FAQs
What material is the Roman Black Skater Skirt made from?
The skirt is made from a comfortable stretch jersey blend, consisting of 86% Viscose, 10% Polyamide, and 4% Elastane.
What is the approximate length of this skirt?
The skirt has an approximate length of 50cm, which is a classic skater skirt length designed to be playful and feminine.
Is this skirt suitable for all body types?
The skater style silhouette is generally known for being flattering on many body types, as it cinches at the waist and flares out, creating a balanced and feminine shape.
Can I wear this skirt for work or formal events?
This skirt is highly versatile for smart-casual and daytime wear. It can be dressed up for work by pairing it with a blazer and smart top. For very formal events, its playful style might be less appropriate, but for most office environments, it can be a chic option.
How should I care for this skirt to make it last?
The skirt is machine washable. For best results and longevity, always follow the specific care instructions on the garment's label. Generally, use a mild detergent, avoid harsh bleaches, and air dry or tumble dry on a low setting.
Does the skirt have a zip or buttons?
No, the skirt features a comfortable elasticated waist and a pull-on design, meaning it has no zips or buttons for easy and convenient wear.
Troubleshooting
The skirt feels tighter or looser than expected.
The skirt is designed to be 'true to size' and has a 'regular fit'. If the fit is off, first verify that you have ordered your correct UK dress size. If the waist feels tight, gently stretch the elastic while wearing for a few minutes; if consistently uncomfortable, consider exchanging for the next size up. If it feels too loose, check the elasticated waist for any twisting or damage. Refer to Roman's size guide if available, for exact measurements.
Fabric appears creased or wrinkled after washing.
While stretch jersey is generally resilient, some creasing can occur. After machine washing, remove the skirt promptly. Air dry flat or hang immediately to allow gravity to help smooth out wrinkles. If needed, iron the skirt on a low heat setting, avoiding direct high heat on the elastic waistband.
Elastic in the waistband seems to be losing its stretch.
To preserve the elasticity, always adhere to the 'machine washable' care instructions, particularly regarding water temperature. High heat during washing or drying can degrade elastic fibers over time. Avoid overstretching the waistband when putting on or taking off the skirt. Store folded or hung to prevent prolonged stretching.
