Petite Jacquard Side Pocket Full Skirt

Full midi skirt cut to sit at the natural waist, with deep box pleats that release into a wide, sweeping hem - it holds its shape without feeling stiff. Jacquard fabric carries a woven botanical motif that shifts in the light, giving the skirt its own presence without the need for embellishment. The viscose-blend jacquard delivers a soft drape and cool handfeel, so the skirt skims rather than clings as you move through a room. High waistband sits cleanly at the natural waist, defining the silhouette and providing a structured anchor for the volume below. Side pockets sit discreetly within the pleats - functional, and entirely in keeping with the tailored finish of the skirt. Fully lined for a smooth, polished fall from waist to hem, with an approximate length of 90cm - midi length that works across heel heights. The structure here is deliberate. Box pleats stitched flat at the waistband then left to open through the skirt create volume that feels considered rather than excessive - this is a skirt that photographs well but is just as compelling in person. The woven jacquard motif adds depth and richness that reads as thoroughly occasion-appropriate without veering into costume territory. Styled as seen, with a sleek satin-finish scoop-neck top tucked in and strappy kitten-heel sandals, the look is complete and requires very little else. For a wedding or formal event, swap to a structured blazer or tailored evening jacket and a pointed court heel to sharpen the silhouette further. A fine-knit fitted top works equally well for a gallery opening or a dressed-up dinner. The skirt carries the occasion - the top simply needs to get out of its way. | Karen Millen Women's Petite Jacquard Side Pocket Full Skirt in Chocolate | Size: 10
