What type of leather is this skirt made from?

The skirt is crafted from 100% genuine leather, chosen for its authentic texture and durability.

How should I determine my correct size?

Can this skirt be worn in different seasons?

Yes, the timeless design and durable leather make it suitable for year-round wear. Style it with lighter tops and sandals in warmer months, and with tights, boots, and knitwear in colder seasons.

Is the skirt suitable for formal occasions?

While versatile, its mini length and leather material lean towards smart-casual or cocktail attire. For very formal events, consider styling it with a sophisticated blouse and heels to elevate the look.

How do I care for the leather to ensure it lasts?

Professional leather cleaning is recommended. Regularly condition the leather with a suitable product and store it properly on a hanger away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Will the leather soften over time?

What is the return policy for this item?

Please refer to the retailer's specific return policy for details on returns and exchanges, as this can vary by seller.

Troubleshooting

Skirt appears stiff or creased after storage.

Gently flex the leather or hang it in a steamy bathroom (do not let it get wet) for a short period to relax the fibers. A light application of leather conditioner can also help.

Minor scuffs or scratches on the leather surface.

For light scuffs, try gently buffing with a soft, dry cloth. For deeper scratches, consult a professional leather repair specialist or use a leather repair balm designed for the specific color.

Discoloration from contact with other fabrics.

This can happen with new leather. Ensure the skirt is dry and consider using a leather protector spray. If significant color transfer occurs, professional cleaning may be required.
