FAQs

What is the material of the skirt?

The skirt is crafted from 100% cotton, providing a crisp and structured drape.

How long is the skirt?

The midi length falls approximately 85cm from the waist.

Can I machine wash the skirt?

It is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. However, hand washing or professional dry cleaning is often preferred for structured garments to maintain their shape.

Does the skirt have pockets?

Yes, the skirt features practical patch pockets at the hip, inspired by classic outerwear detailing.

How should I style this skirt for work?

For work, pair it with a silk blouse and block-heeled mules, or a fine-knit roll-neck tucked in for a polished office look.

What is the fit like?

The skirt features a structured A-line silhouette created by pleats and a defined waist with a belt. It is designed for a tailored fit.

Is the belt removable?

The belt is designed to be structured and integral to the silhouette, typically intended to be worn with the skirt.

Troubleshooting

Skirt loses its shape after washing

Ensure the skirt is dried flat or hung correctly. Ironing on a medium heat setting, especially on the reverse side, can help restore its structure. Consider professional dry cleaning for best results with structured cotton.

Wrinkles are difficult to remove

Use a medium-heat iron on the reverse side of the fabric. For stubborn wrinkles, a garment steamer can be effective. Ensure the fabric is slightly damp before ironing for better wrinkle removal.

Belt buckle feels stiff

The square buckle is designed for a secure fit. Gently work the belt through the buckle to loosen it initially. Avoid forcing it. If the stiffness persists, check for any minor obstructions.

White fabric shows stains easily

Address stains immediately with a gentle stain remover suitable for cotton. For general upkeep, follow the recommended washing instructions carefully. Consider professional cleaning for tough stains.

Cons

  • Midi length may not be suitable for all personal style preferences or heights.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care Instructions:

  • Due to the 100% cotton fabric and structured design, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle or hand wash with cold water.
  • Avoid using bleach.
  • For best results, lay flat to dry or hang to prevent stretching.
  • Iron on a medium heat setting, preferably on the reverse side, to maintain the crispness of the fabric and pleats. Steaming can also be effective for removing wrinkles.
