FAQs

Is the fabric see-through?

No, the high-quality cotton poplin is opaque enough to be worn without the need for an additional slip.

How does the sizing work for petite frames?

The skirt is specifically engineered for petite proportions, meaning the length and waist placement are adjusted to prevent the skirt from dragging or looking too bulky.

Can I tumble dry this skirt?

It is recommended to air dry this garment to protect the cotton fibers and the elasticity of the shirred waistband.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

The pockets are designed for small essentials like keys or lip balm; they may not accommodate larger modern smartphones securely.

Will the shirring stretch out over time?

High-quality shirring is designed to maintain its shape, but ensure you avoid excessive pulling during the dressing process to keep the elastic integrity intact.

Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles after storage

Use a handheld steamer on the low setting to quickly refresh the fabric without needing an ironing board.

Elastic seems too tight

The shirred section is designed for a secure fit; wearing it slightly higher on the waist can often provide a more comfortable feel.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your skirt lasts throughout the season, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle to preserve the integrity of the shirred elastic.
  2. Drying: Air dry by hanging the skirt flat or over a hanger to prevent harsh creasing.
  3. Ironing: To maintain that crisp poplin look, use a medium-heat iron or a handheld steamer to smooth out any wrinkles after washing.
  4. Storage: Store by hanging to maintain the shape of the shirred waist and prevent deep fold marks in the cotton poplin.
