Creator's Notes

The SCHOOL SKIRT is a reinterpretation of the schoolgirl skirts of yesteryear, but in a long, modest and ultra-modern version.


I wanted to keep that retro charm that we love, while creating a piece adapted to our needs: a beautiful, flowing and structured cut, marked pleats, an elasticated waist at the back, zipped pockets and an opaque and resistant gabardine.


This is the skirt I would have dreamed of wearing when I was younger, and that I am proud to offer you today 🤍

The long schoolgirl skirt: a strong comeback in women's fashion

The long school skirt is much more than just a piece of clothing. It evokes a timeless style reminiscent of school uniforms of yesteryear while adapting to current fashion trends. This textile has become a key piece for those seeking to combine modesty and elegance. So, let's explore together all the aspects that make this skirt the must-have of the moment.

The retro charm of the long schoolgirl skirt

It's hard to resist the retro aesthetic of the long school skirt. Inspired by the traditional outfits worn by young girls in the past at school, this skirt reinterprets classics with a modern twist. Its iconic design typically includes elements such as pronounced pleats or a checkered pattern, recalling the classic student look with a hint of refined elegance.

Many women are turning to this elongated version of the school skirt, particularly for its ability to lengthen the silhouette and offer unparalleled comfort. The SCHOOL SKIRT is a great example of this trend, combining a nostalgic design with modern features, such as discreet zip pockets and a loose fit made easier by its generous pleats .

A symbol of modesty and refinement

For many, the schoolgirl skirt represents a symbol of modesty and sophistication. Its fitted length not only helps maintain certain dress codes, especially for those who value restraint in their lifestyle, but also allows them to assert their style in everyday life. Pairing this skirt with an elegant shirt instantly creates an effortless formal look , perfect for many occasions.

The elastic at the back of the SCHOOL SKIRT's waistband allows for welcome flexibility, while the tight gabardine weave ensures complete opacity. This juxtaposition magnifies its ability to combine practicality with aesthetics, creating a decidedly versatile piece of clothing.

The practical details that set the SCHOOL SKIRT apart

With the SCHOOL SKIRT, forget safety pins and other video tricks to prevent a skirt from slipping. Equipped with a discreet zipper on each side, it conveniently accommodates your little everyday treasures while adding a utilitarian dimension to its traditional beauty. These pockets also provide a contemporary touch too often overlooked in similar classic designs.

In terms of design, the skirt adopts a gabardine fabric, known for its durability and resistance to snags thanks to its dense weave. This not only contributes to a beautiful fit, ensuring that your silhouette remains impeccable all day long, but also extends its longevity even after multiple washes.

A versatile cut suitable for all occasions

What truly sets the schoolgirl maxi skirt apart from other clothing items is its versatile look, which allows it to adapt to different situations. Whether for a formal business meeting or a friendly dinner, it can be easily combined with a variety of accessories, allowing you to vary your looks depending on the mood of the day.

For example, you can choose to wear the SCHOOL SKIRT with a light sweater and sneakers for a casual outing, or pair it with a fitted top and ankle boots for an uncompromisingly chic effect. Its versatile nature makes it an undeniable asset for any modern wardrobe seeking pragmatic elegance.

How to naturally integrate a long skirt into your wardrobe?

Although sometimes considered intimidating to some, the maxi skirt offers an incredible range of stylistic possibilities when properly integrated into your wardrobe. To begin, it's essential to understand how it can complement other common components of your wardrobe. For example, when contrasted with a voluminous top, it immediately creates a flattering harmony of proportions.

Some will prefer to opt for neutral colors to combine with striking patterns, ensuring a visual balance between sobriety and originality. Thanks to its imposing yet fluid texture, it embodies the perfect piece for experimenting with different looks without ever sacrificing comfort.

Mix and match: the key to a unique personal style

To accentuate the uniqueness of your clothing style, don't hesitate to mix this skirt with various materials and accessories. Pairing the schoolgirl skirt with a denim jacket or a structured coat will add unexpected depth to your outfit without compromising that characteristic school spirit. Discreet jewelry enhances the overall look, ensuring finesse and aesthetic continuity.

In this fashion adventure, the key lies in the judicious combination of textures and volumes to create cohesive outfits. Experiment freely and find the balance that suits you.

Why choose a schoolgirl skirt for a capsule wardrobe?

Creating a capsule wardrobe centered around a schoolgirl skirt may seem daring, but it offers undeniable advantages in terms of flexibility and efficiency. Not only does it easily find its place throughout the seasons, but it also plays an essential role as an intermediary between basic and sophisticated garments.

Paired with simple tops like ribbed tank tops or elegant blouses, it creates sophisticated configurations synonymous with refined simplicity. Its subtle presence conveys a strong, stylized personality anchored in the collective memory.

Optimizing the key elements of a successful capsule wardrobe

Building on the solid foundations of years past, building a wardrobe that includes the SCHOOL SKIRT proves fruitful if accompanied by the right textile additions. Simplicity dictates that you start with a few key pieces emulsified around them, drastically minimizing any unnecessary storage:

  • Monochrome tops that match perfectly with the understated color palette of your maxi skirt.
  • Seasonally appropriate footwear (sandals for summer, boots for winter).
  • Simple coats that harmoniously wrap the structure of the whole, favoring lightness and constant functionality.

Incorporating these suggestions will harmoniously orchestrate a balanced dance between everyday utility and sustainable investment, gradually catalyzing that beloved semi-formal ambiance.

Schoolgirl Skirt vs. Other Skirt Styles: A Comparison

Diversifying your personal collection requires understanding the profound nuances that differentiate each existing model, including the schoolgirl skirt, from its competitive rivals. Let's briefly compare their distinctive features:

Skirt type Main features Adapting to occasions
Long schoolgirl skirt Pronounced pleats, adjustable, inspired by the school uniform Versatile, ideal for everyday wear and formal outings
Tulle skirt Light and vaporous, often used for its airy volume Mainly dedicated to festive events or ceremonies
Denim skirt Sturdy, often straight, offering a casual look Suitable for leisure, casual outings or casual Fridays

Analyzing from this perspective reinforces the relevance of investing in modernized versions of vintage styles imbued with a classic flavor, accompanied by an innovative concept for an overall satisfactory result for informed and prudent investors, wishing to optimize with calculation the authentic and creative potential exploited.

It is available in two lengths:

- T1: 100cm
If you don't like your skirt to drag and you're under 5'7", this length is for you.

- T2: 110cm
Team - 1m70: If you like to wear your skirt long, hiked up and/or covering your feet, this is the one for you.
Team +1m70: No doubt, size 2 is made for you!

The best way to know which skirt size is best for you is to measure from where you want the top of your skirt to sit to where you want it to sit. This isn't about your height, but rather your body shape, as we all have different proportions and wear skirts differently.

Care instructions:

This piece is crafted from high-quality gabardine with a fluid, structured drape. To preserve its appearance and shape, we recommend machine washing in cold water (maximum 30°C) on a delicate cycle. Use a mild, bleach-free detergent and turn the skirt inside out before washing to reduce friction.

Avoid the dryer: dry flat or on a hanger, away from direct light. If necessary, iron on the reverse side at a medium temperature. For optimal care and extended durability, dry cleaning remains the best occasional option.
