FAQs

Is this skirt machine washable?

Due to the structured nature of the pleats, it is recommended to follow the care label strictly. Most structured pleated skirts of this type require dry cleaning to preserve the integrity of the pleats.

Does the skirt include a belt?

The skirt includes functional belt loops, but a belt is not typically included with the purchase of the skirt itself.

How should I store the skirt?

Always hang the skirt using a skirt hanger with clips to allow the pleats to hang straight and prevent unwanted creasing.

Can I wear this in the winter?

Yes, it is designed to be styled with tights and boots, making it a versatile choice for colder weather when paired with seasonal knitwear.

What is the material like?

The skirt features a structured weave, which is chosen specifically to keep the pleats sitting flat and crisp throughout the day.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their sharpness

Lay the skirt flat and use a steamer carefully, or consult a professional cleaner to have the pleats professionally pressed.

Waistband feels too tight

Ensure you are measuring your natural waistline correctly, as the structured weave of this skirt has limited stretch compared to knit fabrics.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated and timeless tartan pattern
  • Flattering high-waisted cut
  • Versatile styling options with included belt loops
  • High-quality structured fabric that maintains shape

Cons

  • Requires careful laundering to maintain pleat structure
  • Limited to smart-casual or professional aesthetics
  • Mini length may not suit all personal style preferences

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your skirt, always store it hanging rather than folded to prevent creasing the pleats. If the skirt becomes wrinkled, avoid aggressive heat; use a garment steamer on a low setting, focusing on the fabric between the pleats. When pairing with belts, choose thinner widths that complement the gold-tone D-ring. For cleaning, check the interior garment label for specific fabric care instructions, as the structured weave typically requires delicate handling or professional dry cleaning to maintain the original factory press of the pleats.
