Product Information
Full details
The Joules Ada Pleated Mini Skirt is designed for adults seeking a blend of preppy heritage style and modern convenience for casual outings or evening social gatherings. Its key benefit lies in the leg-elongating mini cut and the structured, rhythmic pleats that add a touch of sophistication to any ensemble; however, potential buyers should note that the polyester material requires specific care instructions to maintain its shape and finish.

FAQs
Is the skirt true to size?
The skirt is designed to standard UK sizing for women. Refer to the size 14 specifications if you are generally a UK 14.
Can I put this in the dryer?
We recommend air drying to preserve the shape of the pleats and the longevity of the polyester fabric.
What kind of top works best with this skirt?
Tucked-in tees, lightweight blouses, or thin knit sweaters work best with the smooth waistband design.
Are the side pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
Yes, the side pockets are designed to hold standard-sized smartphones and small personal items securely.
Does the skirt stretch?
The polyester material offers a slight give, but it is primarily structured to maintain its pleated silhouette.
Troubleshooting
Pleats losing their crispness
Ensure the garment is hung vertically after washing; if necessary, steam the pleats gently using a garment steamer.
Waistband rolling or bunching
Verify the size is a proper fit; if it remains loose, try layering with a thinner fabric base to ensure a flat tuck-in.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the Joules Ada Pleated Mini Skirt retains its structure and rhythmic swing, follow these guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cold cycle to protect the polyester fibers and pleat integrity.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible by hanging the skirt by its waistband to prevent wrinkles. Avoid tumble drying on high heat as this may damage the pleats.
- Ironing: Use a cool iron if necessary, but keep it away from the direct pleat folds to maintain their sharp, structured appearance.
- Compatibility: This skirt pairs exceptionally well with fitted basics. Avoid overly chunky knitwear that might overwhelm the mini silhouette.
