FAQs
What is the material composition of the Izabel London Midi Skirt?
The skirt is made from 55% Polyester and 45% Polyurethane (PU), giving it its distinctive faux leather appearance.
Can I machine wash this skirt?
Yes, it is suitable for a cold gentle machine wash. It is important to wash it separately to protect the fabric and prevent damage.
What is the approximate length of the skirt?
The skirt has a midi length, approximately 89 cm.
Is this skirt suitable for professional office wear?
Yes, its sleek design, high waist, and midi length make it an excellent choice for a chic and professional office look, especially when paired with a tucked-in blouse.
How should I dry the skirt?
It is best to hang the skirt to air dry. Avoid using a tumble dryer, as high heat can damage the material and cause wrinkles.
Does this skirt have pockets?
Info needed: The product description does not specify whether the skirt includes pockets.
How can I prevent creases in the faux leather material?
Store the skirt on a padded hanger and avoid folding it tightly. If creases occur, gentle steaming or ironing on a low setting from the inside out with a pressing cloth can help.
Troubleshooting
Skirt appears creased or wrinkled.
Hang the skirt on a padded hanger immediately after washing. If creases persist, gently steam the skirt from the inside or use an iron on the lowest setting with a pressing cloth, always ironing from the inside out.
Faux leather look seems dull or less vibrant.
Ensure you are following the cold gentle machine wash instructions. Avoid harsh detergents or rubbing that could affect the finish. A very light wipe with a damp cloth (water only) can sometimes restore a subtle sheen.
Skirt feels stiff after washing.
The polyester/PU blend can sometimes feel a little stiff when new or after washing. Allow it to air dry completely and wear it a few times; it should soften slightly with body movement.
Discoloration or fading observed.
Ensure you are washing separately to prevent color transfer from other garments. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight during storage, as UV rays can contribute to fading over time.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup
Your Izabel London Midi Skirt is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. No complex setup is required. Simply wear it with your chosen top and accessories.
Compatibility
This skirt's classic black color and sleek design make it highly compatible with a wide range of wardrobe items:
- Tops: Pair with tucked-in blouses, fitted knit tops, sweaters, or even graphic tees for a more edgy look.
- Footwear: Works well with heels, ankle boots, knee-high boots, or even stylish flats depending on the occasion.
- Outerwear: Complement with blazers, trench coats, or tailored jackets for added sophistication.
- Accessories: Minimalist jewelry or a statement belt can further enhance your outfit.
Care
Proper care will ensure your skirt maintains its 'faux leather look' and longevity:
- Washing: Always perform a cold gentle machine wash separately. Avoid washing with items that have zippers or embellishments that could snag the fabric.
- Drying: Hang to dry naturally. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can damage the polyurethane coating and cause creasing.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a very low heat setting, *inside out*, and ideally with a pressing cloth to protect the faux leather finish. Avoid direct high heat.
- Storage: Store on a padded hanger to prevent creasing and maintain its shape. Keep away from direct sunlight to avoid material degradation.
