FAQs
Is this skirt true to size?
The skirt is designed as a structured piece. It is recommended to consult the size guide and measure your natural waist to ensure the best fit.
Can I iron this skirt?
Do not use a traditional iron directly on the faux leather. If steaming is necessary, use a steamer on a low setting from the inside of the garment only.
What is the total length of the skirt?
The skirt measures approximately 88cm in length, which typically hits at mid-calf depending on your height.
Does the skirt have actual pockets?
Yes, the skirt features patch pocket detailing at the hip which provides a practical yet stylish touch.
Is the material waterproof?
While faux leather is water-resistant, it is not fully waterproof. It is best to avoid heavy rain to maintain the integrity of the seams and the leather coating.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles in the pleats
Hang the skirt in a steamy bathroom for 10 minutes to allow the heat and humidity to relax the fibers, then gently smooth with your hand.
Surface marks or fingerprints
Use a slightly dampened cloth with a tiny drop of mild soap and wipe gently, followed by a dry cloth wipe-down.
Buttons feel loose
Inspect the silver-tone studs periodically and if a backing seems loose, have it reinforced by a professional tailor to prevent hardware loss.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your skirt maintains its structure and shine, always follow the care label instructions. Because it features a faux leather coating, avoid machine washing or aggressive dry cleaning which can damage the synthetic layer. If the surface becomes dusty or smudged, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth and pat dry immediately with a clean microfiber towel.
Store the skirt hanging on a skirt-specific hanger with clips to prevent the pleats from creasing or losing their definition. Ensure it is kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can cause the faux leather finish to crack or discolor over time.
