How do I determine my correct size?
This model is available in various UK sizes. It is recommended to follow standard Karen Millen sizing charts based on your waist and hip measurements for the best fit.
Can this be machine washed?

Is the lining breathable?

Use a handheld garment steamer on a low setting, keeping it a few inches away from the fabric surface.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your skirt maintains its condition, proper care is essential. Given the satin construction, it is recommended to store the garment on a padded hanger to avoid creases and keep the structure intact. Avoid hanging with metallic clips that could snag the delicate twill weave. For cleaning, check the internal care label specifically; generally, satin twill should be dry cleaned or hand-washed in cool water with a mild detergent. Avoid wringing the fabric, as this can damage the fibers. If ironing is necessary, use a low-heat setting or a garment steamer held at a safe distance to remove wrinkles without scorching the finish.
