Troubleshooting

Fabric feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure the dry cleaner is aware of the silk blend. Re-airing the garment in a humid environment briefly might help restore softness.

Waistband feels too tight or loose

The elasticated waistband offers some give. If significantly uncomfortable, consider professional tailoring for a custom fit, though alteration may affect the garment's original drape.

Minor wrinkles or creases

Use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. For stubborn creases, a garment steamer can be used with caution, keeping it at a distance.
