Product Information
Full details
The New Look Velvet Lace Trim Midi Skirt is designed for adults seeking a sophisticated, versatile piece for evening wear or elegant daytime events. Its key benefit lies in the combination of luxurious velvet fabric and a comfortable, elasticated high waist that ensures a flattering pencil silhouette without sacrificing ease of movement. One caveat is that the material requires careful maintenance to preserve the texture of the velvet and the integrity of the delicate lace trim.

FAQs
Is the waistband adjustable?
The waistband is elasticated, providing a flexible and comfortable fit that conforms to your natural waist.
Can I tumble dry this skirt?
No, it is recommended to lay the skirt flat to air dry to prevent damage to the velvet texture and the lace trim.
What is the length of the skirt?
This is a midi-length skirt, which typically sits at or below the mid-calf depending on your height.
Is the skirt stretchy?
The velvet fabric provides a pencil fit, which is structured, but the elasticated waistband offers stretch for comfort at the waist.
Should I wear a slip underneath?
No, the skirt is fully lined to provide comfort and structure, so an additional slip is not necessary.
Does the lace trim cover the entire hem?
The lace trim provides a tonal decorative detail along the hemline for a polished, finished look.
Troubleshooting
Visible wrinkles in the velvet fabric
Use a garment steamer at a safe distance rather than a direct iron to gently release creases.
Lace trim snagging on jewelry or accessories
Ensure that bracelets or watches are removed or secured so they do not catch on the delicate lace edges when moving.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your skirt remains in excellent condition, prioritize gentle care methods. As this is a velvet garment, it is best to avoid machine washing with abrasive fabrics. We recommend hand washing in cool water or using a delicate machine cycle inside a protective mesh garment bag to prevent the lace from snagging. Always turn the skirt inside out before washing to protect the velvet pile. To maintain the shape of the elasticated waistband, avoid wringing the fabric; instead, lay it flat on a clean towel to air dry. Do not use high-heat irons directly on the velvet, as this can crush the fabric pile; use a fabric steamer held at a distance if you need to remove wrinkles.
