The Karen Millen Petite High Waisted Textured Knit Full Maxi Skirt is designed specifically for petite individuals seeking a refined, elongating silhouette without the need for alterations. This garment offers a sophisticated, fluid movement through its iconic knife pleats and rich, textured knit fabric, making it a versatile choice for both professional daywear and elegant evening events. While the 89cm length provides a perfect proportional fit for shorter frames, users should note that the polyester material requires specific care to maintain the integrity of the textured finish and pleat structure.

This model is specifically designed as a petite length (89cm). Individuals taller than 5'4" may find the length sits higher on the ankle than a traditional maxi.
No, tumble drying is not recommended as the heat can permanently damage the pleat structure and cause the synthetic fibers to shrink or warp.
The skirt is constructed from high-quality polyester, chosen for its durability and ability to hold deep, consistent pleats.
Store by hanging with a wide-clip hanger attached to the waistband, or fold it carefully to prevent heavy creasing on the pleated sections.
Yes, the textured knit provides more substance than light summer fabrics, making it suitable for transitional weather when paired with tights or boots.
The waistband is designed to be smooth and fitted to maintain a clean silhouette, offering limited stretch to ensure a secure, high-waisted fit.
Avoid heat and aggressive washing. Gently shake out the skirt after wearing and store it properly to allow the fabric to reset.
Ensure the waistband is positioned at the natural narrowest part of your waist; avoid pulling it down onto the hips to maintain the intended fit.
Lightly mist the inner lining or the fabric with a static guard spray or a mixture of water and fabric softener.
To ensure your Karen Millen skirt maintains its form, prioritize gentle handling. Because of the delicate nature of the knife pleats, avoid aggressive machine agitation. It is highly recommended to hand wash or use a delicate machine cycle with cold water. Always lay the skirt flat to dry rather than hanging it while soaking wet, as the weight of the water can stretch the knit fabric and compromise the pleats. When storing, keep the garment folded or hung with skirt-friendly clips to prevent distortion of the waistband. The skirt is best paired with fitted tops to balance the volume of the full-length pleated hem.
