FAQs

What occasions is this skirt best suited for?

This skirt is ideal for summer garden parties, weddings (as a guest), and other elevated daytime events where a polished and sophisticated look is desired.

How should I style this skirt for cooler weather?

For cooler months, layer the skirt with a tailored fitted blazer and pair with block-heeled mules. Accessorize with a statement cuff bracelet for an autumnal ensemble.

What type of top best complements this skirt?

A fitted sleeveless top tucked into the waist is recommended to allow the skirt's intricate design to take center stage.

What is the approximate length of the skirt?

The skirt sits at approximately 90cm, designed to skim the lower leg for a midi-to-maxi length.

What is the material of the skirt?

The skirt features a woven construction with a lined interior. The details include delicate floral lace trim.

How do I care for the lace trim?

The lace trim is delicate. It is recommended to hand wash the skirt in cold water or opt for professional dry cleaning to maintain its integrity.

Troubleshooting

Skirt does not hang as expected

Ensure the skirt is properly steamed or ironed according to fabric care instructions, paying close attention to the pleats and tiers. Check that the correct size has been selected.

Lace trim appears snagged or damaged

Handle the skirt with care during wear and storage. If minor snags occur, attempt to gently tease them apart. For significant damage, professional repair may be necessary.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

If hand washing, use a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Avoid fabric softeners if they are not recommended for lace. Professional dry cleaning might be a better option for maintaining fabric quality.
