FAQs
What type of occasions is this skirt suitable for?
The skirt is versatile and suitable for a range of occasions, from casual daytime wear when paired with simple tops to more elegant evening events when styled with blouses and heels. Its midi length and pleated design offer a sophisticated look.
How should I care for the 100% polyester fabric?
It is recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle or hand wash. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or lay flat to dry. Iron on a low setting if needed, preferably inside out or with a pressing cloth. Steaming is also an effective way to maintain pleats.
What is the length of the skirt?
The skirt is described as midi length, which typically falls below the knee and above the ankle, depending on individual height.
Can I adjust the waistband?
The skirt features an elasticated waistband with the woven Lacoste brand name. This design prioritizes comfort and a secure fit, but the waistband is not adjustable.
What does 'Pique effect' mean for the fabric?
Pique is a type of weaving technique that creates a textured, slightly raised pattern on the fabric surface, often resembling a honeycomb or waffle knit. It contributes to the fabric's structure and aesthetic.
What other colors and sizes are available?
This particular variant is blue and size 12. Other colors such as red and yellow, and various sizes like UK 6, 8, 10, and 14, are available in the Lacoste Long Pleated Skirt range.
Troubleshooting
Pleats are losing their shape
Ensure you are following the specific care instructions for washing and drying. Hand washing and laying flat to dry, or steaming, can help maintain pleat integrity. Avoid high heat drying.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Try a fabric softener on a gentle cycle or a lower heat setting for drying. Ensure all detergent residue is rinsed out.
Elastic waistband feels too tight or too loose
While this skirt features a non-adjustable elasticated waistband, ensure you have selected the correct size. Consult the size guide for accurate measurements. The waistband is designed for comfort, so a snug but not restrictive fit is expected.
