FAQs

What material is this skirt made from?

The skirt is made from a textured compact stretch fabric, primarily designed for a flattering fit and comfort.

How should I care for this skirt?

It is recommended to dry clean the skirt only to preserve its fabric quality and shape. Iron on a cool setting on the reverse side if needed.

Can the gold-tone buttons be unfastened?

No, the gold-tone buttons are purely decorative and do not function as fasteners.

What occasions is this skirt suitable for?

This skirt is highly versatile and suitable for a range of occasions, from professional office wear to evening events and elevated casual outings.

Does the stretch fabric mean I can size down?

While the stretch fabric offers comfort, the form-fitting cut is designed to accentuate shape. It's generally recommended to select your usual size for the intended fit.

What is the length of the midi skirt?

The skirt is a midi length, designed to fall below the knee and mid-calf, featuring a side split for ease of movement.

What kind of shoes pair best with this skirt?

The skirt pairs well with various footwear, including strappy heels, pointed flats, loafers, and ankle boots, depending on the desired occasion and style.

Troubleshooting

Fabric loses shape after wear.

Ensure the garment is dry-cleaned as per care instructions. The compact stretch fabric is designed to retain shape, but repeated improper washing can affect this. Try hanging it after wear to allow it to recover.

Buttons appear loose or damaged.

The gold-tone buttons are decorative. If any appear loose, contact customer service for repair or replacement options. Avoid snagging the fabric near the buttons.

Skirt feels restrictive despite stretch fabric.

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The form-fitting cut should allow for movement due to the side split and stretch. Consider pairing with footwear that doesn't impede the hemline.
