FAQs

What season is this skirt most suitable for?

This skirt is primarily designed for autumn and winter, thanks to its warm stretch jersey brushed fabric.

What material is the skirt made of?

The skirt is crafted from a stretch jersey brushed fabric, with the main material being Polyester.

Does this skirt have pockets?

Yes, it features practical pocket details at the front.

Is the waist adjustable or elasticated?

The skirt features an elasticated waist for easy dressing and a comfortable, flexible fit.

Can this skirt be worn for formal occasions?

It is best suited for smart casual to semi-formal settings, such as office wear or sophisticated casual outings. For very formal events, it might not be the ideal choice.

How do I care for the brushed fabric?

To maintain the brushed texture, we recommend a gentle machine wash inside out, cold or lukewarm, and air drying flat. Avoid high heat and abrasive friction to prevent pilling.

What kind of fit does this skirt have?

It features a flattering A-line shape with a bias cut and a comfortable pull-on finish, designed for an accommodating and stylish fit.

Troubleshooting

Skirt feels too tight or too loose.

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on your measurements and the brand's size chart. The elasticated waist provides some flexibility, but if it's significantly off, consider exchanging for a different size.

Fabric appears to be pilling or bobbling.

Pilling can occur with brushed fabrics due to friction. Wash the skirt inside out on a gentle cycle. Use a fabric shaver or de-piller to gently remove existing pills. Avoid abrasive surfaces during wear and washing.

The elasticated waist feels uncomfortable after extended wear.

While designed for comfort, ensure the skirt is sitting at your natural waist or preferred position. If discomfort persists, check if the size is appropriate, as a waist that is too tight can cause issues.

Checked pattern seems uneven or distorted.

The skirt features a bias cut for a flattering drape, which inherently means the pattern will be angled rather than perfectly straight. This is a design feature, not a flaw. If the distortion seems excessive, check against product images or contact customer support.

Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and longevity of your skirt, follow these general guidelines for Polyester stretch jersey brushed fabric:

  1. Washing: We recommend a gentle machine wash, cold or lukewarm (up to 30°C/86°F), with similar colours. Use a mild detergent.
  2. Drying: Tumble drying on low heat is generally acceptable for polyester, but air drying by laying flat or hanging can help preserve the brushed texture and prevent shrinkage or damage. Avoid direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
  3. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting on the reverse side. Avoid high heat as polyester can melt.
  4. Bleaching: Do not use bleach, as it can damage the fabric and cause discolouration.
  5. Dry Cleaning: > Info needed: Check garment label for specific dry-cleaning recommendations.

Special Note for Brushed Fabric: To prevent pilling, wash inside out and avoid rubbing against abrasive surfaces during wear and washing.
