FAQs
What material is the Karen Millen Maxi Skirt made from?
The skirt is made from a high-quality sheer lace fabric with woven construction and godet inserts.
Can I wear this skirt for casual occasions?
Yes, while it's designed for dressed-up glamour, it can be styled down with items like a cropped t-shirt and boots for unique holiday or casual-chic looks.
What is the fit like?
The skirt features a comfortable, high-waistline and a flowing silhouette enhanced by godet inserts, designed for a flattering fit.
How should I wash this skirt?
Hand washing in cool water with a mild detergent is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals and machine drying.
Is the lining included with the skirt?
No, the skirt is made of sheer lace, and a separate lining or slip may be needed depending on your styling preference and desired opacity.
What does 'godet design' mean?
A godet is an extra panel of fabric sewn into a garment, typically at the hem or in the seam, to add fullness and enhance the flow of the material. In this skirt, it contributes to the flowing silhouette.
What is the length of the skirt?
The skirt is a maxi length, meaning it is designed to be full-length.
Troubleshooting
Skirt appears too sheer for comfort
Layer the skirt with a slip or a shorter underskirt for added opacity. Alternatively, pair it with longer tops or tunics that provide coverage.
Lace snagged or damaged
Carefully trim any loose threads with small scissors. For more significant damage, professional repair might be necessary. Handle the garment with care to prevent future snags.
Skirt loses shape after washing
Ensure the skirt is laid flat to dry completely. Avoid tumble drying, as heat can alter the fabric's structure. Gentle reshaping while damp may help.
