FAQs

Is this skirt true to size?

The skirt follows standard UK sizing. We recommend checking your measurement at the natural waist, as the tailored cut provides a precise fit.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

We recommend professional dry cleaning only to preserve the tailored structure and the metallic buckle finish.

What kind of top looks best with this skirt?

A tucked-in blouse or a fitted knit jumper works best to showcase the high waist and integrated belted detail.

Is the fabric heavy enough for winter?

Yes, the high-quality tailored design is robust enough for year-round wear, especially when paired with tights and boots.

Does the belt come off?

The belt is integrated into the waistband design to ensure a clean, seamless look.

Troubleshooting

Buckle appears scratched or dull

Gently polish the metallic hardware with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to restore shine.

Pleats losing their crisp edge

Take the garment to a professional tailor or dry cleaner for a steam press to reset the pleats.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the tailored design and the pleated panel, please observe the following care practices:

  • Storage: Hang the skirt using clips on a skirt hanger to ensure the pleats remain vertical and free from creasing.
  • Cleaning: Due to the tailored construction and metallic hardware, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to prevent deformation or damage to the buckle.
  • Styling Compatibility: Works best with fitted or tucked-in tops to highlight the high waist and belt detail. Avoid oversized, un-tucked layers which may obscure the tailored silhouette.
  • Sizing: This item follows standard UK sizing; ensure you measure your high waistline accurately to guarantee the tailored waistband fits correctly without restriction.
