Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their definition after washing.

Ensure you are washing on a cool cycle and air drying. If pleats relax significantly, consider professional steaming or very careful low-heat ironing on the reverse side.

Skirt feels tight or restrictive.

Check the size guide carefully. The fitted nature means accurate sizing is crucial. The elastane content offers some stretch, but the primary fit is designed to be straight.

Fabric appears dull or worn.

Avoid harsh detergents and high washing temperatures. Air drying also helps maintain fabric quality and color vibrancy.
