Product Information

Full details

The Cotton Traders Stretch Cord Midi Skirt is designed for women who value a blend of timeless, cosy style and practical comfort. Crafted from a cotton-rich corduroy fabric with added stretch, this skirt is an ideal seasonal wardrobe staple that transitions effortlessly from mild autumn days to chilly winter afternoons. While it provides excellent flexibility, potential buyers should note that the elasticated waistband is restricted to the rear, which may affect how the garment fits those with specific waist-to-hip proportions.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is the corduroy fabric very thick?

It is a medium-weight cotton-rich fabric designed for comfort and seasonal layering, not overly heavy or stiff.

Does the skirt have pockets?

The product description focuses on the cord material and waist construction; please check the garment interior for discrete side pockets.

How should I clean the skirt?

We recommend a cool machine wash on a delicate cycle and air drying to maintain the fabric's stretch and texture.

Is this a true-to-size fit?

The skirt is a UK size 8; the addition of stretch and the elasticated back waist helps accommodate various body shapes comfortably.

Can I wear this in the summer?

While corduroy is typically a cooler-weather fabric, the cotton-rich blend is breathable enough for mild spring or autumn evenings.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears flattened or crushed

Gently steam the garment from the inside out to raise the corduroy pile; avoid pressing directly with a hot iron.

Elastic waist feels too loose or tight

Since the elastic is located at the rear, ensure the skirt is positioned correctly on the hips. If the fit is consistently incorrect, it may require minor tailoring at the side seams.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Cotton Traders Stretch Cord Midi Skirt, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle to preserve the integrity of the cotton fibres and the stretch material.
  • Drying: Avoid tumble drying at high heat. Line dry in the shade to prevent the fabric from stiffening or shrinking.
  • Ironing: If needed, iron on a low setting on the reverse side of the fabric to avoid crushing the corduroy pile.
  • Compatibility: This UK size 8 skirt is best paired with fitted tops to balance the volume of the midi hemline. It is compatible with a wide range of footwear, including Chelsea boots, ballet flats, and ankle-length leather boots.
