What is the length of the skirt?
The skirt is a maxi length, approximately 89cm from the waist to the hem.
Is the elastic waistband comfortable?

Can this skirt be worn for both casual and formal occasions?

Does the skirt have a lining?
Info needed: Please refer to the product details on the retailer's website or check the garment directly, as lining information is not provided here.
How should I store the skirt to keep its pleats?
To best preserve the pleats, store the skirt by hanging it in your wardrobe. Avoid folding it for extended periods, which can flatten the pleats.
Is this skirt true to size?
The product description states the skirt is 'True to size' with a 'Regular fit'. We recommend choosing your usual UK dress size.
Troubleshooting
Pleats losing their shape after washing.
Ensure you are washing on a gentle cycle and avoiding tumble drying. Hang the skirt immediately after washing, allowing gravity to help maintain the pleats. If needed, a low-heat steam can help redefine them.
Skirt feels too tight or too loose.
This skirt has a regular fit and is designed to be true to size. Ensure you have selected the correct UK dress size. Refer to a Roman brand size guide if available, as individual brand sizing can vary. The elastic waistband provides comfort, but proper sizing is key.
Fabric appears creased or wrinkled.
While the polyester blend resists wrinkles, persistent creases can occur. Gently steam the skirt or iron on a very low heat setting. Iron from the inside out to protect the print and avoid flattening the pleats. Hanging the skirt promptly after wear or washing helps prevent wrinkles.
Static cling in the skirt.
Static cling is common with synthetic fabrics like polyester. Use an anti-static spray on the skirt or wash it with a fabric softener. Ensuring proper humidity in your environment can also help reduce static.

Care Instructions
Proper care helps maintain the skirt's pleats and fabric quality.
- Washing: Machine washable. Always check the care label for specific temperature recommendations, but generally, wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
- Drying: To preserve the pleats and fabric, hang the skirt to dry immediately after washing. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the pleats and fabric composition.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, to protect the print and pleats. Avoid pressing directly on the pleats to maintain their sharpness; steam can be a gentler option.
- Storage: Hang the skirt in your wardrobe to prevent the pleats from flattening or wrinkling.
