Product Insights
Contemporaine's Vertical Cutouts Denim Midi Skirt is a 9.99 CAD Baby Blue denim midi, currently out of stock with one review, whose defining move is sewn vertical cutouts rather than open slits: opaque fabric at the cutouts removes the need for lining, and the sewn panels create a flared A-line with fullness below the hip while the waist stays close. Its 41% lyocell blend gives a soft, draping hand and tear strength, so the flare hangs rather than stands stiff; only 1% elastane adds slight stretch, and the paneled cut, not the fabric, sets fit. Exposed beige topstitching on pale blue reads as a soft tonal accent rather than bold workwear, putting stitch and seam quality on view. The 34-inch hem sits at mid-calf in flats and just below the knee in 3-inch heels, but that length is quoted for size 4, so the available Baby Blue sizes 8, 10 and 12 hang lower. Tradeoffs: the lyocell-rich surface, not the stitching, ages first at rub points such as bag straps; softness holds but abrasion wear comes sooner. EIM score 17 signals low environmental impact across water, energy, chemicals and worker health, though it covers only denim washing and finishing, not fibre growing, spinning or dyeing. An in-house Simons label from a Quebec house family-owned since 1840, Contemporaine edits trends into simple, versatile, timeless pieces.
Verified claims
- Cutout design
- Sewn vertical cutouts, not open slits, build the flared silhouette with no skin showing.

- Cutout silhouette
- Sewn vertical panels create the flared A-line midi, adding fullness below the hip while the waist stays close.
- Seam styling
- Beige contrast seams over pale blue denim read as a soft tonal accent, not a loud workwear line.
- Length
- The 34-inch hem sits at mid-calf in flats and just below the knee in 3-inch heels.

- Size grading
