Description
A Study in Sophisticated Length
The midi pencil skirt is a masterclass in elegance—when the length is perfect. It’s a silhouette that can instantly elevate an entire wardrobe, but one that is notoriously difficult to get right. We’ve engineered the definitive version, combining a legendary Italian fabric with a bespoke process that guarantees a flawless, incredibly flattering fit.
An Impeccable Foundation: VBC Wool
A skirt this elegant demands an exceptional fabric. We use a world-class wool that outperforms and outlasts standard textiles.
- From the Legendary Vitale Barberis Canonico Mill: We use a Super 160s’ worsted wool from VBC, one of the oldest and most respected mills in Italy (est. 1663). This fabric is renowned for its incredibly smooth finish, beautiful drape, and four-season comfort.
- A Palette of 7 Essential Colors: Choose from a curated range of 7 sophisticated, versatile shades, including classic black, steel grey, and midnight blue.
Proportions of Power
This skirt is architected, not just sewn. Every detail serves to enhance its unique blend of modern style and timeless grace.
- The Tall Waistband: A clean, 2-inch tall waistband creates a strong, defined waist and provides a beautiful, elongating effect.
- The Grip-Enforced Interior: A high-end detail you’ll appreciate all day—the inside of the waistband is enforced with a grip to keep your blouses and shirts neatly tucked and perfectly in place.
- Designed for Confident Movement: A deep center-back vent ensures you can walk, sit, and move with graceful ease, defeating the restrictive nature of a typical pencil skirt.
Our Guarantee: The Perfect Midi, Every Time
The success of a midi skirt lies entirely in its length relative to your proportions. We eliminate the risk of a “frumpy” or awkward fit by sending you a free test skirt made to your initial measurements before we craft your final garment. This personal fitting allows you to perfect the length, ensuring it hits the most flattering point on your leg. It’s our commitment to a sophisticated result, guaranteed.
Caring For Your Skirt
To preserve the beauty and structure of your VBC wool, we recommend professional dry-cleaning only.
