FAQs
Is the skirt true to size?
The Roman Petite range is specifically tailored for shorter frames. If you are typically a size 8, the size 8 version is designed to fit your proportions comfortably.
Can I put this skirt in the dryer?
No. Never put faux leather items in a tumble dryer, as the heat will cause the material to crack, warp, or melt.
What is the best way to store the skirt?
Store the skirt on a clip hanger in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent the faux leather from drying out or fading over time.
Is the material machine washable?
No, this skirt should be spot cleaned only. Machine washing may compromise the structure and the finish of the faux leather.
Does the skirt come in different materials?
Yes, while this model is made of faux leather, other versions in the same style may be available in materials like suede depending on the current collection.
Is the waist elasticated?
This design features a structured waistband to maintain the A-line shape, focusing on a clean aesthetic rather than an elasticated fit.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles in the fabric
Use a handheld steamer on the lowest setting from the inside of the skirt, or hang the skirt in a bathroom while running a hot shower to allow the steam to relax the material.
Popper fastening feels stiff
Gently apply a tiny amount of clear wax or graphite to the popper mechanism to improve the ease of fastening and unfastening.
Material marks or scuffs
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, which can permanently damage the faux leather finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your A-line skirt remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines:
- Storage: Always hang the skirt on a proper skirt hanger to prevent the faux leather from creasing.
- Cleaning: Avoid machine washing. Instead, spot clean gently with a damp, soft cloth using mild, non-abrasive soap. Allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources.
- Compatibility: This item pairs best with delicate blouses, fitted turtlenecks, or tucked-in camisoles. For footwear, knee-high boots or ankle booties provide the most cohesive aesthetic for the knee-length cut.
- Avoid Heat: Do not iron directly on the faux leather surface. If wrinkles persist, use a steamer on a low setting from the inside of the garment, ensuring minimal contact.
