Product Information
Full details
The Joules Ada Pleated Mini Skirt is designed for the modern adult woman who values a refined, preppy aesthetic for weekend outings or evening engagements. Its primary benefit lies in the structured, rhythmic swing provided by the front pleats, which create an elegant and leg-elongating silhouette. While the skirt offers a sophisticated style, prospective buyers should note that as a mini skirt, its shorter length may require careful consideration regarding styling for professional or formal environments.

FAQs
What size does the UK 6 equate to in international sizing?
A UK 6 is generally equivalent to an extra-small (XS) or a US 2, though we recommend checking your measurements against the brand's specific size chart.
Can this skirt be worn in winter?
Yes, it is excellent for autumn and winter when paired with opaque tights, tall boots, and a warm, layered sweater.
Is the material machine washable?
Please check the care label on your specific garment, but generally, a gentle cold machine wash is suitable for this fabric type.
What is the primary material used?
This variant utilizes high-quality fabrics designed to maintain a crisp, refined drape.
Does the skirt have pockets?
The design focuses on a clean, sleek silhouette, so it does not feature integrated pockets.
Troubleshooting
Pleats losing their crisp shape
Gently steam the skirt using a handheld steamer from a safe distance, being careful not to press down directly on the fabric to preserve the structure.
Static cling affecting the drape
Lightly mist the interior of the garment with a fabric-safe anti-static spray or use a small amount of fabric softener in the rinse cycle during cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Joules Ada Pleated Mini Skirt retains its structured pleats and crisp drape, it is essential to follow the garment care label attached to the interior of the skirt. Typically, skirts of this material quality should be machine washed on a gentle cycle or hand-washed in cold water to prevent pleat distortion. Avoid aggressive tumble drying; instead, hang the skirt to dry naturally in a shaded area. When storing, it is recommended to use a skirt hanger with clips to maintain the alignment of the pleats and prevent unnecessary creasing. Compatibility-wise, the neutral brown and checkered pattern makes it highly compatible with earth tones, cream knits, and navy blue blazers.
