FAQs

How do the leather side straps work?

The straps function like a belt, allowing you to adjust the waist width by tightening the metal buckles to match your fit.

Is the skirt lined?

What does 'lurex threads' mean?

Troubleshooting

Buckles feel loose after walking

Ensure the leather strap is passed through the keeper loop after buckling to provide additional tension and prevent the buckle from sliding.

Threads appearing on the frayed hem

The frayed hem is a intentional design feature. Use sharp embroidery scissors to trim only excessive long strands if they become snagged, but do not pull them.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the skirt, loosen the leather side straps, step into the garment, and adjust the wrap panels to your preferred fit before tightening the metal buckles. For compatibility, the UK size 10 fits true to standard sizing, but take into account the thickness of any tucked-in layers. Due to the delicate nature of virgin wool and the leather trim, this garment is not machine washable. Always opt for professional dry cleaning to protect the integrity of the wool fibers, the lurex threads, and the leather buckles. Store the skirt on a proper skirt hanger with clips to prevent deep creasing.
