FAQs
What is the material composition of this skirt?
The skirt is made from a blend of 77% Viscose, 20% Polyamide, and 3% Elastane, providing both comfort and stretch.
How should I wash this Roman Animal Print Skirt?
It is machine washable. For best results, wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and lay flat to air dry. Do not tumble dry.
Is the waistband elasticated for comfort?
Yes, the skirt features a comfortable elasticated waistband designed for easy dressing and a flexible fit.
Can I wear this skirt to work?
Absolutely. Its classic pencil shape and versatile animal print make it suitable for professional environments when paired with a blouse and appropriate footwear.
What is the approximate length of the skirt?
The skirt has an approximate length of 61cm.
Does this skirt run true to size?
Yes, the product description indicates it is true to size, offering a regular fit.
Does the skirt have pockets?
There is no mention of pockets in the product description, so it's safe to assume this pencil skirt does not feature them.
Troubleshooting
Skirt feels too tight or uncomfortable despite being my size.
While the skirt is true to size and features stretch, its form-fitting nature might feel snug. Ensure the elastic waistband sits comfortably. If consistently uncomfortable, consider trying the next size up if available, or confirm sizing against Roman's size guide.
Animal print appears dull or faded after washing.
Always wash according to the care instructions. Use a cold water, gentle machine cycle with a mild detergent. High temperatures or harsh washing cycles can damage the print and fabric fibers. Avoid using bleach.
Skirt has lost some of its shape or stretch.
Improper drying is a common cause. Always lay the skirt flat to air dry. Tumble drying or hanging while wet can stretch out the elastic and fabric. Avoid overstretching the fabric during wear or storage.
Fabric appears to pill or show wear quickly.
Pilling can sometimes occur with certain fabric blends. To minimize this, wash the skirt inside out on a gentle cycle. Avoid friction from rough surfaces or bags, and use a fabric shaver to carefully remove any pills that do form.

Care
To ensure your skirt maintains its shape, stretch, and vibrant print, follow these care instructions:
- Machine Washable: Yes, the skirt is machine washable. However, due to the Viscose and Elastane blend, a cold water, gentle cycle is recommended to prevent shrinkage or damage to the fabric.
- Drying: Avoid high heat. Lay flat to air dry on a clean surface. Do not tumble dry, as this can damage the elastic and stretch properties of the fabric. Hanging may cause stretching.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting inside out. Avoid direct heat on the print.
- Storage: Store folded or hung carefully to prevent creasing and maintain its classic pencil shape.
