Troubleshooting
Pleats are losing their shape after washing.
Ensure you are washing the skirt on a gentle cycle with cold water and hanging it immediately to air dry. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric. A steamer can help restore pleats.
Skirt appears creased or wrinkled.
Use a garment steamer on a low setting. Alternatively, hang the skirt in a steamy bathroom for a short period. Avoid direct ironing on the velvet surface.
Velvet fabric is attracting lint or dust.
Regularly use a lint roller or a soft clothing brush specifically designed for delicate fabrics to remove lint and dust.
The skirt feels less comfortable than expected around the waist.
While the waistband is elasticated, ensure you have selected the correct size (this variant is UK Size 16). If the issue persists, review stretching garments carefully.

Care Instructions
To ensure your Roman Velvet Pleated Midi Skirt maintains its luxurious look and elegant pleats, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash this skirt on a gentle cycle using cold water. It is recommended to wash it with similar colors to prevent dye transfer.
- Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach, which can damage the velvet fabric and affect its color.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Instead, hang the skirt to air dry immediately after washing. This helps to preserve the pleats and prevent excessive wrinkling. Avoid direct sunlight which can cause fading.
- Ironing: Direct ironing of velvet is generally not recommended as it can crush the pile and leave marks. If creases occur, use a garment steamer on a low setting or iron the skirt from the inside out on a very low heat setting, placing a clean cloth between the iron and the fabric.
- Storage: Store the skirt by hanging it to maintain its pleats and shape. Avoid folding it tightly for extended periods.
