FAQs
What occasions is this skirt suitable for?
This skirt is ideal for formal occasions such as weddings, parties, races, and evening events. Its elegant design makes it a versatile choice for sophisticated gatherings.
How do I determine the best size?
Refer to standard UK sizing charts. The waist detailing and tie sash offer some adjustability, but it's recommended to choose the size that best fits your waist and hip measurements.
Can the tie-waist sash be removed?
The sash is typically designed to coordinate with the skirt. While it may be detachable, it's best to check the garment's construction. It is intended to be worn for structure and fit.
What kind of top should I wear with this skirt?
A halterneck top, a fitted camisole, a delicate blouse, or a fine-gauge knit top would complement the skirt's elegant silhouette. The goal is to balance the volume of the skirt.
How long is the skirt?
The skirt has a maxi length, approximately 115cm from the waistband to the hem.
Is the fabric see-through?
No, the skirt is fully lined for a refined finish and opacity, ensuring comfortable wear.
How should I store this skirt?
It is best to hang the skirt to prevent excessive creasing. Ensure it is stored in a breathable garment bag away from direct sunlight or moisture.
Troubleshooting
Pleats losing their shape
Avoid harsh washing. Gentle hand wash and careful air drying are key. If needed, use a cool iron on the reverse, avoiding direct pressure on pleats.
Fabric appears creased after storage
Hang the skirt to allow creases to fall naturally. If necessary, gently steam the skirt on a low setting, keeping the steamer at a distance to protect the fabric's texture.
Tie-waist sash doesn't lay flat
Ensure the sash is tied evenly and not overly tightened. Adjust the knot and ensure the fabric is smoothed out before tying.
