A little care goes a long way.
Your Nouvelle Habit skirt is designed to be worn, enjoyed and cared for, season after season. With a little attention, its beautiful waxed cotton fabric can continue to protect you from the elements for years to come.
Our Waxed Cotton Care Kit makes it easy to re-wax your skirt at home, helping to maintain its water resistance and prolong the life of the fabric.
Each Care Kit includes:
- Unique patchwork waxed cotton zip-up bag
- Wax tin (choose from 40ml or 200ml)
- Biodegradable sponges
Choosing your wax
40ml – Perfect for little touch-ups
Ideal for replenishing the wax in areas that experience the most wear, such as the hem and pockets, keeping your skirt protected between full re-waxing treatments.
200ml – For a complete refresh
Enough wax for approximately two full reproofing treatments, helping to restore your skirt's water resistance and keep it ready for many more days outdoors.
A little something unique
Each patchwork bag is individually made by me using leftover waxed cotton from our skirt production. No two are quite the same. The colour you pick relates to the overall design and lining, so your bag will be a lucky dip.
Practical and versatile, it's designed to be used long after you've finished re-waxing, giving our fabric offcuts a new purpose.
Caring for your waxed cotton
Re-waxing your skirt at home is simple, and a little regular care will help keep it in good condition.
Over time, everyday wear, cleaning and exposure to the elements can gradually remove the protective wax coating. Replenishing this layer helps maintain the fabric's water resistance and protect it from wear.
I recommend paying particular attention to the hem and pockets, as these areas experience the most abrasion. It's also worth re-waxing after removing mud or grease, or following prolonged periods in heavy rain.
You'll find easy-to-follow re-waxing instructions on the bottom of your wax tin.
The better you care for your waxed cotton, the longer you can enjoy wearing it.

I absolutely love my skirt from Nouvelle Habit. I messaged back and forth with Odette to have slight adjustments made to the skirt length before I ordered and she was a pleasure to deal with. It arrived beautifully (and I mean truly beautifully) packaged, made and sent with loving care. I wear it throughout the whole of Autumn, Winter and Spring, I wear it to walk the dogs, pooh pick the fields and ride my horses. I just wish Odette made matching jackets…. I’d buy one like a shot!

I could not recommended a nicer lady or company. We met at a show and instantly you could see how the quality was through the skirt from start to finish. When it arrived in the post it did not fail to give me the ‘wow’ factor, she really had thought of everything including the wax seal on the envelope. Several people have commented on my skirt & I have & I will continue to recommend this amazing brand!
Thank you, what a find!!
