Daphne Valente

Delphos Skirt Long

$301

Why it's worth it

Ink column that slims the silhouette before the top even lands.

The Edit

Accordion pleating this dense, pulled into a bodycon silhouette — the ink purple holds depth in both flat light and candlelight. An elasticated waistband keeps the fit clean with no zipper interruption, while the hem releases into a micro-frill that softens the otherwise strict column shape. The pleats do what structure usually requires hardware to achieve.
