FAQs

What occasions is this skirt best suited for?

This skirt is ideal for a range of occasions, including business meetings, formal events like weddings and race days, and sophisticated evening gatherings.

What kind of top should I wear with this skirt?

It pairs well with fitted scoop-neck tops, crisp white shirts, tailored blouses, and silk camisoles. Tuck in your top to highlight the high-waisted fit.

How should I clean the skirt?

Due to the silk material, it is recommended to dry clean the skirt only. Avoid bleaching, tumble drying, or wringing.

What is the length of the skirt?

The skirt has a versatile length of 90cm, designed to sit elegantly at mid-calf.

Does the godet flare add a lot of volume?

The godet flare is designed to create graceful movement and a sophisticated silhouette, rather than adding excessive volume. It allows for fluid motion as you walk.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

No, machine washing is not recommended for this silk skirt. Professional dry cleaning is the advised method.

Troubleshooting

Creasing upon arrival or after wear.

Gently steam the skirt on a low setting or have it professionally dry-cleaned and pressed. Ensure proper storage to minimize creasing.

Buttons lose their shine.

Gently polish the gold-tone buttons with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners which can damage the finish.

Fabric appears dull after cleaning.

Ensure you are using a reputable dry cleaner experienced with silk. Direct steam ironing on the correct setting can help restore sheen.
