FAQs

What material is the skirt made from?

It is constructed from a high-quality faux leather with a viscose-backed interior for added comfort.

How long is the skirt?

The skirt measures approximately 88cm in length, falling into the midi range.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

No, machine washing is not recommended. Use a damp cloth to spot clean the exterior.

Does the belt come with the skirt?

Yes, the skirt features a structured belt detail at the waist for a tailored finish.

Are the buttons functional?

The double-row of silver-tone stud buttons provides a bold, utilitarian aesthetic and run the full length of the front.

How should I store this skirt to maintain the pleats?

Hang the skirt by its waistband using appropriate clips in a spacious area to ensure the pleats remain undisturbed.

Troubleshooting

Stubborn wrinkles or folds in the fabric

Hang the garment in a steam-filled bathroom or use a garment steamer on a very low setting from a distance; never press directly with a hot iron.

Buttons appearing dull

Gently buff the silver-tone buttons with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to restore their original shine.

Skirt losing its shape while hanging

Ensure you are using clips that secure the waistband firmly without stretching the material, and allow sufficient space in the closet so the pleats are not compressed.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Striking, fashion-forward aesthetic
  • High-quality faux leather finish
  • Tailored fit with integrated belt
  • Versatile for both professional and evening wear

Cons

  • Requires careful storage to preserve pleats
  • Faux leather can be sensitive to high heat
  • Mid-length silhouette may need specific styling based on height

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your skirt in optimal condition, avoid folding it tightly, as this can permanently crease the faux leather and distort the pleats. It is recommended to hang the skirt using skirt hangers that grip the waistband. When cleaning, wipe down the exterior with a soft, damp cloth; avoid machine washing or tumble drying, as high temperatures can damage the faux leather coating. Keep the garment away from direct heat sources like radiators, which may cause the material to crack or lose its texture over time.
