Does this skirt have real pockets?

What is the best way to care for the faux leather trims?

> Info needed: Specific care instructions for the faux leather trims are not detailed in the product description. It is generally recommended to wipe `faux leather` gently with a damp cloth and avoid harsh detergents or high heat. Always check the garment's care label for precise guidance.

Troubleshooting

Skirt feels too tight or too loose.

Verify you have selected the correct size. The skirt features an elasticated waist which provides some flexibility, but a proper fit is essential. Consider checking the size guide if available.

Faux leather trim appears damaged or peeling.

Ensure you are following appropriate care instructions for faux leather (if provided on the garment label). Avoid harsh washing or drying methods. If damage persists, contact customer service.

Fabric appears creased or wrinkled.

The `stretch jersey fabric` is generally resistant to heavy creasing. Gently steam the skirt or use a low-heat iron, taking care to avoid the faux leather trims. Always check the care label for specific ironing instructions.

Brushed finish looks dull or matted.

Gently brush the fabric in one direction with a soft garment brush to restore its texture. Avoid rubbing vigorously, which can damage the finish. Refer to care label for fabric-specific instructions.

Concealed zip gets stuck.

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper as you attempt to move it. Do not force the zip, as this can cause damage.
