Why it's worth it
The bubble hem turns inward on itself — volume with a clean edge, no ruffle required.
The Edit
Dark brown cotton poplin gathered at a wide waistband and released into a full bubble silhouette — the hem folds back under itself to create the cocoon shape without boning or padding. A self-covered rectangular buckle belt is set into the waistband, sitting above the gather to hold the volume in place. Concealed side zip closure; rayon lining prevents cling through the skirt's considerable fullness.
