FAQs

What does 'Petite' mean in relation to this skirt?

The 'Petite' collection is designed with shorter proportions in mind. This means the length of the skirt, the rise of the waist, and the placement of design details are adjusted for individuals who are typically shorter in height.

How should I best style this skirt for a formal event?

For a formal event, pair the skirt with an elegant silk blouse, heeled mules or sandals, and statement jewelry. Ensure the top is tucked in to highlight the structured waistband.

Can this skirt be machine washed?

No, this skirt is recommended for dry clean only to preserve the fabric quality and the detailing of the buttons.

What is the length of the skirt?

The midi-length skirt falls approximately 75cm from the waist.

What material is the skirt made from?

The skirt is made from a cotton-rich fabrication with a touch of elastane for added comfort and ease of movement.

Are the buttons functional?

The description indicates double-column gold-tone button detail at the front waist, suggesting they are decorative elements rather than functional fastenings.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears creased after storage.

Hang the skirt in a steamy bathroom for a short period, or use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. Avoid direct heat on the buttons.

Buttons lose their shine.

Gently polish the gold-tone buttons with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaning agents directly on the buttons.

Fabric feels stiff.

Ensure the skirt has been properly dry cleaned. Sometimes, stiffness can occur if the garment is not cleaned professionally. The fabric will soften with appropriate care.
