Troubleshooting

Wrinkles in the wool fabric

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the wool fabric and the frayed hem, this skirt should be kept away from harsh chemicals and abrasive surfaces. Since the garment features metal buckles and leather components, avoid soaking the skirt in water, as this may tarnish the hardware or damage the leather straps. For care, always defer to professional dry cleaning services specializing in delicate woolens to ensure the pleating remains sharp and the fabric retains its color vibrancy. When storing, hang the skirt using a skirt-specific hanger with clips to prevent unwanted creasing in the wool fabric.
