Retro High Waist Denim Fishtail Skirt

Rigid cotton denim, buttoned at the natural waist, with a fishtail hem that flares past the knee.

You pull the skirt on in the morning, button it at the natural waist, and the seam settles right at the narrowest part of your torso. The rigid cotton denim has weight, the fishtail hem drops past the knee, and the topstitching catches the light a little when you turn at the mirror. First coffee of the day, no waistband sliding, no pulling at the back yoke when you sit.

By the third or fourth wear the denim starts breaking in along the hip line, learning the way you stand. After a cold wash and a line dry, the indigo holds, the seams stay even, and the back vent opens just enough for stairs and a quick step off a curb. The hem keeps its A line flare, so it walks without bunching when you cross a busy street.

Built on a rigid cotton denim with a touch of stretch, bartacked at the pocket corners, and finished with metal hardware that does not scratch through a tucked blouse. The fishtail cut releases at the knee, leaving room to pedal a bike or climb a fire escape. Pair with loafers and a white tee for the office, ankle boots and a silk cami for drinks.

Why It Works
