FAQs

What material is the Stretch Bodycon Pencil Skirt made from?

The skirt is crafted from an ultra-comfortable elasticated stretch bengaline fabric, with Polyester as the primary material, providing both flexibility and a crisp feel.

What is the length of this skirt?

The skirt has a front length of 22" (56cms), designed to rest elegantly on the knee.

Is this skirt suitable for professional work environments?

Yes, its sophisticated appearance with a plain front and back, combined with its slim fit, makes it perfect for professional settings, interviews, and business meetings.

Does the skirt have pockets?

No, this skirt features a plain front and back design for a sleek, streamlined appearance, and does not include pockets.

How should I care for this skirt?

It is recommended to machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors, and either tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Iron on a low heat setting if necessary to maintain its crisp finish.

How does the back vent improve comfort?

The back vent is specifically crafted to provide a less restrictive feel and allows for greater ease of movement, making the skirt comfortable for all-day wear and various activities.

What does 'bodycon' fit mean?

Bodycon refers to a style of clothing designed to be very close-fitting and to hug the body's natural curves, creating a flattering and sculpted silhouette.

Troubleshooting

The skirt feels too tight or uncomfortable.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Refer to the UK size chart (typically found in product pictures) to verify measurements. The bodycon fit is designed to be snug, but it should not restrict movement uncomfortably. If it does, consider trying the next size up.

The concealed back zip is difficult to fasten or gets stuck.

Ensure the skirt is properly aligned and not twisted when zipping. Try lubricating the zipper teeth gently with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant. If the issue persists, check for any fabric caught in the zipper.

Fabric appears wrinkled after washing or wear.

Iron the skirt on a low heat setting. You can also use a garment steamer to gently remove wrinkles. Always check the care label for specific ironing instructions for polyester blends.

Skirt does not sit correctly at the waist.

The skirt features a high-rise waist. Ensure it is pulled up to sit comfortably at your natural waistline to benefit from its tummy-slimming and supportive design. Adjusting your top may also help achieve a smoother line.

Care

  • Storage: Store on a hanger to maintain its pencil skirt shape and prevent creases.
