Why it's worth it
Same plaid, one pencil silhouette and one cascading panel — the cut argues with itself.
The Edit
Fitted through the hips in midweight cotton-viscose Prince of Wales check, this pencil skirt splits at the front with a sharp slit on one side and releases into a sculpted, floor-grazing flared panel on the other — the two hemispheres sewn from the same cloth but behaving entirely differently. The high waist is cinched by an invisible side zip, keeping the exterior completely clean. Unlined construction lets the check move naturally at the flare without adding bulk.
