Story

The Soleil Skirt is so named for the many things about it that remind me of the sun: the circular waistband, the curved front pockets, the round button cinching the side, the darts radiating from the waist like a sunbeam — and, of course, the sunny disposition of the silhouette. With a subtle A-line shape and a flattering just-below-the-knee length, the Soleil Skirt is the perfect companion for a warm, sunny day.

Materials

This skirt is made of GOTS-certified organic cotton fabric from India. The fabric is soft, airy, and lightweight and is only slightly sheer when unlined. The check pattern woven into the fabric reminds me of a vintage print one would find on a mid-century sundress, but I like to think this fabric is even better because it's organic! The checks measure about a quarter of an inch and are navy blue on an ivory background. In addition to pairing well with navy and ivory, of course, the fabric also goes great with black and yellow.

The skirt is lined with undyed GOTS-certified organic cotton double gauze, produced in a Fair Trade certified mill in India. Our lining fabric is unbelievably soft and breathable and makes for a perfect lightweight layer against your skin.

In addition to the fabric, this skirt uses organic cotton thread, a YKK zipper, one vintage plastic button, organic cotton interfacing, and organic cotton labels.

Fit

Take a look at our Size Guide to find your size.

The Soleil is most fitted in the waist, so use your waist measurement when determining your size. Although the style runs true to size, there is very little ease in the waistband, so I recommend sizing up if you fall in between sizes.

Sophie is wearing a size 4 and is 5'8" with a 36" bust, 28" waist, and 38" hip.
