FAQs
What is the length of this skirt?
This midi skirt falls approximately 83cm, providing an elegant, elongating silhouette.
Can I wash this skirt in a washing machine?
No, this skirt is made of wool and should only be dry cleaned to avoid damage to the fabric and tailored structure.
Does the skirt have a lot of stretch?
The skirt is intentionally structured to provide a polished fit, meaning it has limited stretch compared to jersey or synthetic blends.
Is the high waistband comfortable for all-day wear?
Yes, the waistband is designed for a sleek, defined fit that remains comfortable for office wear, though it is tailored for a firm hold.
What should I wear with this midi skirt?
It pairs beautifully with slim-fitting tops, such as tucked-in blouses or turtlenecks, which highlight the high-waisted design.
Does the front split affect the professional look?
No, the split is subtle and functional, designed to aid movement while maintaining a modest and composed professional aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles or creases
Use a garment steamer on the lowest setting; do not iron directly onto the wool surface.
Fabric collecting lint or dust
Use a high-quality fabric brush designed for wool to gently lift debris without pulling the fibers.
Small snag or loose thread
Do not pull the thread. Use a fine needle to carefully tuck it back into the seam or consult a professional tailor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this skirt is made of premium wool, proper care is essential to preserve its shape. Always hang the garment on a suit hanger using the provided hanging loops to prevent stretching the waistband. When not in use, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading. For maintenance, avoid machine washing; professional dry cleaning is recommended to protect the integrity of the fold detail and the wool fibers. Should the skirt become slightly wrinkled after storage, use a garment steamer on a low setting, keeping the nozzle a few inches away from the wool surface.
