FAQs

What material is the skirt made from?

The skirt is made from 100% Polyester velvet fabric.

Is this skirt suitable for all seasons?

It is highlighted as a 'must-have for the Autumn Winter season' due to its velvet material, making it ideal for cooler weather styling.

How do I wash the velvet skirt?

The skirt is machine washable. We recommend using a gentle cycle with cold water and air drying to preserve the fabric and pleats.

What is the length of the skirt?

The skirt has a midi length, approximately 79cm.

Does the skirt have pockets?

Info needed: [Confirm if skirt has pockets, otherwise state it does not have pockets].

Can I wear this skirt for formal occasions?

Yes, its elegant pleated detail and luxurious velvet make it perfect for both casual and dressy occasions, including more formal events when paired appropriately.

How should I store the skirt to maintain the pleats?

It's best to hang the skirt on a padded hanger to help maintain its pleats and prevent the velvet from crushing.

Troubleshooting

Pleats appear flattened or less defined after washing.

After washing, gently reshape the pleats while the skirt is damp. Air dry by hanging or laying flat. Avoid twisting or wringing. A light steam can also help redefine pleats.

Velvet fabric looks dull or has pressure marks.

Velvet can sometimes show impressions. Gently brush the velvet pile with a soft brush (like a velvet brush) in the direction of the pile to restore its luster. Steaming can also help lift crushed areas.

Skirt feels too static or clings to legs.

This can happen with synthetic fabrics. Use an anti-static spray on the inside of the skirt, or wear a slip underneath. Ensure the skirt is fully dry before wearing, as dampness can exacerbate static.

Elastic waistband feels too tight or loose.

While the waistband is elasticated, it's designed for a specific size range. If it feels consistently uncomfortable, double-check the sizing against your measurements. Info needed: [Guidance for waistband adjustment if possible, otherwise reiterates fit].

Care Instructions

To ensure your Velvet Pleated Midi Skirt maintains its luxurious look and feel, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: The skirt is Machine Washable. Always use a gentle cycle with cold water to protect the velvet fabric and pleats. It's recommended to turn the skirt inside out before washing.
  • Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the velvet.
  • Drying: To preserve the pleats and prevent damage to the velvet, it's best to air dry the skirt. Lay it flat on a clean surface or hang it carefully on a padded hanger, allowing it to drip dry. Avoid direct sunlight or high heat.
  • Ironing: Velvet generally does not require ironing. If creasing occurs, use a steamer on the inside of the skirt or iron on the lowest setting with a pressing cloth on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct heat on the velvet pile.
  • Storage: Store the skirt by hanging it on a padded hanger to help maintain the pleats and prevent crushing of the velvet. Avoid folding it for extended periods.
