Flowing Draped Crepe Skirt

Edito par Simons

simons.ca

Centre-Slit Pencil Skirt: Choose this if you want a long, fitted pencil skirt with a high waist and a centre front slit that begins below mid-length, in a slightly stretchy medium-weight fabric (68% polyester, 29% LENZING™ ECOVERO™ viscose, 3% elastane) with a hidden side zip and decorative side buttons. The dark charcoal, column-style design is intended for year-round wear and is an exclusive Édito by Simons design made in Portugal, available in sizes 4 to 12. Note that the slit is a modest one starting well below mid-thigh, so this suits shoppers after coverage with just a hint of leg rather than a high slit.[1,2,3,4]Flowing Draped Crepe Skirt: Choose this if you want a black maxi skirt with a draped, sarong-style design — per the retailer, a minimalist Edito par Simons piece evoking seaside living — in soft, satiny stretch crepe made of 97% responsibly sourced viscose and 3% elastane with an elastic waist and a 32.5 inch (82.5 cm) length. It suits shoppers who like fluid drape, an asymmetric folded detail at the right hip, and a slightly A-line silhouette that reaches the ankles or floor. Note it is only offered in Black and in X-Small, Small, and Medium sizes, so it works only if those fit your needs.[5,6,7]
