Description

A traditional micro-check in forest green and ivory, woven rather than printed, so the pattern has depth to it when you are standing close.

The cut sits high on the natural waist, skims the hip, then opens into an A-line. The hem is where it stops being an office skirt: a flounce around the bottom adds a tier of volume that breaks up the check.

The fabric

A substantial tweed-weight cloth that holds its shape all day. Fully lined, with a hidden zip at the back, so the waist stays smooth under a tucked-in top and there is nothing to cling to tights.

How it fits

Length 26 inches, cut to a 25–26 inch waist. No stretch in the waistband, so size up if you are between. On a shorter frame the hem sits just below the knee rather than on it.

Looking after it

Dry clean. Tweed holds its shape because of how it is woven and a machine wash takes that out of it permanently. Brush it down after wearing and air it rather than washing it at every outing.

For anyone shopping petite clothes for work and tired of the same three greys, this is a korean fashion skirt that reads serious from the waist up and has an opinion at the hem — the best cute fall fashion buy on the rail.

Why we took this one

The check is woven rather than printed, so it has depth to it close up. The flounce at the hem is what stops it reading as a uniform skirt.

From a metre away, depth in the cloth is the whole difference between looking expensive and looking like a costume, and it is the first thing a printed version loses. The hem is the second reason it is here, and the part that keeps a heavy check from looking institutional.

Three ways to wear it

  • Office — a black polo neck tucked in with flat loafers.
  • Weekend — a cream knit and tall boots.
  • Evening — a fine black top and a heel, letting the flounce do the work.

Before you order

Length 26 inches, cut to a 25–26 inch waist, with no stretch in the waistband — size up if you are between. Fully lined with a hidden back zip, so nothing clings to tights. On a shorter frame the hem sits just below the knee rather than mid-calf, which is the better length for this shape. For petite clothes for work it is a korean fashion skirt that reads serious from the waist up and has an opinion at the hem.
