FAQs
What is the material of the skirt?
The skirt is made from 100% Viscose, a lightweight woven material known for its soft drape and breathability, ideal for summer.
Is the waistband adjustable?
Yes, the skirt features a shirred elasticated waistband, which offers a flexible and comfortable fit that adapts to various body shapes without the need for additional adjustments.
How long is the skirt?
This maxi skirt has a length of approximately 100cm, providing elegant coverage and a flowing silhouette.
Can I machine wash this skirt?
Yes, the skirt is machine washable. However, it's crucial to use cold water and a gentle cycle. Always air dry flat or tumble dry on a very low heat setting to protect the Viscose fabric.
Is this skirt suitable for formal occasions?
While primarily designed for casual and semi-casual summer events, with the right styling (e.g., dressy top, elegant shoes, and accessories), it can be dressed up for certain smart-casual or outdoor evening occasions.
Does the skirt have pockets?
The product description does not specify the presence of pockets. Skirts of this design typically do not include them.
Troubleshooting
Skirt appears to have shrunk after washing.
Viscose is prone to shrinking with high heat. Always machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and air dry flat or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting. If shrinking has occurred, you can try to gently re-shape the garment by pulling it slightly while it is damp.
Fabric feels stiff or has lost its softness after washing.
This can happen if harsh detergents are used or if the fabric is over-dried. Use a mild detergent and consider adding a fabric conditioner during the wash cycle. Ensure proper drying methods as described in the care instructions, avoiding excessive heat.
The elastic waistband feels too tight or too loose.
The skirt features an elasticated waistband for flexibility. Please confirm you have selected the correct size (UK 18 for this model). If it consistently feels uncomfortable, you may need to consider if a different size or style would be more suitable. The elastic is designed to provide a snug yet comfortable fit.
Skirt wrinkles easily and is hard to keep smooth.
Viscose can wrinkle. To minimize this, remove the skirt from the washer promptly and air dry flat or hang. For stubborn wrinkles, use a garment steamer or iron on a low heat setting from the inside out, or use a pressing cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
This skirt is ready to wear straight out of the package. Follow these guidelines for optimal pairing and care.
Setup
Simply put it on! The elasticated waistband means no complicated fastenings are required, offering an immediate comfortable fit.
Compatibility
- Tops: Pairs effortlessly with basic T-shirts, camisoles, tank tops, and lightweight blouses. Both fitted and looser styles can work depending on the desired look.
- Footwear: Excellent with flat sandals, strappy heels, espadrilles, or wedges. Avoid heavy boots to maintain the skirt's airy feel.
- Accessories: Complement with delicate jewelry, woven bags, and sunglasses for a complete summer ensemble. A belt can be added to define the waist if preferred, though the shirred waist already provides structure.
Care for 100% Viscose
Proper care is crucial to maintain the look and longevity of your Viscose skirt.
- Machine Wash Cold: Always wash using a cold water setting to prevent potential shrinking or damage to the fabric.
- Gentle Cycle: Select the gentle or delicate cycle on your washing machine to protect the fabric's integrity and trim details.
- Mild Detergent: Use a mild, color-safe detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can degrade Viscose fibers.
- Avoid High Heat Drying: Air dry flat on a clean surface or hang to dry on a padded hanger. If using a dryer, opt for the lowest heat setting and remove while slightly damp to minimize shrinkage and wrinkling. Do not tumble dry on high heat.
- Ironing (Optional): If needed, iron on a low heat setting or silk setting. Iron the garment inside out, or use a pressing cloth to protect the fabric and print. Steaming is also an excellent option to remove wrinkles gently.
- Storage: Store on a hanger to maintain its shape, or folded neatly in a drawer.
