FAQs

Is this skirt true to size?

Yes, it is designed with a standard adult fit; the elasticated waist provides some flexibility, but it is recommended to follow standard UK dress sizing.

Can I tumble dry this skirt?

No, it is highly recommended to air dry the skirt naturally to prevent heat damage to the silk fibers and to maintain the garment's shape.

What is the skirt length?

As a midi-skirt, it is designed to fall between the knee and the ankle, though the exact position depends on the wearer's height.

Does the white fabric appear transparent?

The skirt is fully lined with 100% polyester, which provides significant opacity and ensures that the white fabric is not see-through.

Should I iron this skirt?

If necessary, use a very low heat setting on the reverse side of the fabric, ideally with a pressing cloth between the iron and the silk.

Troubleshooting

Visible wrinkles upon removing from storage

Lightly steam the garment using a low-heat setting, keeping the steamer nozzle at least 6 inches away from the silk fabric.

Static cling caused by the polyester lining

Use a light anti-static spray on the inside lining, or lightly dampen your hands and smooth the lining to neutralize the charge.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, versatile aesthetic suitable for multiple occasions
  • Comfortable elasticated waist for all-day wear
  • Machine washable for easy care
  • Fully lined to ensure a smooth, opaque drape

Cons

  • Silk-satin fabric is prone to snagging on sharp objects
  • Requires careful storage to prevent deep creasing
  • Limited to one colorway

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment does not require any complex setup; simply step into the skirt and position the elasticated waist for a comfortable fit. To ensure the longevity of the silk-satin fabric, avoid wearing heavy jewelry or accessories that could catch on the delicate fibers. When washing, always use a delicate cycle at 30 degrees Celsius and preferably place the skirt inside a mesh laundry bag to protect the exterior finish. Avoid bleach and harsh detergents. Air dry the garment on a padded hanger away from direct sunlight to preserve the natural white color and fiber integrity.
