FAQs

What occasions is this skirt suitable for?

This skirt is highly versatile and suitable for a range of occasions, including garden parties, gallery openings, sophisticated brunches, office wear when paired appropriately, and evening events.

How does the linen-blend fabric perform in different weather?

The linen-blend offers breathability, making it comfortable in warmer weather. It can also be styled for cooler seasons with appropriate layering, such as sweaters and boots.

What size should I order?

Please refer to the size chart provided by Karen Millen for accurate measurements. The skirt has a high-waisted, tailored fit, so precise measurements are recommended.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

Dry cleaning is the recommended method to maintain the integrity of the fabric and structure. Machine washing is not advised as it can damage the linen blend and cause excessive wrinkling or shrinkage.

How should I store the skirt to prevent damage?

Hang the skirt on a padded hanger in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding for extended periods to minimize creasing.

Does the button-front detail function, or is it purely decorative?

The button-front detailing is functional, allowing you to fasten the skirt. Ensure buttons are handled gently to maintain their security.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears wrinkled after wear.

This is characteristic of linen. Hang the garment in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a steam iron on a low setting to smooth out wrinkles. Ensure proper ironing technique as per care instructions.

Buttons feel loose.

Carefully hand-tighten the buttons using a needle and thread if necessary. Avoid excessive force when buttoning and unbuttoning.

Fabric feels stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and cold water. Avoid harsh chemicals or excessive agitation. If dry cleaning, ensure the cleaner is experienced with delicate fabrics.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and shape of your linen-blend midi skirt, please adhere to the following care guidelines:
