Shipping Notes: This Skirt will be shipped by the seller, who is US based. Therefore it will attract an automatic postage charge of £27 (the standard int'l shipping rate) which will compensate the seller for the charges they occur. The seller is not registered for sales tax so there is no tax to reclaim. UK customers will not pay any import tax or duties. Other countries: depending on your location you may be charged import tax and duties by the customs office in your country of residence. Neither the seller nor The Slow Wardrobe has any control over this.
Introduced for the warmer months of the year in our medium-weight linen, the back panels overlap from one side seam all the way to the other, so even in gale-force winds, you won't be left standing in your underwear.
The other advantage of having the wrap panels in the back rather than the more often-seen front, is that a double panel in the front means a double layer of fabric covering your legs when you sit down; not the best idea during the warmer season!
The wide, sturdy waistband resembles an OBI belt: it doesn't collapse on itself and can be worn either loose or wrapped quite tightly if that gives you the look you are after. The flexibility of the waist measurement also means you can choose whether to wrap this skirt high up on your waist or wear it lower down if that is your preferred look.
The Slow Wardrobe sizes
We follow our own sizing system, recognising that the traditional system of "ladies dress-sizes" does not account for body shape and height. See how The Slow Wardrobe sizes relate to body measurements HERE.
Skirts
These garments are designed to fit a very wide range of sizes and heights, from a UK size 10 to 28. Check these garment measurements to give you an idea of their dimensions. All skirt lengths are measured from the top of the waistband down to the bottom of the hem, along the side seam.
