Polished fit for cold-weather outfits
This plaid wool midi skirt fits true to size and offers an on-trend, polished shape. Since the wool is unlined, it is necessary to wear tights or a slip underneath for comfortable winter office wear.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Plaid Wool Midi Skirt: Choose this if you want a flared A-line midi in a soft, supple wool-blend weave (50% wool, 50% reprocessed viscose), cut on the bias so the small-scale plaid reads as diagonal diamonds, with a narrow waistband at the natural waist, slit side-seam pockets, and a hidden back zip. Per the analysis of customer reviews, it fits true to size and its flow and shape read polished for winter office wear. Plan to wear tights or a slip underneath, since reviewers report the unlined wool feels itchy against bare skin, and one ecru-colorway buyer reportedly received brown, so verify the color before removing tags.[1,2,3,4] | Stretch Gingham Pencil Skirt: Choose this if you want a high-waist, midi-length pencil skirt in a small black-and-white gingham check for office or smart-casual wear, with a back slit and a lined, airy build reviewers describe as breathable in warm weather and resistant to show-through. Its wrinkle-resistant, easy-care fabric reportedly rolls small and stays polished after unpacking, making it a pick for travel and low-maintenance routines. Note that the slim, figure-hugging cut emphasizes curves and may run too tight on fuller hips if you prefer a relaxed or modest fit.[5,6,7,8] | Pleated Structured Twill Flared Skirt: Choose this for a structured, flared midi skirt crafted from dense, slightly stretch cotton twill. It features an A-line silhouette with a pleated waist and prominent box pleats, offering defined shape and movement. This design is completed with functional slant pockets and a wide stitched hem band.[9,10,11,12] |

Plaid skirt
Fits true to size and has a beautiful flow/shape. A beautiful winter skirt! The skirt is not lined so the wool is quite itchy so pairing it with tights or a slip is a must.

Disappointing
This skirt is a nice color, but it would have better drape and feel if it was lined. I returned it
Fits perfect with a nice drape
Honestly a beautiful wool skirt. It's not lined but I do have my own slip to wear because wool is not nice to sit on bare butt in my own opinion. But it's honestly a very on trend well shaped skirt that I think I will get a lot of use of.
Pas la couleur décrite
La couleur décrite etait écru malheureusement la couleur réelle est marron! Dois la retourner,dommage!
