What material is the skirt made from?

How do I adjust the fit of the skirt?

The skirt comes with a coordinating belt featuring a statement buckle, which allows you to adjust and define the waist for a customized fit.

What are the washing instructions?

Please refer to the specific care label attached to the garment for detailed washing and care instructions. Cotton-rich fabrics often benefit from gentle washing.

Is the front split functional?

Yes, the elegant front split is designed for ease of movement, adding both practicality and a contemporary detail to the skirt.

What kind of shoes pair best with this skirt?

The mid-calf length makes it versatile. It pairs well with court shoes, heels, ankle boots, and elegant flats depending on the occasion.

Does the skirt have pockets?

Troubleshooting

Skirt feels too tight around the waist.

Adjust the belt to a looser setting or remove it entirely if the fit is still too snug.

Fabric appears creased after storage.

Hang the skirt on a padded hanger and allow it to air for a while. If creases persist, iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side.

Front split feels restrictive.

Ensure the skirt is the correct size. The split is designed for movement; if it feels overly tight, the skirt may be too small or too fitted.

Color fading after washing.

Always wash with similar colors and use a mild detergent. Check the care label for specific color-fastness recommendations, and consider washing inside out.
