FAQs
Is this skirt true to size?
Yes, it is designed for a standard petite fit. However, the shirred waist allows for some flexibility if you are between sizes.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is not recommended. Cotton is prone to shrinking under high heat; air drying is the best way to maintain the size and shape.
What is the material composition?
This skirt is made from high-quality, breathable cotton, making it perfect for warmer seasons.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The side pockets are designed for everyday convenience and can typically hold small items like keys or a phone.
Is the fabric see-through?
No, the cotton material used for this skirt is standard thickness and provides good opacity.
What does 'petite' mean in this context?
Petite indicates that the garment is cut with shorter proportions and adjusted hemlines to better fit women of shorter stature.
Troubleshooting
Shirred waist feels too tight
Ensure the waist is worn at your natural waistline; if it persists, stretch the elastic gently by hand or check if the size is appropriate for your measurements.
Wrinkling after washing
Remove the skirt promptly from the washing machine and shake it out before air drying to minimize deep creases.
Fabric feels slightly stiff
Use a gentle fabric softener during the rinse cycle or a steam iron on a low setting to soften the cotton fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As this is a garment, 'setup' involves ensuring the correct fit for your petite proportions. To keep the skirt in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash at a low temperature (30 degrees Celsius recommended) to prevent the cotton from shrinking.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible; avoid high-heat tumble drying as it can compromise the elasticity of the shirred waist.
- Ironing: Use a cool iron setting to remove wrinkles without scorching the cotton fibers.
- Storage: Hang or fold neatly to maintain the shape of the skirt.
