FAQs

What material is the skirt made of?

The skirt is made from a wool blend, featuring a textured tweed fabric.

How should I wash this skirt?

This skirt is dry clean only to maintain its shape and fabric quality.

Can the belt be removed?

The description implies the belt is an integral part of the design for creating a defined waistline, but typically such belts are detachable unless stated otherwise. Check the garment for belt loops and attachment points.

What occasions is this skirt suitable for?

It is suitable for sophisticated daywear, office wear, smart-casual events, and semi-formal gatherings.

What is the length of the skirt?

The skirt is described as mid-calf length.

How does the sizing run?

The skirt has a tailored fit. It is recommended to consult a size guide or consider your usual fit preferences for tailored garments.

Can I wear this in warmer weather?

While wool can be breathable, tweed can be warm. It is best suited for temperate or cooler weather, or air-conditioned environments.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the skirt on a low heat setting, or have it professionally dry-cleaned and pressed. Avoid direct high heat.

Belt is difficult to fasten.

Ensure the belt buckle holes are aligned correctly and the belt is not twisted. If the issue persists, check for any fabric obstructions.

Fabric feels rough after cleaning.

Ensure you followed the 'dry clean only' instruction. If hand-washed improperly, the wool fibers may have felted. Professional dry cleaning is recommended.
