Can I machine wash this skirt?

What is the length of the midi skirt?
The skirt is described as midi length. Exact measurements can vary slightly by size, but it is designed to fall below the knee and typically around mid-calf.
Does the skirt run true to size?

Troubleshooting
Skirt feels too tight or restrictive.
Ensure you have selected the correct size by consulting the brand's size chart. If the fit is still uncomfortable, consider professional tailoring for minor adjustments. The slight stretch offers some give, but a tailored fit is key.
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage.
Gently steam the skirt or iron it on a low setting according to the care label. Hanging the skirt properly will also help minimize wrinkles.
Color transfer from the red check pattern.
Follow care instructions meticulously, especially during washing. Wash separately or with similar colors to prevent color bleeding. Avoid prolonged soaking.
