FAQs

What occasions is this skirt best suited for?

The skirt is versatile and suitable for a range of occasions, including daytime events like brunches and garden parties, as well as more formal evening events when styled appropriately.

How should I store the skirt?

Store the skirt in a cool, dry place, ideally in a breathable garment bag. Avoid overcrowding in your wardrobe to minimize wrinkling.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

No, this skirt is made from a blend of linen, silk, and other delicate materials and requires dry cleaning only. Machine washing can damage the fabric.

What are the primary materials used?

The primary materials are 52% linen and 48% silk. It also features a 100% cotton lining, 100% polyester, and 100% silk.

How do I care for the floral print?

Care for the floral print by only dry cleaning the garment. Avoid direct heat or harsh chemicals that could affect the color or integrity of the print.

Is the skirt true to size?

Generally, Zimmermann sizing is consistent, but it's always recommended to check the specific size guide or consult customer reviews for the most accurate fit.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears wrinkled

Gently steam the skirt on a low setting, or have it professionally pressed. Avoid direct ironing on the print. Hanging in a steamy bathroom can also help alleviate minor wrinkles.

Fabric feels stiff after cleaning

Ensure the dry cleaning process was appropriate for silk and linen blends. Professional re-pressing might be needed to restore the fabric's natural drape.

Zipper is difficult to move

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to move the zipper up and down. A small application of graphite pencil lead or wax along the zipper teeth can help smooth its movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

This garment requires specialized care to maintain its appearance and fabric integrity. Given its material composition, it is not suitable for machine washing or tumble drying.

Care Instructions:

  • Dry Clean Only: To preserve the linen, silk, and other materials, professional dry cleaning is the recommended method.
  • Ironing: If ironing is necessary, use a low heat setting and iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct heat on printed areas or delicate embellishments.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a garment bag to protect from dust and potential snags. Avoid overcrowding your closet to prevent excessive wrinkling.
