FAQs
How long is the skirt?
The skirt measures approximately 88cm in length, falling into the midi category.
Can I machine wash this skirt?
Due to the faux leather material and metallic hardware, machine washing is generally not recommended. Please refer to the care label inside the garment.
Does the waist have stretch?
The skirt features a structured, tailored waist design meant to define the silhouette, so it offers limited stretch.
What should I wear with this skirt?
It pairs beautifully with slim-fit tops, such as turtlenecks or bodysuits, to balance the volume of the pleated skirt.
Are the pockets functional?
Yes, the patch pockets at the hip are designed to be both aesthetic and functional.
Is the material heavy?
The skirt uses a viscose-backed faux leather, which is designed to have enough weight to hold its pleated shape without being overly heavy for all-day wear.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles in the faux leather
Hang the skirt in a bathroom while running a hot shower to use the steam, or use a handheld steamer from at least 6 inches away.
Pleats losing their crispness
Ensure the skirt is hung vertically when not in use. You may gently steam the pleats into place while the garment is hanging.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment uses faux leather, proper storage and cleaning are essential to prevent premature wear. To maintain the shape of the pleats, store the skirt hanging on a wide, skirt-specific hanger rather than folded, which can create permanent creases. If the skirt becomes wrinkled, use a low-heat steamer held at a safe distance; do not apply a direct iron to the faux leather surface. For spot cleaning, use a soft, damp microfiber cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals, alcohol-based cleaners, or abrasive brushes, as these can strip the coating from the faux leather. Always check the internal garment tag for specific wash instructions, though professional dry cleaning or delicate hand-wiping is recommended to preserve the integrity of the silver-tone buttons and the lining.
