FAQs
What does 'Petite' mean in the sizing?
'Petite' sizing refers to clothing specifically proportioned for women under 5'4" (163 cm) tall. This means the jacket will have shorter sleeve lengths, a shorter torso length, and adjusted shoulder and waist placements for a more flattering and comfortable fit on smaller frames.
Is this jacket suitable for cold weather?
The Wallis Petite Black Faux Leather Seam Detail Jacket is primarily designed as a stylish layering piece rather than heavy insulation. It offers some protection from light chill but may not be sufficient for very cold temperatures. For colder weather, it's best to layer it over warmer garments.
How do I clean this faux leather jacket?
It is recommended to spot clean minor marks with a damp cloth and mild soap. For more extensive cleaning, hand wash in cold water with a gentle detergent or use a specialized faux leather cleaner. Always air dry away from direct heat and sunlight. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
Can I iron this jacket?
Yes, if necessary, you can iron the jacket on the lowest heat setting. Always place a pressing cloth between the iron and the faux leather surface to prevent damage. Alternatively, a garment steamer used from a distance can help remove wrinkles.
Does the faux leather look authentic?
The Wallis Petite Black Faux Leather Seam Detail Jacket is designed to offer a modern and sleek faux leather appearance. While it is not genuine leather, it aims to provide a stylish alternative with a smooth finish and tailored look, enhanced by its seam details.
What is the material composition?
The jacket is made from Faux Leather, providing a durable and stylish synthetic alternative to genuine leather.
Is this jacket suitable for all seasons?
This jacket is most suitable for transitional seasons like spring and autumn, or for cooler summer evenings and mild winter days when layered. Its lightweight nature makes it versatile for indoor and outdoor wear in moderate temperatures.
Troubleshooting
Faux leather appears dull or has minor scuffs
Gently wipe the affected area with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For scuffs, a small amount of specialized faux leather conditioner or a tiny dab of petroleum jelly (applied sparingly and buffed off) can sometimes help restore shine. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
Jacket feels stiff or creases easily
Faux leather can sometimes develop creases if folded. Hang the jacket on a padded hanger to allow gravity to smooth it out. For stubborn creases, use a garment steamer from a distance or iron on the lowest heat setting with a pressing cloth.
Unpleasant odor from the jacket
This can sometimes happen with new faux leather items. Hang the jacket in a well-ventilated area for a few days to air it out. You can also try lightly spritzing it with a fabric freshener, ensuring it's safe for faux leather, or placing it in a garment bag with odor absorbers (like baking soda in a sachet).
Zipper or fastenings get stuck
For a stiff zipper, gently rub a graphite pencil lead or a dry soap bar along the teeth to lubricate it. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper mechanism.

Spot Cleaning: For small spills or marks, gently wipe with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not rub vigorously.
General Cleaning: For a more thorough clean, always check the garment's specific care label for detailed instructions. Generally, faux leather can be hand-washed in cold water with a gentle detergent or wiped down with specialized faux leather cleaner.
Drying: Hang to air dry away from direct sunlight or heat. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the material.
Storage: Store on a padded hanger to maintain its shape. Avoid folding for long periods to prevent creasing.
Ironing: If necessary, iron on the lowest heat setting with a pressing cloth between the iron and the jacket's surface, or use a steamer from a distance. Avoid direct heat.
