FAQs
What is the material composition of the skirt?
The skirt is made from 45% Cotton, 45% Polyester, 7% Viscose, and 3% Elastane. It has a 100% Acetate lining.
What is the length of the skirt?
The skirt length is approximately 47cm.
Are the zip pockets functional or just decorative?
The silver zip pockets are functional, offering a practical space for small items while adding a stylish detail.
Can this skirt be worn year-round?
While the brushed jersey fabric and lining provide warmth, making it ideal for cooler seasons like autumn and winter, it may be too warm for peak summer. It's versatile enough for spring and milder days, but best suited for when you need a bit more warmth.
What does 'A-line' mean in terms of fit?
An A-line skirt is fitted at the waist and gradually widens towards the hem, resembling the letter 'A'. This cut is generally flattering for many body types as it offers comfort and freedom of movement without being clingy.
Is the skirt true to size?
This particular skirt is UK size 20. Roman is known for consistent sizing, but it's always recommended to check a brand's specific size chart if available, or consider your usual UK dress size for A-line styles.
How should I store this skirt to maintain its shape?
It's best to hang the skirt in your wardrobe. This helps maintain its A-line shape and prevents creases.
Troubleshooting
Skirt feels stiff or rough after washing.
Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and a mild detergent. Adding a fabric softener designed for blended fabrics during the rinse cycle can help restore softness.
Zippers on pockets snag or are difficult to move.
Carefully check for any loose threads or fabric caught in the zipper teeth. You can also rub a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth to help them glide more smoothly.
Skirt appears wrinkled after drying.
Remove the skirt from the dryer promptly to prevent wrinkles from setting. If line drying, smooth it out before hanging. If wrinkles persist, iron on a low heat setting, using a protective cloth over the fabric.
Colour appears faded after washing.
Always wash in cold water and with like colors. Avoid harsh detergents and direct sunlight when drying for prolonged periods, as this can contribute to color fading.
Skirt doesn't drape correctly or feels stretched.
Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions, especially regarding washing temperature and drying method. High heat can damage elastane, affecting the fabric's stretch and drape. Air drying flat is often best for maintaining shape.
