FAQs

What is the material composition of this skirt?

This skirt is crafted from wool, chosen for its structure, warmth, and high-end aesthetic.

How long is the skirt?

The skirt falls to a midi length, measuring approximately 83cm.

Is this skirt suitable for machine washing?

Due to the tailored wool construction, we strongly recommend professional dry cleaning only.

Does the front split affect the fit?

The split is designed to provide ease of movement while maintaining a composed and sophisticated silhouette.

Can I wear this in the summer?

Wool is a breathable natural fiber, but this skirt is best suited for autumn, winter, and spring temperatures.

How should I style the high waistband?

The waistband is designed to be visible; tuck in blouses or fine-knit tops to showcase the clean, polished finish.

Troubleshooting

Wrinkling of the fabric

Hang the garment in a steamy bathroom or use a low-heat garment steamer, keeping the nozzle away from direct contact with the wool.

Loss of structure at the front fold

Ensure the skirt is stored flat or on a proper hanger; if the fold is flattened, take it to a professional cleaner for pressing.

Fabric pilling over time

Use a delicate fabric shaver designed for wool to gently remove surface lint and pills, moving in the direction of the weave.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Karen Millen Tailored Fold Detail Midi Skirt, proper care is essential. Given the wool composition, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to prevent shrinking or damage to the architectural structure of the fold. When storing, use a high-quality, padded clothes hanger to prevent unsightly creases or sagging at the waistband. For minor maintenance, use a garment steamer on a low heat setting to freshen the fabric, being careful to avoid flattening the front fold detail.
