FAQs

Does the skirt have a lining?

The skirt is designed as a standalone piece, but the high-quality polyester weight typically provides sufficient opacity for standard wear.

Is this skirt machine washable?

While the fabric is polyester, we recommend professional dry cleaning to maintain the structural integrity and crispness of the pleats.

How should I determine my size?

This item uses UK sizing. Refer to the size guide for specific measurements, noting that the waistband is structured and does not have elastic stretch.

Can I steam this skirt?

Yes, but use a low-heat setting and hover the steamer lightly over the fabric. Do not press the steamer head directly onto the pleats.

Are the pockets large enough for a phone?

The slit pockets are designed for small, flat items like keys or cards rather than bulky mobile devices.

Does the fabric wrinkle easily?

No, one of the primary benefits of this polyester material is its excellent resistance to wrinkling, making it ideal for travel.

Troubleshooting

Pleats beginning to lose their sharpness

Take the garment to a professional dry cleaner who specializes in pleated fabrics for a refresh.

Static cling

Use a light anti-static spray on the inside of the skirt or run a metal hanger along the inside surface to neutralize the charge.

Waistband feels slightly tight

Ensure the skirt is positioned at your natural high waist rather than the hips, as the structured band is designed for a higher fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your skirt, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Always check the interior label for specific washing instructions. Given the delicate nature of permanent pleats, professional dry cleaning is often recommended to preserve the fold structure.
  2. Storage: Hang the skirt using a skirt hanger that grips the waistband to prevent wrinkles and allow the pleats to hang vertically.
  3. Styling Compatibility: The blue hue is a neutral-adjacent tone that pairs exceptionally well with black, white, cream, or metallic accessories.
  4. Handling: Avoid excessive heat when steaming, as this can flatten the manufactured pleats over time.
