Troubleshooting

Skirt appears creased after washing.

Gently shake out the skirt after washing and lay flat or hang to dry. If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting. A garment steamer can also help remove creases effectively.

Pleats are losing their definition.

Ensure the skirt is dried flat or hung correctly. Avoid excessive wringing or harsh washing cycles. Professional dry cleaning might help restore sharp pleats if the issue persists.
