What material is the skirt made of?

How long is the skirt?

What is the best way to clean this skirt?
Dry cleaning is recommended. If hand washing, use cool water and a mild detergent, and lay flat to dry. Avoid harsh wringing or high heat.
Can this skirt be worn year-round?
While its elegant style suits warmer weather events, the maxi length and lining make it adaptable for cooler seasons when paired with appropriate tops and outerwear, such as blazers or fine knitwear.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears creased after storage.
Gently steam the skirt on a low setting or have it professionally dry-cleaned. Avoid direct ironing on the crinkle texture.
Tie-waist sash does not stay secure.
Ensure the sash is tied firmly. If slipping persists, consider adding a small, discreet stitch to secure it once tied, or a belt if the outfit allows.
Skirt feels slightly sheer despite lining.
Wear seamless nude undergarments to ensure a smooth silhouette and prevent any transparency.
