No zipper. No buttons. Just: \u003cstrong\u003eup, pull it over your hips and you're done.\u003c\/strong\u003e We love that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAnd the fit is truly great. The AVA falls beautifully smooth along the body without being so tight that you see every line. Boiled wool has a certain sturdiness, which is exactly why this skirt provides such a beautiful silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy is the MADNESS AVA such a lovely wool skirt?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause this is actually the winter version of that easy skirt you mindlessly pull out of your closet in the morning. Only this one is made of wonderful organic wool. The waist is comfortable and elastic, and because there is no zipper or other closure, you can just pull it on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eMade of organic boiled wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eGOTS-certified\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eSoft, warm, and sturdy quality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eComfortable waist without zippers or buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eBeautiful, feminine fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eAvailable in two colors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n  \u003cli\u003eA great staple for your autumn and winter wardrobe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does the wool skirt AVA by MADNESS fit?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe AVA has a \u003cstrong\u003ebeautifully fitted but not constricting cut\u003c\/strong\u003e. In the photos, I am wearing a size 42. On me, the skirt falls above the knee and fits nicely around the waist and hips.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause there is no zipper that needs to fit somewhere, the skirt also feels a lot easier to wear than many classic wool skirts. The waist is forgiving: just put it on and go.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat is boiled wool?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBoiled wool is made more compact through a special process. This creates that characteristic soft, slightly felted texture that you can see well in the detail photos. The fabric is denser and sturdier than a standard knit but retains the fine properties of wool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is exactly what you want from a skirt like the AVA: \u003cstrong\u003ewarm, soft, and shape-retaining\u003c\/strong\u003e, without creating a thick, bulky winter skirt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIn which colors is the MADNESS AVA available?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe have the AVA in \u003cstrong\u003etwo colors\u003c\/strong\u003e: a beautiful deep blue and a warm burgundy-like shade. Both are incredibly easy to combine, but with a totally different effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlue is, of course, a color that goes with almost everything. The burgundy color is a bit warmer and looks stunning with pink, red, rust, cream, and all kinds of autumn tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you style this wool skirt?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou can really go in any direction here. In the photos, I am wearing the AVA neatly with a colorful blouse and heels, but please don't just label it as a 'dressy skirt'.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe think it is just as lovely with a \u003cstrong\u003enice wool sweater, tights, and a pair of sturdy boots\u003c\/strong\u003e. Or with a turtleneck, cardigan, blouse, or wool long-sleeve. This allows you to wear the same skirt to work, to dinner, and just on a regular weekday.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eIs a boiled wool skirt warm?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYes! And that is exactly why we love wool skirts so much in the autumn and winter. Wool is naturally temperature-regulating, and the compact structure of boiled wool provides plenty of warmth without needing an incredibly thick layer of fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a good pair of wool tights underneath, you have a wonderful winter combination.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you wash the MADNESS AVA wool skirt?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe great thing about wool is that you don't have to wash it after every wear. \u003cstrong\u003eAir drying is often enough.\u003c\/strong\u003e That is better for the wool, better for your clothes, and saves you a lot of laundry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDoes the AVA need to be washed? Always follow the care label and use a suitable wool detergent, such as \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/lanalicious-wasmiddel\"\u003eLanalicious wool detergent\u003c\/a\u003e. Avoid large temperature differences, rubbing, and wringing, and let the skirt dry flat in shape after washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCan boiled wool pill?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith natural wool fibers, some pilling can occur over time due to friction, for example in places where a bag or coat rubs against the fabric. That is normal and says nothing about the quality of the wool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou can gently remove any lint with our \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/gleener-pluizenkam-voor-het-ontpillen-van-wollen-k\"\u003eGleener fabric shaver\u003c\/a\u003e. This will keep the wool looking beautiful for years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy do we think the AVA is such a good basic skirt?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBecause there is really nothing complicated about it. And that is exactly what makes it so good. \u003cstrong\u003eBeautiful wool, great fit, nice and warm, and no hassle with zippers.\u003c\/strong\u003e You pull it on, throw a sweater or blouse over it, and your outfit is ready.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt is the kind of skirt you think you're buying 'to look nice' and then end up pulling out of your closet every week.
