Black Brocade Midi Flare Skirt With Belt

$767

Available sizes 6 8 14

Why it's worth it

Grandma's sofa fabric, but make it a skirt — and mean it.

The Edit

Cut from a heavy brocade — 42% cotton with recycled polyester and acrylic — this midi flare skirt carries the weight of upholstery fabric in the best possible way, with a raw frayed hem that undercuts the formality. The silhouette flares from the hip in a controlled A-line, held in at the waist by a chunky silver western buckle belt included in the kit. The dark ground lets the oversized botanical print read as rich rather than chaotic.

Insider Tip

The raw frayed hem is intentional — don't try to press or finish it, it's the whole point.
