To preserve the print and structure of your vintage floral patchwork skirt, hand wash in cold water with a mild detergent or use the delicate cycle on your washing machine inside a laundry bag. Avoid bleach to maintain the vibrancy of the pattern, and air dry in the shade to prevent fading. Light steam or low-heat ironing on the reverse side will smooth out wrinkles. For styling, pair it with a simple wrap top or fitted blouse to let the print shine. Complete the look with strappy heels and a minimalist handbag for a chic, retro-inspired outfit.
