To wear the Bridget Skirt, simply pull it up over your hips. The thin elastic waistband will keep it snugly in place. You can pair it with the Bridget Top as suggested or with other tops you like. When it comes to washing, it's best to use a gentle cycle in cold water to preserve the softness of the knit fabric. Avoid using bleach as it may damage the chocolate brown color. After washing, lay it flat to dry to prevent any stretching. Iron on a low - heat setting if needed.
