Troubleshooting
Jacket loses its shine after washing
Ensure you are following the recommended cold hand wash or dry clean instructions. Iron on a low setting with a pressing cloth or steam carefully to restore luster.
Jacket appears wrinkled
Gently iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side, or use a steamer. Taffeta is prone to wrinkles, so handle with care.
Elasticated waistband feels too tight
The elastic is designed for a snug fit to maintain the cropped silhouette. If it feels uncomfortable, consider if the size is appropriate. This jacket has minimal stretch.
