zipper back and forth.
Fabric snag or pull.
Avoid wearing jewelry or accessories that could catch the fabric. If a minor snag occurs, do not pull it, as this can worsen the damage. Professional repair may be needed for significant snags.
