FAQs
What material is the skirt made of?
The skirt is made of denim with a metallic coating.
How should I wash this skirt?
It is recommended to hand wash or use a delicate machine wash cycle on a low temperature. Avoid bleach and do not tumble dry. Iron on a low heat setting on the reverse.
Is the front split adjustable?
The front split is a fixed design element for ease of movement and cannot be adjusted.
What occasions is this skirt suitable for?
This skirt is versatile and suitable for both smart-casual daytime events and more formal evening occasions, depending on how it is styled.
Does the metallic coating affect the breathability?
The coating may make the fabric slightly less breathable than un-coated denim. Proper care during washing will help maintain the fabric's integrity.
Can I wear this skirt for work?
Yes, it can be styled for work, especially in creative industries or for office-to-evening events. Pair it with a sophisticated blouse and blazer.
Troubleshooting
Metallic coating losing its shine
Ensure you are following the specific care instructions, especially regarding washing temperature and avoiding harsh chemicals. Hand washing and air drying are best for maintaining the finish.
Skirt feels restrictive
The front split is designed to aid movement. Ensure the waistband fits correctly. Consider styling with tops that balance the fitted silhouette.
Zipper or button fastening is stiff
Gently try to move the zipper up and down a few times. If it persists, a small amount of wax or graphite can be applied to the zipper teeth (use sparingly).
