FAQs

What is the primary material used?

This skirt is made from high-quality wool, which offers both warmth and structural integrity.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

It is not recommended. Due to the wool content and structured pleats, professional dry cleaning is the safest method to maintain its appearance.

How does the size 16 fit?

The skirt is designed as a structured fit. We recommend referencing standard UK sizing for the best result, keeping in mind the tailored nature of the waist.

Is the check pattern aligned?

Yes, the woven checkered pattern is precisely aligned throughout the entire piece, including across the pleats.

Can I wear this in the summer?

While wool is breathable, it is an insulating fabric. It is generally best suited for cooler seasons, such as autumn, winter, or early spring.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their crispness

Take the skirt to a professional dry cleaner and request a pleat press to restore the garment's original structure.

Wrinkling after sitting

Use a light handheld garment steamer on a low setting, keeping distance from the fabric to smooth out creases without compromising the wool fibers.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To keep your Karen Millen Check Pleat Mini Skirt in pristine condition, it is essential to prioritize proper storage and cleaning.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Given the wool construction and the integrity of the pleats, professional dry cleaning is strongly recommended to prevent shrinkage or loss of shape.
  2. Storage: Hang the skirt on a proper skirt hanger with clips that do not leave permanent indentations on the fabric. Avoid folding the skirt, as this can crush the pleats.
  3. Compatibility: This piece pairs best with tailored blazers, opaque tights, and ankle or knee-high boots. It is a size 16 fit, tailored to provide a structured waistline.
