FAQs

Is the skirt true to size?

Yes, the bandage fabric is designed to have a second-skin fit, but because of the elastane content, it will conform closely to your measurements.

Can I wear this to a wedding?

Absolutely, the sophisticated silhouette is ideal for black-tie dinners, weddings, and formal cocktail receptions.

How do I maintain the fringe?

Keep the fringe clean and tangle-free by hanging the skirt in a spacious area where the fringe can hang vertically without obstruction.

What top styles pair best with this skirt?

Fitted, sleeveless, or tucked-in tops are recommended to showcase the skirt's waistband and structured silhouette.

Is the skirt machine washable?

Due to the delicate nature of the bandage fabric and fringe, professional dry cleaning is highly recommended to maintain the garment's integrity.

Troubleshooting

Fringe strands appearing tangled

Gently finger-comb the strands downward starting from the top of the fringe layer to encourage them to fall naturally.

Fabric appearing stretched

Avoid long-term storage on hangers that do not support the waist properly; store the garment flat if necessary.

Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Karen Millen skirt in pristine condition, prioritize professional cleaning or follow the specific garment tag instructions for delicate fabrics. Because the material relies on an elastane blend, avoid over-stretching the fabric when putting it on.

Care Tips:

  • Storage: Hang the skirt carefully to prevent the fringe from bunching or becoming tangled.
  • Wrinkles: Use a garment steamer at a low setting, keeping a distance from the fabric, to smooth out the fringe if it becomes kinked during travel.
  • Avoid Friction: Be mindful of rough surfaces that could catch on the delicate fringe threads.
