FAQs
What occasions is this skirt suitable for?
The skirt is versatile and can be worn for casual outings, office wear (depending on dress code), and semi-formal events like dinners or parties. Its unique print makes it a great statement piece.
How should I wash this skirt?
It is machine washable. Follow the care label instructions, typically a cold or low-temperature wash on a gentle cycle is recommended to preserve the fabric and print.
What material is the skirt made of?
The skirt is primarily made of 99% Polyester with 1% Metal, contributing to its drape and unique texture.
Does the metal in the fabric require special care?
While machine washable, the 1% metal content suggests avoiding harsh chemicals or excessive heat. Stick to gentle washing and low-heat ironing.
What size should I order?
Refer to the brand's specific size chart for WHISTLES to find the best fit for UK size 12. Measurements for waist and length are usually provided.
Can I tumble dry the skirt?
It is not recommended to tumble dry the skirt. Air drying will help maintain its shape, colour, and fabric integrity.
What kind of tops pair well with this skirt?
Simple, solid-coloured tops like plain t-shirts, blouses, or fine-knit sweaters work well to balance the bold print. You can also opt for complementary colours found in the watercolour design.
Troubleshooting
Colour fading after washing
Ensure you are washing on a cold or low-temperature cycle and using a mild detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Check that you haven't used fabric softener, as it can sometimes react with synthetic materials. Air dry instead of tumble drying.
Print appears damaged
Avoid ironing directly on the print. Iron on a low setting on the reverse side of the fabric.
Skirt lost its shape
Ensure the skirt is laid flat to dry after washing. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric excessively.
