The Skirt Suit

A Custom Skirt Suit That Stays Put

The trouble with most skirt suits is not how they look standing still. It is the skirt creeping up as you walk, twisting at the waist and clinging to tights when you sit, because the skirt was cut for a size chart and left unlined.

This custom skirt suit is cut to your measurements in a Super 130s pinstripe wool: a three-button jacket with peak lapels and a fully lined pencil skirt with a back slit and a grip waistband, so it stays where you put it. You try a free cotton test suit at home before the wool is cut.

What Is a Skirt Suit

What Is a Skirt Suit?

A skirt suit is a women’s suit with a skirt instead of trousers: a jacket and a skirt cut from the same cloth and worn together. It is sometimes written as one word, skirtsuit, and in some countries called a two piece or a coat and skirt. What is a women’s suit with a skirt called in a tailor’s shop? Simply a skirt suit, or a jacket and skirt.

Suits with skirts go by many names: women’s suits with skirts, suit skirts for women, skirts suits, women’s 2 piece suits, or simply a women’s blazer and skirt. This tailored skirt suit pairs the blazer and suit skirt in one cloth, a women’s blazer skirt suit that can also be worn apart; worn alone, the tailored suit skirt goes with a sweater. Skirt suit designs for ladies differ mostly in the jacket and the skirt length.

With a pencil skirtThe classic: a straight, close skirt to the knee, as in the photos. Pencil skirt suits for women are the most formal; a black pencil skirt suit or a navy pencil skirt suit for a wedding both work.
With a long skirtA long pencil skirt suit to mid-calf, quieter and good for winter; long skirt suits for ladies, like a womens long skirt suit, need an accurate hip fit to hang straight.
With a short skirtA miniskirt suit is shorter and more of a fashion piece; any length can be entered on the measurement form.
Skirt or trousersThe same jacket can be made with trousers instead; ask in the comment box.
For eveningWith satin lapels the jacket becomes a skirt tuxedo, a women’s tuxedo skirt suit; write it in the comment box.

Free Test Suit

Fitted Before the Wool Is Cut

A pencil skirt shows body structure more honestly than any trouser. When the hip is smaller than the waist suggests, the skirt bunches below the seat; when the hip is fuller at the back with a flatter front, the skirt rides up behind and the side seams twist. On the jacket, the bust and the back decide whether three buttons close cleanly. These are the corrections we make most often on women’s suits, and the buttons are kept close enough that the front never gapes.

If the right correction would change the style, such as a dart through the stripes, we explain it, and you choose between the fit that follows your body exactly and the look in the photos exactly.

1
Choose the stripe and skirt length
Pick the stripe and lining in the selector, then your fit and measurements, with the skirt length you want: knee length as standard, or longer or shorter.
2
The cotton suit comes first
Jacket and skirt are cut in cotton to your measurements in 3 to 4 weeks and arrive 5 to 10 days after dispatch.
3
Walk, sit and climb stairs
A skirt shows its fit in movement: check that it stays level at the hem, that it does not ride up when you sit, and that the jacket buttons close over the bust without pulling.
4
The pinstripe is cut
Your corrections go into the pattern, the stripes are matched, and the suit takes 3 to 4 weeks; it arrives 5 to 10 days after it ships. Keep the cotton suit.

The Skirt

A Pencil Skirt That Stays Put

Back of a women's pinstripe skirt suit with a ventless jacket and a slit pencil skirt, back view

Fully linedThe lining lets the skirt slide over tights instead of clinging, and keeps the wool from creasing at the seat.
Grip waistbandA two inch waistband lined in cotton, with an inner grip that holds a tucked blouse in place.
Back slit and hidden zipA center back slit for walking and a hidden zip at the back.
No pocketsA smooth line over the hips, which is why tailored skirt suits for women usually skip them.

In our experience, cheap skirt suits fail first in the skirt: thin cloth bags at the seat, an unlined skirt rides up, and the jacket loses its shape. A canvas front and a lined, fitted skirt are what make this one last.

How to Wear It

Skirt Suits for Women, From the Office to a Wedding

WorkA professional skirt suit for work with a white shirt or a fine knit: the classic women’s skirt suit for meetings. Professional skirt suit styles for work differ mostly in the jacket length.
WeddingsWomens skirt suits for weddings in gray or navy with a silk blouse; formal skirt suits for weddings are a quieter choice than a dress for guests and mothers of the couple, and the most dressy skirt suits or formal skirt suits for ladies add a silk blouse and heels.
Special occasionsOne of the women’s skirt suits for special occasions, with heels and the jacket buttoned.
SeparatesThe jacket over a dress or trousers; the skirt with a sweater.

A modern skirt suit, like any modern women’s suit, is slimmer at the waist and shorter in the jacket than the boxy suits of the past, which is why a fitted skirt suit cut to your measurements looks modern without trying; in a bold stripe it becomes a power suit with a skirt. For a pinstripe pant suit, see our women’s pinstripe suit; for a dress instead of a skirt, our women’s suit dress.

Questions & Answers

Questions About the Women’s Skirt Suit

Q. What is a skirt suit, and what else is it called?
A. A skirt suit is a women’s suit made of a jacket and a skirt cut from the same cloth and worn together. It is also called a two-piece, a coat and skirt, or written as one word, skirtsuit. Cutting both pieces from one cloth matters: they match in color and texture on the day and age together over the years.
Q. Is a skirt suit appropriate for an interview or a conservative office?
A. Yes. A matching skirt suit is full business dress, as formal as a pant suit, and it is still the expected choice in some law, finance and government settings. For an interview, navy or charcoal pinstripe with a knee-length skirt and a plain blouse is the safe, confident choice.
Q. Can I wear a skirt suit to court?
A. Yes. A tailored skirt suit in a dark, muted color with the skirt at the knee is one of the standard choices. Keep the blouse plain and the jewelry quiet, so attention stays on what you say rather than what you wear.
Q. Can I wear a skirt suit to a wedding?
A. Yes, if it suits the dress code. For a daytime wedding, a gray or navy skirt suit with a silk blouse and heels looks polished and is a good alternative to a dress; for a formal evening, choose a longer skirt or satin lapels. Avoid white and ivory, which belong to the bride.
Q. How long should the skirt of a skirt suit be?
A. The classic length is at the knee or just below, which stays appropriate when you sit. Just above the knee looks more modern, and a midi length suits winter and formal events. You enter the length you want, and the test suit shows how it looks sitting and standing before the wool is cut.
Q. Will the pencil skirt ride up when I walk or sit?
A. Not when it fits. Tape and slips only treat the symptom; a pencil skirt rides up because it is too tight at the hip or seat, or sits below the natural waist. Ours is cut to your hip and seat, fully lined so it slides over tights, and has a grip waistband that keeps it at the waist.
Q. Are skirt suits still in style?
A. Yes. They have come back on the runways, and the modern version is slimmer at the waist with a shorter jacket than the boxy suits of the 1980s and 1990s. A skirt suit cut to your measurements looks current because the fit, not a trend detail, does the work.
Q. Which pinstripe should I choose?
A. Gray with a light stripe is the easiest to wear every day, charcoal is the most formal, navy is the classic for interviews and weddings, and black with a dotted orange stripe is the statement choice. Stripes are hard to judge on a screen, so our swatch service will send up to four samples; quote product number 2600010 and the stripes you want to compare.
Q. What is Super 130s wool, and is it good for a skirt suit?
A. Super 130s describes a fine worsted wool fiber. It is smooth and drapes well, yet firm enough to hold a pencil skirt and a structured jacket, and it resists creasing through a day of sitting. Finer numbers feel softer but wear faster, so 130s is a sensible balance for a suit you will wear often.
Q. Can I have a long or midi skirt?
A. Yes. Enter the length on the measurement form; a midi or long pencil skirt needs an accurate hip fit to hang straight and a slit long enough to walk in, both of which we check on the test suit.
Q. Can it be made as a tuxedo skirt suit?
A. Yes. Ask for satin lapels in the comment box of the measurement form, and the jacket becomes a skirt tuxedo for evening. It suits the black cloth most naturally.
Q. Can I have trousers instead of the skirt?
A. Yes. Write it in the comment box of the measurement form, or email us with your order number. Trousers, a longer or shorter skirt, or a different button count are all possible.
Q. Does the jacket have pockets?
A. Yes: single welt hip pockets and two interior pockets. The skirt has none, so it lies smooth over the hips.
Q. Can I order the jacket or the skirt alone?
A. Ask us through the Ask a question about this piece form below Add to Cart, or by email, and we will tell you what is possible for the cloth you want.
Q. How do I measure without a tailor?
A. With a helper if possible. Alone, measure your bust, natural waist and hips, then measure a jacket and skirt that fit you well; we can guide you by video call or WhatsApp.
Q. How long will my skirt suit take?
A. The cotton test suit takes 3 to 4 weeks to make and arrives 5 to 10 days after dispatch. Once you approve the fit, the wool suit takes another 3 to 4 weeks and arrives 5 to 10 days after dispatch, so allow for both if you need it by a date.
Q. How do I care for it?
A. Dry clean rarely, because cleaning wears wool more than wearing does. Hang the skirt by its waistband and the jacket on a shaped hanger, and brush both after wearing.
