FAQs

What does 'petite' fit mean?

Petite sizing is specially cut with shorter hemlines and adjusted proportions to better suit women who are 5'3" and under.

Can I put this skirt in the dryer?

It is best to air dry to prevent excessive shrinkage or damage to the shirred elastic; however, a low-heat tumble dry is generally acceptable for cotton.

Does the skirt have a lining?

The skirt is made from high-quality poplin, which is typically opaque, but we recommend wearing skin-tone undergarments if you have concerns about sheerness.

How should I style this for a formal event?

Pair it with a structured blouse, heeled sandals, and minimalist jewelry to elevate the look from casual to smart-casual.

Is the fabric prone to fading?

To keep the yellow vibrant, wash the skirt inside out and avoid direct, prolonged sunlight when drying.

Troubleshooting

Wrinkling of the fabric after sitting

Poplin is a natural cotton weave that may crease; use a garment steamer for a quick refresh before wearing.

Waist fit feels too tight or loose

The shirring provides natural stretch, but ensure the skirt is positioned correctly at the natural waistline to utilize the full range of the elastic.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this is a garment, setup is straightforward—simply slip the skirt on and style it as desired. To maintain the quality of the cotton poplin:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colours to prevent fading.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible to preserve the fabric structure, or tumble dry on a low heat setting.
  3. Ironing: A light iron or steamer is recommended to remove creases and restore the crisp look of the poplin finish.
  4. Compatibility: The skirt pairs exceptionally well with fitted tops like bodysuits or slim-fit t-shirts to balance the volume of the maxi skirt.
