Care & Longevity Maintenance
- 🖤 Washing — Hand wash in cool water with mild detergent. Machine washing on delicate cycle is acceptable for cotton portions, but hand washing preserves the synthetic leather accents and metal hardware longer.
- 🖤 Drying — Air dry away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading and preserve the fabric’s integrity. Do not tumble dry.
- 🖤 Hardware Care — Gently wipe metal buckle and eyelets with a soft, dry cloth. Polish with a silver cloth if patina develops, or embrace the antique aesthetic as part of the goth aesthetic.
- 🖤 Storage — Store flat or hang on a wide hanger to preserve the skirt’s shape. Keep away from rough surfaces to prevent snagging the delicate ruffles.
- 🖤 Ironing — Use low heat if needed, and always iron on the reverse side to protect the ruffles. Consider using a steamer for dramatic volume.
