FAQs

What material is the skirt made of?

The skirt is made from a comfortable stretch jersey fabric, composed of 80% Polyester, 17% Viscose, and 3% Elastane.

Is this skirt suitable for all seasons?

While it can be styled year-round, its brushed finish and typical styling suggestions (thick tights, boots) make it particularly well-suited for autumn and winter wear.

How do I care for this skirt?

It is machine washable. We recommend washing it on a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Air dry flat or hang dry, and iron on a low setting if necessary.

What kind of fit does it have?

It features a regular fit and is designed to be true to size, with an elasticated waist for added comfort.

What is the length of the skirt?

The skirt has an approximate length of 115cm, offering a longer, elegant silhouette.

Are the pockets functional?

No, the skirt features contrasting mock pockets with faux leather trims, which are decorative design elements rather than functional pockets.

Troubleshooting

Skirt feels too loose or too tight around the waist.

The skirt is designed to be true to size with an elasticated waist. If it feels significantly off, double-check your measurements against standard UK sizing for a size 16. Consider if layering might be affecting the fit.

Fabric appears creased or wrinkled after washing.

After machine washing, gently reshape the skirt and hang it to dry, or lay it flat. Iron on a low setting if needed, ideally inside out to protect the brushed finish.

Faux leather trim seems to be losing its appearance.

Always follow the machine washable instructions. To be extra cautious, you can turn the skirt inside out before washing. Avoid harsh detergents or scrubbing the faux leather areas directly.

Skirt length is unexpected (too long for preference).

The skirt has an approximate length of 115cm, which is a longer style. If this length is not desired, professional alteration can be considered, but be aware of how this might affect the overall silhouette.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Comfortable All-Day Wear: Thanks to stretch jersey fabric and elasticated waist.
  • Timeless & Versatile Style: Houndstooth print is a classic, suitable for various occasions.
  • Easy Dressing: Pull-on design with an elasticated waist simplifies getting ready.
  • Low Maintenance: Machine washable for convenient care.
  • Ideal for Colder Seasons: Brushed finish and thicker fabric suitable for autumn/winter.

Cons

  • Season-Specific: Primarily designed for autumn and winter, less suitable for warm weather.
  • Faux Leather Trims: May require gentle handling despite being machine washable to maintain appearance.
  • Significant Length: At approximately 115cm, it's a very long skirt which might not suit all preferences or heights.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

First-Time Use & Setup

This skirt is a 'pull-on' design, meaning no complex closures or fastenings are involved. Simply pull it on and adjust the elasticated waist for comfort.

Compatibility

  • Tops: Compatible with a wide range of tops, including blouses, sweaters, turtlenecks, and cardigans.
  • Outerwear: Pairs well with tailored blazers, longline coats, and knit cardigans.
  • Footwear: Best complemented by boots (ankle, knee-high, or chunky styles) and closed-toe heels.
  • Accessories: Can be accessorized with belts (if desired over the elasticated waist), scarves, and statement jewelry to match your personal style.

Care Instructions

To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Houndstooth Stretch Pencil Skirt, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Machine Wash: Wash the skirt in a machine on a gentle cycle.
  2. Water Temperature: Use cold or lukewarm water to prevent shrinking or damage to the fabric.
  3. Detergent: Use a mild detergent.
  4. Drying: It is recommended to air dry flat or hang dry to maintain the skirt's shape and prevent creasing. Avoid tumble drying on high heat.
  5. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting, preferably inside out, to protect the brushed finish and faux leather trims. Use a pressing cloth if unsure.
  6. Avoid Bleach: Do not use bleach, as it can damage the fabric and fade the print.
