This unworn vintage A-line skirt from the 1970's is adjustable and effortlessly cool. The front features a darling reverse double pleat, designed to show the interior three bright purple buttons when you walk. The buttons function! You can undo them to let our the front slit, and make this hit above the knee. The skirt is well-constructed, with paneling and seams down the front, back and sides.
With darts on the back waist, it's flattering for many body shapes. It has a back zipper and button closure, and hemmed belt loops, this is a great forever piece ready to wear as-is, or customized to fit your body.
The fabric is 100% polyester, with a lightweight white and navy blue micro checkered plaid pattern.
Condition: Pristine.
Makers Mark: All original store tags in tact, along with the interior label "Jerry Leigh". Marked size 14 (a 1970's 14 is roughly todays 10).
Mannequin Measurements: Bust - 35 // Waist - 25 // Hips - 35.5 // Rise - 12 // Inseam - 29 (I cinched it and uncinched it on the mannequin, please see all photos).
