FAQs

What material is the skirt made from?

The skirt is made from a smooth stretch jersey fabric, consisting of 65% Polyester and 35% Viscose.

Is the skirt true to size?

Yes, it is designed for a women's regular fit and is true to size.

How do I wash this skirt?

The skirt is machine washable. It's recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours and air dry to maintain its quality.

What is the approximate length of the skirt?

The skirt has an approximate length of 58cm.

Does it have pockets?

Info needed: The description does not specify if the skirt has pockets. Please refer to product images or further product details if available.

Can this skirt be worn for different seasons?

While explicitly highlighted for Autumn/Winter styling (e.g., with jumpers and ankle boots), its stretch jersey fabric allows for versatility. It can be adapted for cooler Spring days or mild evenings depending on how it's styled.

Is the waist adjustable?

The skirt features an elasticated waist, which provides flexibility and comfort rather than a traditional adjustable mechanism like a drawstring or belt loops.

Troubleshooting

Skirt feels too tight or too loose despite being 'true to size'

While designed to be true to size, individual body shapes vary. Ensure you've checked a size guide if available. If the fit is significantly off, consider exchanging for a different size. The elasticated waist offers some flexibility.

Fabric appears creased or wrinkled after washing

Even though it's a stretch jersey, slight creasing can occur. Ensure it's removed promptly from the washing machine. Air dry by laying flat or hanging smoothly. Iron on a low heat setting if needed, preferably inside out.

Colour appears to be fading over time

Always wash with similar colours and use cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid harsh detergents and direct, prolonged exposure to sunlight during drying or storage, as UV rays can cause fading.

Skirt feels restrictive when moving

The pencil skirt silhouette is inherently more fitted than A-line or flared styles. This is a design feature. If maximum movement is a priority, an alternative style might be more suitable. For this skirt, consider pairing with more relaxed tops to balance the fit.

Compatibility

  • Styling: The classic check print and pencil silhouette make this skirt highly compatible with a wide range of tops, knitwear, and outerwear. It pairs beautifully with solid colours to let the print stand out, or with complementary patterns for a bold statement.

Care Instructions

To ensure your skirt maintains its quality and appearance, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: The skirt is Machine Washable. It's recommended to wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours to prevent colour transfer and maintain fabric integrity. Use cold or lukewarm water.
  • Drying: Air dry by laying flat or hanging to avoid stretching or distorting the fabric. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent colour fading. Tumble drying is generally not recommended for stretch jersey fabrics as it can damage elasticity and fabric quality.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, to protect the print and fabric finish.
  • Storage: Store the skirt by hanging it or folding it neatly to prevent wrinkles and maintain its shape.
