FAQs
Is this skirt suitable for formal events?
Yes, the tailored cut and dramatic drape make it highly appropriate for cocktail events, dinners, and evening functions.
How does the sizing run?
The skirt follows standard UK women's sizing. Because it is a wrap-style, it offers some adjustability at the waist to ensure a perfect fit.
Can I iron the skirt?
It is recommended to use a steamer rather than an iron to avoid damaging the polyester fabric or the gold-tone hardware.
What should I wear underneath for the best look?
The skirt is fully lined, but a seamless or nude-toned undergarment is always recommended for a polished appearance.
What material is this skirt made from?
This skirt is constructed from high-quality polyester, which is chosen for its wrinkle resistance and structural drape.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appearing wrinkled after storage
Use a handheld garment steamer on a low setting. Do not touch the hot steamer nozzle directly to the fabric or the metal hardware.
Safety pin hardware feels loose
Inspect the pin clasp for debris or misalignment. If the clasp is faulty, consult a professional tailor rather than forcing the metal, which could damage the polyester weave.
Static buildup affecting the drape
Lightly mist the inner lining with an anti-static spray or a diluted mixture of water and fabric softener to ensure the skirt hangs correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your skirt remains a staple in your wardrobe, proper care is essential. Given the tailored construction and gold-tone hardware, machine washing on a heavy cycle is discouraged. Instead, follow these maintenance tips: 1. Clean the garment by hand or use professional dry cleaning services to maintain the integrity of the drape and hardware. 2. When storing, hang the skirt on a proper garment hanger by the interior loops to prevent the weight of the fabric from stretching the waistband. 3. If wrinkles occur, use a garment steamer on a low setting, keeping distance from the metal hardware to avoid scratching. 4. Check the safety pin hardware periodically to ensure it is securely fastened to the fabric.
