FAQs

Is the fabric stretchy?

The skirt is made from high-quality woven fabric, which typically has minimal natural stretch compared to knitwear, ensuring a structured fit.

Can I put this skirt in the dryer?

We recommend air-drying to maintain the integrity of the weave and protect the metallic button detailing.

How does the sizing run?

The skirt is designed for a straight fit, so it should align with standard UK sizing; refer to the brand's size guide for exact measurements.

Are the metallic buttons functional?

The buttons are primarily for aesthetic and design purposes, providing a decorative touch to the hip area.

Is the material the same for all colors?

No, please check the label on your specific item, as materials can vary between cotton and polyester blends depending on the specific variant.

Troubleshooting

Metallic buttons appear dull

Gently polish the buttons with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to restore shine without using harsh chemicals.

Skirt loses its shape after sitting

Smooth the fabric out with your hands when standing up; if persistent, a light steam will relax the fibers back to their original fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this skirt is available in both cotton and polyester blends across different variants, it is critical to consult the internal care label on your specific garment before cleaning. Generally, the woven fabric benefits from being washed on a gentle cycle in cool water to preserve the finish of the metallic buttons. Avoid using high-heat tumble drying, as this may compromise the structure of the woven material. When ironing, use a low temperature setting and cover the metallic buttons with a pressing cloth to prevent scratching or accidental heat damage. For the best longevity, hang the skirt in a cool, dry closet rather than folding it to prevent permanent creasing of the structured weave.
