FAQs

How should I store this skirt?

Always hang the skirt vertically using clips on the waistband to keep the pleats aligned and prevent unnecessary folding.

Can I machine wash this garment?

Due to the silk-based material and structured pleating, machine washing is not recommended. Professional dry cleaning is the safest method.

Is the skirt suitable for petite or tall frames?

At 83cm, it is designed as a midi skirt. On shorter frames, it may sit closer to the ankle, while on taller frames, it will hit mid-calf.

What kind of top works best with this skirt?

Fitted tops or blouses that can be tucked into the waistband work best to highlight the structure of the pleated design.

Does the waistband have any stretch?

The skirt is designed as a tailored piece; therefore, it offers little to no stretch. Ensure you check your measurements against the size guide before purchasing.

Troubleshooting

Pleats losing their crispness

Take the garment to a professional dry cleaner to have the pleats professionally re-pressed.

Minor wrinkling after travel

Hang the garment in a steamy bathroom for a short period or use a professional steamer from a distance, taking care not to crush the pleat lines.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Sophisticated, timeless design suitable for multiple occasions
  • Flattering midi length with an elongating effect
  • High-quality construction with full lining for added comfort
  • Unique contemporary touches like the asymmetric hem and studded detail

Cons

  • Requires dry cleaning or specialist care due to silk content
  • Pleated design necessitates careful storage to maintain structure
  • Limited stretch compared to casual skirt materials

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the longevity of your Karen Millen skirt, proper care is essential. Always hang the skirt on a skirt-specific hanger that clips the waistband to allow the pleats to hang vertically; avoid folding the garment to prevent permanent creases in the crepe. Given the material composition, this item should be professionally dry cleaned to protect the structure of the pleats and the integrity of the silk blend. Before wearing, ensure you check the hemline against your height to determine if custom tailoring is required for your specific fit preference.
