Product Insights
The Elastic Waist Polka-Dotted Satin Skirt by Contemporaine offers a versatile A-line silhouette with a full elastic waistband that adapts to pear, hourglass, and rectangle figures. Its 33-inch length serves as a midi for average heights, while the unlined satin—glossy on one side and matte on the other—provides a soft sheen and liquid drape suitable for evening wear, with improved breathability in warm weather. The 98% polyester, 2% spandex blend adds slight stretch for comfort, but the unlined fabric is prone to static cling (mitigated by a low-friction underslip) and requires dry cleaning to preserve its luster. As a Simons house brand with 180 years of history, Contemporaine delivers a polished, adaptable garment with the main tradeoff being the need for a slip and professional care.
Verified claims
- Waistband
- Elastic waistband adjusts per size, not one-size-fits-all.
- Length
- 33-inch length doubles as a midi for 5'4–5'6 heights.
- Static cling
- Unlined satin fabric is prone to static cling; a slip prevents it.
- Satin hand
- Glossy face and matte reverse give the satin a soft sheen and liquid drape that lifts it to evening wear.
- Stretch
- The 98% polyester, 2% spandex blend provides slight stretch so the elastic waist moves without distorting the A-line.
- Breathability
- Unlined satin is lighter and more breathable than lined satin, comfortable in warm weather.
- Body type flattery
- Elastic-waist fit-and-flare skirt adapts to pear, hourglass, and rectangle figures.
- Brand confidence
- Contemporaine is a Simons house brand with 180 years of retail history.
- Fit
- A-line silhouette, elastic waist, 33-inch length: versatile for multiple body types.
- Unlined Benefits
- Unlined satin construction boosts breathability, provides a soft matte interior, and allows fluid movement.
- Static and Slip
- Unlined satin can cause static cling with tights; a lightweight half-slip prevents it.
- Care
- Dry cleaning is recommended to preserve the satin's fabric and shape.
- Comfort
- Full elastic waistband adds give for comfort, compensating for satin's lack of stretch.
- Cleaning
- Dry cleaning preserves the satin's luster and prevents snagging.
- Storage
- Store skirt folded in cool, dry place out of direct sunlight.
- Static prevention
- Wear a low-friction underslip to reduce static cling on unlined satin.
