Troubleshooting
Fabric Pilling
Pilling is common with knitted garments due to friction. Gently remove pills using a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzer. Wash inside out and avoid excessive rubbing.
Loss of Shape or Stretching
Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions, especially laying flat to dry. Avoid hanging the skirt when wet or for long periods, as the weight can stretch the knit.
Snags or Runs in Fabric
Handle the knitted fabric with care, avoiding contact with sharp objects or rough surfaces. For small snags, gently use a needle to pull the loose thread to the inside of the garment.
Waistband feels uncomfortable or too tight
The elasticated waistband is designed for comfort. If it feels too tight, ensure you have chosen the correct size. Over-stretching the waistband during wear or storage can affect its elasticity over time.

- Effortless Versatility: Easily styled for both professional settings and casual events.

Care and Styling
Initial Preparation
Upon receiving your skirt, remove any packaging and gently unfold. A light steaming or hanging for a short period can help remove any creases from transit before its first wear.
Compatibility & Styling
This midi skirt is a versatile foundational piece for your wardrobe.
- Tops: Works well with fitted tops, tucked-in blouses, knit sweaters, and even casual t-shirts.
- Outerwear: Can be layered with blazers, cardigans, denim jackets, or tailored coats.
- Footwear: Excellent with boots (ankle, knee-high), heels, or fashion trainers depending on the desired look.
Care Instructions
To ensure your Roman Knitted Midi Skirt maintains its quality and shape, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine washable. For best results and to prevent stretching or damage, wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Place inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the knit.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent formulated for delicate fabrics.
- Drying: Lay flat to dry on a clean, dry surface. Avoid hanging when wet, as this can cause the skirt to stretch out of shape due to the weight of the water. Tumble drying is generally not recommended for knitted garments due to potential shrinkage or damage.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, to avoid direct contact with the fabric surface and preserve its knit texture.
- Storage: Store folded in a drawer or on a padded hanger to maintain its shape and prevent stretching.
