FAQs
What is the exact material composition of the skirt?
The skirt is made from 86% Viscose, 10% Polyamide, and 4% Elastane, providing a comfortable stretch jersey fabric.
What is the length of this skirt?
The length of the skirt is approximately 50cm, designed to sit above the knee for most.
Is this skirt suitable for formal occasions?
This skirt is best suited for casual to smart-casual daytime wear. Its playful skater style is generally less appropriate for very formal events.
How do I ensure the skirt maintains its shape after washing?
To help maintain its shape, machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water, and then air dry flat or hang dry. Avoid high heat tumble drying.
Does the skirt have a zipper or other fasteners?
No, it features a comfortable pull-on fit, meaning it has no zippers or traditional fasteners.
Is the sizing accurate?
The product is generally true to size. For the best fit, it is recommended to consult Roman's specific size guide if you are unsure.
Troubleshooting
Skirt feels too tight or too loose.
The skirt is designed to be 'true to size' with stretch. If it feels significantly off, double-check your measurements against the brand's size guide. If between sizes, consider the stretch factor for a snugger or looser fit.
Fabric appears creased after washing.
As it's a jersey blend, some creasing can occur. Remove promptly from the washing machine. Air dry flat or hang carefully. If creases persist, iron on a low heat setting, ideally inside out.
Pilling or bobbling of the fabric.
Pilling can sometimes occur with blended fabrics. To minimize this, wash inside out on a gentle cycle. If pilling occurs, use a fabric shaver or lint remover to carefully remove the bobbles.
Colour appears to be fading.
To prevent colour fading, especially for black garments, always wash with similar dark colours and use a detergent specifically designed for dark clothes. Wash in cold water and avoid direct strong sunlight when drying for extended periods.

Care
To maintain the quality and longevity of your Roman Pull On Stretch Skater Skirt, please follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine washable. For best results and to prevent fading or damage to the fabric blend (86% Viscose, 10% Polyamide, 4% Elastane), wash with similar colours on a gentle cycle.
- Temperature: Use cold or lukewarm water settings.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: Avoid high heat drying which can damage synthetic fibres. Air dry flat or hang dry to retain shape. If tumble drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
- Ironing: If needed, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, to protect the fabric finish. Avoid direct contact with hot iron on any prints or embellishments, if present.
- Storage: Store folded or hung to prevent unnecessary stretching or wrinkling.
