Zero Waste Gathered Skirt Abstract Print
Product Description
Another timeless design, The Zero Waste Skirt is based on the classic Peasant/Dirndl skirt from the 1940’s. The Zero Waste Skirt is a gathered skirt with a deep waist band and features deep side pockets, a side opening with vintage or repurposed buttons and tailored french seam finish. It is hand made in a truly slow fashion way. Australian womens clothing.
The Zero Waste Skirt is comfortable with a fitted waist and just enough volume. It is perfect for the warmer months or pair it with tights and boots for a cooler day. This skirt has been made with a Linen/Nylon blend Italian deadstock fabric with organic cotton lining, thus leaving a reduced environmental footprint and saving fabrics from landfill. Due to being made from dead stock fabric, this is a limited release. Keeping in line with slow fashion, once the listed sizes are sold, there will be no more in this print.
When you have finished with me, please hand me on to someone else, donate to charity if I am in a good condition or sell me on a second hand clothing platform. Please don’t throw me out. We say no to fast fashion and encourage slow fashion living.
