FAQs

What material is the skirt made of?

The skirt is made from polyurethane (PU), often referred to as faux leather, which gives it a sleek finish.

How should I clean the PU Tipped Military Bandage Midi Skirt?

It is recommended to spot clean the skirt with a damp cloth. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals.

What occasions is this skirt suitable for?

This skirt is versatile and can be styled for evening events, parties, smart-casual gatherings, or even as part of a sophisticated workwear ensemble.

Does the bandage style offer stretch?

Yes, the bandage construction typically offers some degree of stretch to conform to the body, but care should be taken not to overstretch it.

How can I best store this skirt to maintain its shape?

It is best to hang the skirt on a padded hanger to prevent creasing and maintain its intended silhouette. Avoid folding.

Can I iron the skirt?

You should not iron directly on the PU surface. If needed, use a cool iron on the reverse side only, with a protective cloth placed between the iron and the fabric.

What is the 'tipped band' detail?

The 'tipped band' refers to a decorative band, often with a contrasting trim or finish, incorporated into the design, giving it a military-inspired aesthetic.

Troubleshooting

PU material appears dull or sticky

Gently wipe the affected area with a slightly damp cloth. For persistent stickiness, a small amount of mild soap diluted in water may be used, followed by a clean damp cloth rinse. Ensure the skirt is completely dry before storing.

Skirt loses its shape

Ensure the skirt is stored correctly by hanging it on a padded hanger. Avoid compression or folding. If minor creasing occurs, try hanging it in a steamy bathroom for a short period or use a cool iron on the reverse side with a protective cloth.

Seams appear strained

Ensure the correct size is being worn. Overstretching the bandage material can strain seams. Check for any loose threads and carefully trim them without cutting the main seam.
