Product Insights

Contemporaine's Faux-Suede Flared Maxi Skirt is a sustainability upgrade over cheap virgin-polyester options, using 92% recycled polyester that is chemically identical to virgin but reduces energy by 59% and CO2 by 71%. At C$89, it undercuts comparable styles (C$110 faux leather, C$120 MESHKI) yet costs more than fast-fashion virgin-polyester skirts (US$24.90). The raw-cut hem resists fraying due to faux suede's nonwoven knit structure, extending garment life and eliminating material waste from hemming, while its lack of bulk enables a fluid A-line drape. Added 8% spandex provides stretch, and dark shades (Brown, Chocolate/Espresso) are opaque without a slip; the warm-toned brown vs cool-toned chocolate/Espresso is a buyer tradeoff. Machine washable and hang-dry care, with a velvety fabric and non-fraying hem for skin comfort.

Material
Chemically identical to virgin polyester, with no trade-off in durability or comfort.
Eco-positioning
Sustainability upgrade over cheap virgin options, without the eco-brand premium.
Raw hem benefit
Raw hem resists fraying, extending garment life and reducing material waste.
Recycled content
92% recycled polyester content is chemically identical to virgin, with 59% less energy and 71% less CO2.
Hem durability

Sustainable pricing
At C$89, this skirt uses recycled polyester vs virgin polyester in fast-fashion at US$24.90.
Comfort and practicality
8% spandex adds stretch, faux suede is opaque in dark shades, and it's machine washable.
Fray resistance
Raw-cut hem will not fray over time due to faux suede's non-raveling structure.
Raw hem design
Raw hem's lack of bulk enables a fluid A-line drape and intentional contemporary look.
Shade and undertone
Brown is warm-toned; Chocolate/Espresso is cool-toned and darker.
Opacity
Dark shades (Brown and Chocolate/Espresso) ensure the unlined skirt is opaque without a slip.
Fit and stretch
Elastic waist and flared cut fit various shapes, stretch holds over time.
Fabric comfort
Velvety fabric and non-fraying hem prevent skin irritation during movement.
