How do you stop skirts going static?

I have many lovely skirts and dresses.

So often, even if they start promisingly, they end up going ‘static’ and sticking to my legs. Which obviously looks awful.

I had a lovely satin skirt which was fine for months until today, where it looked like I’d vacuum-packed it onto my legs.

How do I avoid this happening? Is it the fabric, the way I wash it?

I don’t see other women struggling with this with the frequency I do!

Wear an anti-static slip underneath. They sell them in M&S.

Spray hairspray on your legs and up the skirt before you put it on. Works a treat!
