having more than one decidedly dissimilar aspects or qualities.
I know pencil skirts are quite trendy right now, but I like them and wanted to make my own version. This is a narrow pencil skirt that wraps into two folds on the side, giving it a narrow and somewhat asymmetric profile but still allowing room to move - twofold.
In my shop at noon on Friday.

I love it - it’s outstanding! Beautiful take on the pencil skirt (which is always a timeless,flattering cut)…..
And that top! Tell. Me. More. It’s perfect for fall - you can wear it alone or layer it. That neck is exactly what I want for fall.

You remain elusive and marvellous.

This skirt looks lovely as usual! The top that is one of my favorites looks perfect w/ this skirt. What size are you going to list? If it is not my size, I will stop dreaming about it.

i can
never
get enough
of pencil skirts…
although it
would help
if *i* was
more
pencil-like.
love the
combinations
of folds
and drapes
with the top
and bottom.

i’ve never commented before, though i’ve looked for awhile. this skirt made it impossible to maintain anonymity: IT IS SO BEAUTIFUL.

something that appears this simple had to have been very difficult to design. it gives the appearance of being uncomplicated, but i know unadorned elegance is arrived at with great effort.
on Thursday, August 14th, 2008 at 7:18 pm:
how could i forget to add: simply beautiful.

[…] De la recherche, de l’épure et un résultat qui me laisse souvent admirative. Récemment, cette jupe m’a impressionnée. Ses mots préférés : processus, fabrication, inspiration. Envie […]

i can’t find it now (but it was the week of sept 15-19), but i believe i saw a respondent wearing this skirt on a blog feature called: “what to wear on a first date”.
