FAQs

What is the 'wheel model' pleating?

The 'wheel model' pleating refers to a specific, sculpted method of creating irregular pleats that give the skirt a unique, architectural silhouette and dynamic movement.

Can this skirt be worn in warmer weather?

While made of wool, its unlined nature can make it adaptable. However, it is best suited for transitional or cooler weather. Lighter layering pieces can help regulate temperature.

How do I ensure the best fit?

The skirt features an adjustable drawstring elastic waistband, allowing you to customize the fit for comfort and security.

What is the best way to store this skirt?

Hang the skirt on a padded hanger to prevent stretching or creasing. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Consider using a garment bag for added protection.

Is the skirt lined?

No, the skirt is unlined.

What are the washing instructions for this wool skirt?

To maintain the quality and shape of the 100% wool and its pleats, dry cleaning is strongly recommended.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their shape

Gently steam the skirt on a cool setting, ensuring the iron does not directly touch the pleats. Dry cleaning is the best method for preserving pleat structure.

Skirt feels too warm

Given the unlined construction, consider pairing it with lighter fabrics or wearing it during cooler seasons. It can also be styled with lighter tops to balance warmth.

Waistband feels too loose or too tight

Adjust the drawstring to find your preferred fit. Ensure the drawstring is properly threaded and tied.
