FAQs
What is the length of the skirt?
The skirt is a maxi length, measuring approximately 110cm.
Can I machine wash this skirt?
Due to the delicate satin material, professional dry cleaning is the recommended care method.
Is the fabric prone to stretching?
The tailored fit is designed to hold its shape, but avoid over-stretching the fabric during wear.
What occasions is this skirt best for?
It is ideally suited for black-tie events, galas, formal parties, and evening celebrations.
Does the front split affect the fit?
The front split is designed for aesthetics and ease of movement, allowing the hem to flow while maintaining the skirt's polished shape.
How should I store this skirt?
Hang the skirt in a cool, dry place using a proper skirt hanger to prevent creases and protect the fabric finish.
Troubleshooting
The skirt has become caught or snagged.
Do not pull at the fabric. Carefully inspect the area to see if a thread can be eased back into place. If the snag is significant, take it to a professional tailor.
The fabric texture appears flattened in certain areas.
Avoid heavy pressing or ironing. You may gently steam the area from a distance to help the fibers relax back into their natural crinkle state.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your skirt remains in pristine condition, always follow the garment's internal care label. Given the delicate nature of crinkle satin, professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended to preserve the texture and sheen of the fabric. Avoid direct contact with rough surfaces to prevent snagging. For storage, hang the skirt using garment-friendly hangers with clips that won't leave marks on the waistband. If the skirt becomes wrinkled beyond its intended crinkle finish, use a steamer on a low, gentle setting from a safe distance; avoid ironing directly, as high heat can flatten the deliberate texture of the fabric.
