FAQs

What is the length of the skirt?

The skirt sits at approximately 95cm to fall elegantly below the knee.

Is the skirt true to size?

The skirt is designed with a petite-specific cut, so it is tailored to fit those looking for proportioned styling on a shorter frame.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

Due to the woven twill fabric and full lining, professional dry cleaning is recommended to protect the garment's structure.

What kind of top works best with this skirt?

A fitted tucked-in top or a simple bodysuit balances the volume of the pleated skirt.

Is the fabric heavy?

The skirt uses a woven twill which provides a structured, high-quality weight that ensures the skirt keeps its shape.

Troubleshooting

Pleats look flattened after storage

Steam the pleats lightly from the inside using a garment steamer, ensuring not to overheat the lining.

Minor wrinkles in the fabric

Hang the skirt in a humid bathroom for 15 minutes to allow light creases to drop out, or use a low-heat iron with a protective cloth.

Pros and Cons

  • Dramatic, voluminous movement provided by deep pleats

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the structure and finish of this garment, always store it hanging vertically in a closet using clips that do not crush the pleats. Because the skirt is made from woven twill and is fully lined, it is recommended to dry clean the item professionally to prevent shrinkage or loss of shape. Compatibility is best achieved with fitted tops and classic heels. Avoid wearing with heavy bags that have metal hardware that could snag the twill weave over extended use.
