FAQs
Is this skirt suitable for people taller than 5'3"?
This garment is specifically cut for a petite frame. Those taller than 5'3" may find the length and waist-to-hip ratio do not align with their proportions.
What does 'techno' fabric mean?
Techno fabric is a man-made, high-density weave that is known for its structure, durability, and ability to hold a tailored shape, often resisting wrinkles better than natural fibers.
How should I measure my waist for a size 6?
Measure at the narrowest part of your torso, typically above the belly button and below the rib cage, ensuring the tape is snug but not constricting.
Can I machine wash this skirt?
We recommend following the care label attached to your specific garment; if it states 'dry clean only,' avoid machine washing to preserve the fabric's integrity.
Does the blue color fade easily?
The fabric is selected for color retention, but to prevent fading, wash inside out in cold water and avoid direct, prolonged sunlight during air drying.
Troubleshooting
Visible creasing after storage
Use a garment steamer on a low heat setting to gently release wrinkles without damaging the woven fibers.
Fabric appears to have static cling
Lightly mist the inner lining with water or use a dedicated anti-static spray.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your skirt maintains its structure, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Check the internal care label for specific temperature requirements. Generally, a gentle cycle or dry cleaning is recommended for high-quality woven fabrics.
- Storage: Store on a dedicated skirt hanger to prevent unnecessary creasing or fabric stress.
- Compatibility: This item coordinates beautifully with silk camisoles, light knit sweaters, or tailored button-downs. Ensure the hem is kept clean by avoiding contact with sharp edges or abrasive surfaces.
- Measurements: Since this is a petite-specific item, always verify your natural waist and hip measurements against the Karen Millen size chart before use.
