FAQs
What is the material of the Ella Bias Cut Skirt?
The skirt is made from 100% Acetate satin.
What is the length of the skirt?
The skirt has a maxi length of approximately 97cm.
How should I wash this skirt?
It is recommended to handwash the skirt in cool water only.
Can I wear this skirt for casual occasions?
While designed for occasionwear, it can be styled down for a chic, elevated casual look with the right pairings, such as a simple knit and boots.
Does the skirt come with a matching top?
The skirt is designed to match the Ella Cami Top, but it is sold separately.
What size should I choose if I'm between sizes?
The skirt has a regular fit and is cut on the bias. Consider your preferred fit; a size up might offer a slightly looser drape, while your usual size will adhere to the intended skim-the-body silhouette.
How do I care for the satin finish?
To maintain the satin's sheen, handwash in cool water, do not tumble dry, and iron on a low setting on the reverse side.
Troubleshooting
Skirt appears creased after unpacking.
Hang the skirt in a steamy bathroom for 15-20 minutes, or use a cool iron on the reverse side. Avoid direct high heat.
Satin fabric feels delicate.
Handle with care to avoid snags. Avoid wearing near rough surfaces or accessories that could catch the fabric.
Zip is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently work the zip up and down. Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. A small amount of clear wax or lip balm can help lubricate the zip if needed.
