FAQs
What material is the suit made from?
The main fabric is a stretch suiting blend of 75% Polyester, 20% Viscose, and 5% Spandex. The lining is 100% Polyester.
Can I machine wash this suit?
Yes, the suit is fully machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and wash with similar colors. Avoid bleach.
How should I dry the suit?
It is best to either tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang the suit to dry. Avoid high heat drying.
What is the fit of the skirt?
The skirt is designed to sit just below the knee and features an elasticated side waistband for an easier and more comfortable fit. It also has a back vent for ease of movement.
Are the jacket pockets functional?
Yes, the jacket has flapped slit pockets that are functional. They are initially secured with tacking stitches, which need to be carefully removed before use.
What occasions is this suit suitable for?

How can I ensure I order the correct size?
Refer to the size guide and consider the model's height (5'7" / 170cm) and the UK size they are wearing (UK size 12) for comparison. The elasticated waistband on the skirt offers some flexibility.
Troubleshooting
Jacket pockets are sewn shut.
The flapped slit pockets on the jacket are secured with tacking stitches for presentation. Carefully cut these stitches with a seam ripper or small scissors to open the pockets for use.
Suit appears creased after arrival or washing.
Iron the suit on a cool to medium heat setting. Use a pressing cloth between the iron and the fabric to prevent damage. Hang the suit after ironing to help maintain its shape.
Skirt waistband feels tight.
The skirt features an elasticated side waistband designed to offer some flexibility. Ensure the skirt is positioned correctly. If significant tightness persists, consider if a different size might be more suitable, referencing the size guide.
Color appears different than expected.
Monitor colors can vary slightly. Ensure you are viewing the product in adequate lighting. Check the product description for the most accurate color representation. Differences in screen calibration can affect perceived color.
