For the past three years, apparently, my pleats have looked like a shower curtain, and I have recently attempted several times to repress them. Unfortunately, I can't seem to do it quite right . Methinks the issue lies in the way I lay it out to press. Whenever I lay it out on the table (over a towel) it looks like an "A" or "/ \". I believe the way it should look is a box, correct? When I attempt to lay it like that, it becomes very wavy, strange looking, and difficult to manage. The waistband also curves -- is this normal?

In the past I have taken it to be dry-cleaned and pressed, compleatly (pardon the pun) unaware of the incorrect methods they were using.


I need help, O Wise Rabble!
