FAQs

What material is the skirt made from?

The Roman Animal Print Pencil Skirt is crafted from Polyester, which provides its stretch, comfort, and flattering fit.

What is the length of the skirt?

The length of this skirt is approximately 60cm.

Is the waistband adjustable?

The skirt features a comfortable elasticated waistband for a secure, pull-on fit. While it's designed to adapt, it is not manually adjustable with drawstrings or buttons.

Can I wear this skirt for work?

Yes, its classic pencil shape, knee-length design, and sophisticated black animal print make it suitable for professional office environments, business meetings, and formal events when paired with appropriate tops and footwear.

How do I wash the skirt?

It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors using cold or lukewarm water. Avoid bleach and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

Does the skirt have a split?

Yes, the skirt includes a split detail to add flair and allow for enhanced movement.

Troubleshooting

Elastic waistband feels loose or stretched out

Ensure you are following the care instructions, especially regarding drying temperature. High heat can damage elastic. If the issue persists after proper care, it might indicate natural wear over time. Consider professional alteration or replacement if the fit is no longer comfortable.

Skirt feels too tight or uncomfortable despite being the correct size

While the skirt features stretch fabric, ensure the size chosen aligns with your measurements. The 'form-fitting' nature might feel snug. If discomfort persists, check your body measurements against Roman's sizing guide. The length of approx 60cm is fixed and can't be adjusted without alteration.

Animal print appears dull or faded

Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, and always wash with similar colors. Excessive rubbing during washing or drying in direct sunlight for prolonged periods can also contribute to fading. Ironing on the reverse side with low heat can help protect the print.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Compatibility

Being a black-based animal print, this skirt offers wide compatibility with various tops and accessories:

  • Tops: Works well with solid colors like black, white, cream, or jewel tones. Avoid clashing patterns.
  • Outerwear: Can be paired with blazers, cardigans, denim jackets, or leather jackets.
  • Footwear: Suitable for court shoes, ankle boots, heels, or even smart flats, depending on the desired look.
  • Accessories: Keep accessories simple to let the print stand out, or choose metallic accents for an evening look.

Care Instructions

To ensure your Roman Animal Print Pencil Skirt maintains its quality and extends its lifespan, follow these general care guidelines for Polyester fabric:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Use cold or lukewarm water to prevent shrinking or damage to the elastic.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
  3. Bleach: Do not bleach, as this can damage the print and fabric.
  4. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, hang to air dry to prevent heat damage to the elastic and fabric stretch. Polyester dries relatively quickly.
  5. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side. Avoid direct heat on the print area.
  6. Dry Cleaning: The skirt is generally suitable for dry cleaning, but always check the care label for specific instructions.
