Product Information

Full details

This tailored midi skirt is designed for adult females seeking a sophisticated and versatile addition to their wardrobe. Its key benefit is the elegant flared silhouette created by godet inserts, combined with a classic check pattern and decorative gold-tone buttons for a refined, military-inspired look. A potential caveat is that the structured waistband might require careful consideration for fit, depending on personal preference.

FAQs

What occasions is this skirt suitable for?

This skirt is highly versatile and suitable for formal occasions like weddings, business meetings, and graduation ceremonies, as well as more contemporary styling with knitwear for smart-casual events.

How should I determine my size?

Refer to the size guide provided by Karen Millen for accurate measurements. The skirt features a structured waistband, so ensure you measure your natural waist.

Can I machine wash this skirt?

It is recommended to dry clean this skirt only. Machine washing may damage the fabric, structure, and decorative elements.

What is the length of the midi skirt?

The midi length falls approximately 90cm. Specific measurements can vary slightly by size.

What kind of tops pair well with this skirt?

Crisp blouses, fine knit jumpers, silk camisoles, or tailored shirts all complement the skirt's sophisticated design.

What shoes are recommended?

Pointed court shoes, elegant heels, or ankle boots work well for formal or smart-casual styling. For a more casual look, consider loafers or elegant flats.

What is the material of the skirt?

The skirt is made from 100% polyester.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears creased after storage.

Gently steam the skirt on a low heat setting or consult a professional dry cleaner for pressing.

Decorative buttons feel loose.

Carefully reinforce the buttons by hand-stitching them more securely. Avoid machine sewing, which may damage the button or fabric.

Fabric feels stiff.

This is characteristic of the polyester material, intended to provide structure. Gentle steaming can soften the fabric slightly. Ensure proper dry cleaning for maintenance.

Godet inserts do not lay flat.

Ensure the skirt is properly hung. If persistent, a professional tailor may be able to adjust the interfacing or seams.
