FAQs

Does the skirt come with pockets?

No, the Helia Mini Skirt features a minimalist, streamlined silhouette without pockets.

Is the fabric thick enough for colder weather?

The jersey is soft and comfortable, but it is not a heavy-weight fabric; it is best paired with tights or leggings for colder climates.

How does the size 18 fit?

The skirt is designed to fit a standard UK 18, with the elasticated waistband providing extra flexibility in the hip and waist area.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is recommended to avoid high heat. If you must use a tumble dryer, choose the lowest heat setting to prevent damage to the elastic waistband.

Is this suitable for formal events?

The Helia is primarily designed for casual and smart-casual styling. With the right accessories, it can be dressed up, but it is not intended as formal evening wear.

Troubleshooting

Waistband feels too loose after multiple wears

Wash the garment in cold water and air dry; the jersey and elastic often recover their shape with proper cleaning cycles.

Visible fabric wrinkling

Use a handheld fabric steamer to gently release wrinkles without applying direct heat to the material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High level of comfort due to soft jersey construction
  • Elasticated waist allows for a flexible, forgiving fit
  • Extremely versatile for various styling combinations
  • Easy to maintain and pull on quickly
  • Minimalist aesthetic suits both professional and casual environments

Cons

  • Unlined fabric may show texture or lines if worn with tight clothing
  • Length may be shorter than expected for taller individuals
  • Jersey fabric can be prone to snagging if not handled with care
  • Limited structural support compared to woven skirts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because the Helia skirt uses a pull-on design, there is no assembly or complex fitting required beyond ensuring the waistband sits at your preferred rise. To maintain the integrity of the jersey fabric:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a delicate cycle using cold water to prevent shrinking.
  2. Drying: Air dry or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting to maintain the elasticity of the waistband.
  3. Ironing: Use a low-heat setting or a steamer to remove wrinkles, as high direct heat can damage the jersey fibers.
  4. Storage: Fold the skirt rather than hanging it to prevent the fabric from stretching out at the waist or becoming distorted.
