FAQs

What is the material composition?

The skirt is crafted from a high-quality compact stretch fabric designed to offer both structure and flexibility.

Is the skirt machine washable?

Due to the tailored construction and full lining, dry cleaning is the recommended care method to maintain the shape of the geometric panels.

What is the exact length of the skirt?

The skirt features a midi length of approximately 83cm.

Does this skirt have a zipper?

Yes, it typically features a discrete rear closure system to maintain the integrity of the tailored design.

Can I wear this to a wedding?

Absolutely, the artful colour block design is specifically intended to stand out at weddings, formal events, and evening occasions.

Does the fabric stretch significantly?

It uses a 'compact stretch' fabric, which provides enough give for comfort while remaining firm enough to provide a structured, polished silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appearing wrinkled after travel

Steam gently from the inside or hang the garment in a steamy bathroom for several minutes to allow fibers to relax.

Visible lines from undergarments

Switch to seamless or laser-cut undergarments designed for body-skimming silhouettes.

Small snag in the fabric

Do not pull the thread. Take the garment to a professional tailor who can pull the thread through to the inside to secure it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated architectural design suitable for multiple occasions
  • High-quality, durable compact stretch fabric provides a flattering fit
  • Fully lined for added structure and quality feel
  • Includes a rear vent for improved comfort and mobility

Cons

  • Fitted silhouette may require specific undergarments for a seamless look
  • Specific midi length may not suit all body heights without adjustment
  • Dry clean recommended due to tailored construction and lining

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this skirt is a tailored piece, maintaining its structure is key to longevity. It is recommended to follow the care label strictly, typically favoring professional dry cleaning to protect the integrity of the compact stretch fabric and the geometric panels. When storing, hang the skirt on a skirt hanger with clips to prevent deep creases. Because the fabric is designed to skim the body, it pairs best with seamless or laser-cut undergarments to prevent lines from showing through the fabric. If you find the length challenging, consult a professional tailor to ensure the geometric hem detail is preserved during any necessary alterations.
