Product Information

Full details

Designed for the modern professional, this Karen Millen midi skirt is perfect for those seeking a sharp, architectural silhouette for formal occasions like office events, weddings, or ceremonies. Its primary benefit is the combination of a figure-flattering compact stretch fabric and a bold, geometric colour-block design that offers a high-end, structured aesthetic. While the pencil cut provides a sophisticated, body-skimming look, users should be aware that the tailored fit may feel restrictive compared to looser skirts, though the included rear vent is specifically designed to assist with ease of movement.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the total length of the skirt?

The skirt falls to a sophisticated midi length of approximately 83cm.

Is the fabric machine washable?

While the fabric is durable, we recommend professional dry cleaning or a cold, delicate hand-wash to preserve the structure and colour contrast.

Does the skirt offer any stretch?

Yes, it is made with a compact stretch fabric designed to move with your body while maintaining a sharp, structured silhouette.

What kind of top works best with this skirt?

A tucked-in roll-neck, silk blouse, or a slim-fit tailored blazer are ideal choices to complement the skirt's geometric lines.

Is the skirt fully lined?

Yes, the garment is fully lined to provide a smooth finish and added durability.

What is the purpose of the rear vent?

The rear vent is included to provide extra room for your stride, allowing you to walk and move comfortably despite the slim, body-skimming pencil cut.

Troubleshooting

Fabric appears wrinkled after storage

Use a garment steamer on a low setting; avoid direct contact with a hot iron which may damage the stretch fibres.

Skirt feels too tight at the hips

Ensure the skirt is positioned correctly at the natural waist; if the issue persists, consider professional tailoring to let out the side seams.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your skirt, follow these guidelines:

  1. Care: Due to the tailored nature of the garment, professional dry cleaning is recommended to maintain the structure and the integrity of the fabric blend. If machine washing is necessary, use a cold, delicate cycle in a garment bag and hang to dry.
  2. Storage: Store the skirt on a skirt hanger with clips to prevent creases, rather than folding it in a drawer.
  3. Styling Compatibility: The high-waisted aesthetic of this midi skirt works best with tucked-in tops or bodysuits, which maintain the clean lines of the waist and hip area.
  4. Footwear: This midi length works exceptionally well with pointed-toe pumps or block heels, which help elongate the leg against the sharp horizontal lines of the colour block pattern.
