FAQs

Is this fleece suitable for women over 5'3"?

This garment is specifically cut for petite proportions. If you are taller than 5'3", the sleeve length and bodice length may feel too short for your frame.

Does the fleece shrink in the wash?

As with most synthetic fleece materials, there is a risk of shrinkage if exposed to high heat. Always wash in cool water and air dry.

Can I wear this under a winter coat?

Yes, because the fleece is relatively lightweight and designed with a half-zip, it serves as an excellent mid-layer beneath a heavier winter jacket.

How do I determine if size 16 is right for me?

PixieGirl sizing is standard UK sizing but adjusted for petite heights. Refer to our general size guide or compare measurements with a garment that currently fits you well.

Is the material breathable?

Fleece provides excellent warmth but is generally designed to trap heat. It is breathable enough for casual activities but may be too warm for high-intensity exercise.

Troubleshooting

The zip sticks or does not slide smoothly

Ensure no fabric threads are caught in the teeth. If it remains stiff, rub a small amount of graphite from a pencil along the zip teeth to act as a lubricant.

Fleece material feels static or clings

Lightly mist the garment with water or use an anti-static spray. Avoid overheating during the drying process.

The toggle hem doesn't stay tight

Check the toggle mechanism for debris. If it continues to slip, ensure the cord is fully pulled through the locking mechanism until it clicks into place.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Expertly proportioned for petite frames
  • Versatile zip-up style for easy layering
  • Warm and soft fleece material for cold weather
  • Functional toggle hem for a customizable fit

Cons

  • Not suitable for individuals taller than 5'3"
  • Material requires careful washing to prevent pilling
  • Limited to casual wear applications

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your PixieGirl fleece remains in top condition, follow these care guidelines:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool setting to maintain the integrity of the fleece fibers. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners which can coat the fibers and reduce their moisture-wicking efficiency.
  • Drying: Air drying is recommended to prevent the fleece from shrinking or developing static. If you must use a dryer, select the lowest heat setting.
  • Storage: Store by hanging on a coat hanger to maintain the shape, particularly to keep the shoulders from stretching out over time.
  • Compatibility: This garment pairs well with slim-fit jeans or high-waisted leggings, as the toggle hem can be cinched to complement the fitted waistlines of these bottoms.
