FAQs

What is the best way to wash this skirt?

It is best to hand wash this skirt in cool water with a mild detergent. Lay flat to dry to maintain its shape and delicate detailing.

Can this skirt be worn with a top other than the matching shirt?

Yes, absolutely. The skirt can be styled with a simple fitted top, a crisp white blouse tucked in, or even a casual t-shirt for a more relaxed look.

What type of shoes pair well with this maxi skirt?

Flat leather sandals, block-heeled mules, or strappy heeled sandals all complement the maxi length and artisanal style of the skirt.

Is the cotton fabric suitable for very hot weather?

Yes, cotton is a breathable fabric making it a good choice for warm-weather dressing. The broderie detailing also allows for air circulation.

What occasions is this skirt best suited for?

This skirt is ideal for garden parties, summer weddings as a guest, elevated lunch dates, or any occasion where a refined, artisanal summer style is desired.

How do I care for the broderie detailing?

Handle with care to avoid snagging. Wash gently by hand and avoid harsh chemicals or high heat when ironing or drying.

Troubleshooting

Broderie detailing appears snagged

Gently try to smooth the snagged thread with your finger. If it's a significant snag, avoid pulling and consider professional tailoring for repair.

Skirt loses shape after washing

Ensure you are hand washing and laying flat to dry as recommended. Reshape the skirt while damp. Avoid machine washing or tumble drying.

Color bleeding (rare)

If concerned about color bleeding, wash separately for the first wash. Use cold water and a color-safe detergent.
