How should I clean the Zimmermann floral skirt?

Professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the fabric and the structural integrity of the ruffles.

Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles in the ruffles

Zipper feels stiff

Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently rub a graphite pencil tip along the zipper teeth to lubricate it.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Zimmermann skirt, it is essential to follow proper care protocols. Given the cotton-silk blend, it is highly recommended to seek professional dry cleaning or perform a very gentle cold hand wash if absolutely necessary. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as the heat and agitation can damage the delicate ruffle details and affect the fabric's integrity. When storing, keep the skirt hung on a padded hanger to avoid creases in the ruffles, and store the removable rope belt in a cool, dry place to keep the tassels from fraying.
