Can I wear this skirt in warm weather?

Is the skirt true to size?

Troubleshooting

The white fabric appears somewhat sheer in certain lighting.

Wear nude-colored, seamless undergarments that closely match your skin tone. This helps to create a smooth line and minimizes visibility through lighter fabrics.

The skirt wrinkles easily after washing or wear.

After machine washing, promptly remove the skirt and hang it to dry on a hanger. If wrinkles persist, iron on a low heat setting, preferably inside out, or use a garment steamer for quick touch-ups.

The elastic waistband feels too tight or loose.

While the skirt is described as 'true to size,' individual body shapes vary. Ensure you have selected the correct UK size 14 based on your waist and hip measurements. If the fit is consistently uncomfortable, consider trying a different size in the range.

The back split seems to open too much or feel restrictive.

The back split is designed for ease of movement. Ensure the skirt is worn at the natural waist to allow the split to sit correctly. If it feels restrictive, check if the skirt is twisted or if the fabric is catching on anything. Adjusting your posture can also help.
