What occasions is this skirt best suited for?
This skirt is ideal for a range of occasions, from professional environments like client meetings and office wear, to social events such as smart lunches, gallery openings, and wedding guest attire. Its sophisticated design makes it adaptable.
How should I style the high waist?
The high waist is designed to be a focal point. Tucking in fine-knit tops, blouses, or even slim-fit t-shirts works well. Adding a belt can further accentuate the waistline and complete the look.
What kind of shoes complement this skirt?
The midi length and full silhouette pair well with various shoe styles. Consider heeled sandals, block heels, heeled mules, elegant flats, or pointed-toe heels to elongate the leg and enhance the overall sophistication.
Can I wear this skirt in warmer weather?
Yes, the viscose blend offers a breathable quality suitable for warmer weather. Pairing it with lighter tops and sandals will make it comfortable for daytime wear.
What are the care instructions for the viscose blend?
Generally, hand wash in cold water or use a gentle machine cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid tumble drying; instead, lay flat or hang to dry. Iron on a low heat setting. Always refer to the garment's specific care label for the most accurate guidance.
What is the length of the midi skirt?
The midi length sits at approximately 84cm from the waist down, offering a refined and contemporary hemline.
Troubleshooting
Skirt loses shape after washing.
Ensure you are following the specific care instructions for viscose blends, which often involve hand washing in cold water and laying flat to dry. Avoid machine drying.
Creases are difficult to remove.
Try ironing the skirt on a low heat setting while it is slightly damp. Alternatively, use a pressing cloth to protect the fabric. Steaming can also help to release stubborn creases.
