Gala Skirt - Bone – L'IDÉE

Size Guide

Our silhouettes are composed of either tight micro pleats or a relaxed pleat combination, as a result the fit of the silhouettes tend to be flexible.

Due to the pleating technique some of our silhouettes are size fluid, meaning they have a flexible fit across the chest, waist and hips. These styles do not have specific measurements and so we recommend that you choose your size based on our below guide whilst taking into account your usual size.

Form fitting shapes that feature a rear zip closure have bust and waist measurements that can be provided upon request.

Relaxed silhouettes that feature a rear zip closure have waist measurements that can be provided upon request.

All products are displayed in AU sizing on the website.

Care Instructions

WASHING INSTRUCTIONS.

Our garments should only be washed at a temperature below 30 degrees Celsius. They can be washed in either a delicates laundry bag & machine-washed on a gentle short cycle or hand washed gently. To dry, the garments should be laid flat to dry and away from direct sunlight in a well ventilated area.

PRECAUTIONS.

The finish of the fabric is not designed to withstand heat and so it should be avoided at all costs. Please note that reprocessing pleats after they have relaxed due to being exposed to heat is not possible so they must be handled with utmost care.

Do not dry clean
Do not tumble dry
Do not iron or steam press
Do not wash on a warm cycle or in hot water
Do not use detergents that contain bleach
Avoid wearing garment when wet as it will stretch the pleats

STORING YOUR PLEATS.

To store your garment we recommend rolling up the garments along the lines of the pleats and then placing in the garment bag received with your order.

We suggest not leaving it hanging for a prolonged period of time as this could affect the way the pleating falls in the long term. Please try to store your garment somewhere without moisture or humidity and avoid stretching the garment as the pleating is delicate.

The beauty of our product is it does not require ironing or steaming, pop it in your suitcase or weekend bag for your destination event, pull it out and it’s ready to wear! What a dream.
