FAQs

What material is this skirt made from?

This skirt is crafted from premium wool, providing both structure and warmth.

Is the skirt machine washable?

Due to the delicate wool material and structured pleats, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain its quality.

How long is the skirt?

The skirt is a mini length, designed to sit at the upper thigh.

Does the check pattern align?

Yes, the checkered pattern is precisely cut to align through the box pleats for a seamless look.

Can I wear this in the summer?

While the wool is excellent for cooler seasons, it may be too warm for peak summer temperatures; it is best suited for transitional weather.

Are the gold-tone buttons functional?

The buttons are a decorative, military-inspired design detail located on the front placket.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their crisp edge

Take the garment to a professional dry cleaner to have the pleats professionally pressed and reset.

Loose buttons

Carefully tighten the thread on the back of the gold-tone buttons or consult a tailor to ensure they are securely fastened.

Fabric snagging

Avoid contact with sharp jewelry or rough surfaces that might pull the wool fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Karen Millen skirt, proper care is essential due to the wool content. Always consult the internal care label for specific washing instructions, though generally, professional dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the integrity of the pleats and the gold-tone button finish. When storing, ensure the skirt is hung properly to prevent wrinkles from forming in the fabric or the pleats.
