Troubleshooting

Skirt appears to have shrunk after washing.

Ensure you are using a cold wash cycle and a low heat tumble dry setting. Avoid high heat, which can cause cotton knits to shrink.

Color seems faded after a few washes.

Use a mild detergent and wash inside out. Consider line drying in the shade to protect the color from direct sunlight.

Ribbed waistband feels too tight or too loose.

The ribbed waistband is designed for a secure fit. If it feels uncomfortable, ensure you have selected the correct size. Minor adjustments may be possible through careful steaming, but significant alterations are not recommended without professional tailoring.
