FAQs

Is this skirt suitable for taller women?

This skirt is specifically designed for petite women. While it may fit taller individuals, the proportions and length are optimized for shorter statures.

How do I know if the size 16 will fit me?

Please consult the M&Co sizing chart for detailed measurements. This skirt features an elasticated waistband for flexibility.

Can I wear this skirt in very hot weather?

Yes, the 100% Viscose material is breathable and lightweight, making it suitable for warm weather. The crinkle texture also adds to its airy feel.

How should I care for the crinkle texture?

To maintain the crinkle effect, avoid heavy ironing. Gentle washing and line drying or low-heat tumble drying are recommended. Steaming can refresh the texture.

What kind of occasions is this skirt best for?

It's highly versatile for casual wear, including weekends, holidays, and relaxed social gatherings. It can also be dressed up slightly for casual office environments or evening outings.

Does the elasticated waistband offer a lot of stretch?

The elasticated waistband is designed to provide a comfortable and flexible fit. It offers moderate stretch, and the additional tie allows for further adjustment.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears too long for petite frame

Consider professional hemming or wear with shoes that have a slight heel to adjust the length.

Fabric feels stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a gentle cycle and appropriate detergent for Viscose. A low heat tumble dry or light steaming can help soften the fabric.

Color has faded

Wash inside out in cold water with a color-safe detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
