Gently steam the skirt on a cool setting, holding the steamer at a distance, or consult a professional dry cleaner for specialized care.

Creases in the tulle layers

Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric with a protective cloth. Avoid direct high heat. Professional steaming is also an option.
