FAQs

What material is the Paula Midi Skirt made from?

The skirt is crafted from 100% cotton poplin fabric, known for its breathability and crisp finish.

How should I wash this skirt?

It is machine washable on a gentle cycle with similar colors at a low temperature (e.g., 30°C). Line dry or tumble dry on low heat.

What does 'ric rac detailing' mean?

Ric rac, also known as ric-rac or rickrack, is a flat braid of zigzag or waved pattern, used as a trim on garments. It adds a decorative touch to the tiers and hemline of this skirt.

Is this skirt suitable for formal occasions?

The midi length and tiered design offer a sophisticated look that can be adapted for semi-formal occasions when paired with dressier tops and accessories. For very formal events, it might be less suitable than other options.

What is the best way to iron the skirt?

Iron on a medium heat setting. It's often best to iron while the garment is slightly damp or use a steam iron. Be mindful of the ric rac detailing.

What does UK size 18 mean?

This refers to the UK women's dress sizing system. It's advisable to check a standard UK size conversion chart if you are unfamiliar with this sizing.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears wrinkled after washing.

Ensure the skirt is ironed while slightly damp or use a steam iron on a medium setting. Line drying can also help minimize wrinkles compared to tumble drying.

Ric rac detailing looks flattened or distorted.

Gently reshape the ric rac detailing by hand after washing and before drying. Avoid excessive heat during ironing on this specific area.

Elastic waistband feels too tight or loose.

While the waistband is elasticated, minor adjustments might be needed depending on personal fit. If significantly uncomfortable, consider professional tailoring.
