FAQs
Is this skirt suitable for black-tie events?
Yes, its sophisticated silhouette and formal twill fabric make it highly appropriate for formal occasions including weddings and graduations.
What is the length of the skirt?
The skirt features a midi length of approximately 95cm.
How should I clean this skirt?
Due to the structural pleating and woven twill material, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain its shape.
Does the skirt come with a lining?
Yes, the skirt is fully lined to provide a polished, high-quality finish.
Can I machine wash this garment?
Machine washing is not recommended as it may damage the structure, pleating, and fabric finish. Please refer to the care label for specific instructions.
What top works best with this skirt?
A fitted top or bodysuit is best, as it balances the voluminous nature of the skirt and emphasizes the waist.
Troubleshooting
Pleats are losing their structure or becoming flat.
Avoid folding the garment. Store it hanging properly and use a garment steamer to gently revive the pleats.
Waistband feels too tight after a few hours.
Ensure the skirt is properly centered at your natural waistline. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, check that you have selected the correct UK size.
Fabric looks slightly wrinkled after transit.
Hang the skirt in a humid environment (like a bathroom while you shower) or use a garment steamer to release wrinkles without direct contact.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your skirt in pristine condition, always check the garment label for specific fabric care instructions. Given the structure of the woven twill and the detailing of the pleats, professional dry cleaning is generally recommended to preserve the garment's shape.
When storing the skirt, avoid folding it, as this can permanently crease the twill and flatten the pleating; instead, hang it by the waistband using a skirt hanger with clips. To ensure compatibility, consider the size carefully; the fitted waistband is the primary point of measurement, so refer to your standard Karen Millen sizing before finalizing your choice. If the skirt becomes wrinkled, use a professional garment steamer rather than a traditional iron to avoid damaging the synthetic blend or crushing the pleat structure.
