FAQs

What material is this skirt made from?

This Roman Pleated Midi Skirt is crafted from luxurious velvet fabric.

What is the approximate length of the skirt?

The skirt has an approximate length of 79cm.

Is the waistband adjustable?

The skirt features an elasticated waistband for a comfortable pull-on fit, offering flexibility rather than adjustable ties or buttons.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

Yes, the skirt is machine washable. It's recommended to wash on a delicate cycle with cold water and air dry to maintain the velvet's quality.

How should I store the skirt to maintain its pleats?

It is best to store the skirt by hanging it on a padded hanger. This helps to maintain the integrity of the pleats and prevent creasing.

Is this skirt suitable for formal occasions?

Yes, its elegant pleated detail and luxurious velvet make it suitable for dressy and formal occasions when paired appropriately with other formal wear.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their crispness

Gently steam the skirt using a garment steamer or hang it in a steamy bathroom. This helps to relax the fabric and restore the pleats. Avoid direct ironing on the pleats.

Velvet appears crushed or marked

Lightly brush the affected area with a soft clothing brush or velvet brush in the direction of the nap. For deeper marks, gentle steaming can often help to lift the pile.

Skirt feels too tight or loose

While the elasticated waistband offers some flexibility, if the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider checking Roman's size guide for other available sizes to ensure optimal comfort.

Color appears dull or faded after washing

Ensure you are washing the skirt on a delicate cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Harsh detergents or hot water can sometimes affect fabric color over time. Air drying also helps preserve color vibrancy.

Care Instructions

Proper care will help maintain the luxurious look and feel of your velvet skirt:

  • Washing: The skirt is machine washable. For best results and to protect the velvet, wash on a delicate cycle with cold water. Use a mild detergent.
  • Drying: Avoid tumble drying, as this can damage velvet and alter its texture. Instead, hang the skirt to air dry, preferably on a padded hanger to maintain its shape and pleats.
  • Ironing/Steaming: If creasing occurs, avoid direct high heat ironing. Instead, use a garment steamer or hang the skirt in a steamy bathroom to gently release wrinkles. If you must iron, do so on the reverse side with a low heat setting and a pressing cloth.
  • Storage: Store the skirt by hanging it on a padded hanger to prevent creases and preserve the integrity of the pleats. Avoid folding the skirt for long periods.
