Le Vestiaire de Cle Skirt, size 1 [SOLD]

 

What: Gathered wool blend skirt from French indie brand Le Vestiaire de Clé, from their Winter "Basiques" 2011-2012 line. Gathered waist, simple cut, large hem (for weight and for lengthening if needed). Very soft, lightweight material with subtle black and charcoal plaid pattern. Unlined. I have quite a few VdC items in my closet and they are very well made and beautifully cut. Made in France.

Fabric: A wool blend,  hand wash and line dry. Very soft, slightly sheer and crinkly. From the label: 39% viscose; 38% wool; 12% acrylique; 11% polyamide.

Size and Fit: Size 1, which for VdC means French size 36-38 (roughly US size 4-6). Fits true to size. Length: approx 22 1/2" (knee-length on me). Waist: 12 1/4" unstretched, but it is elastic and has plenty  of stretch. I have a 28" waist and can wear this comfortably.

Condition: Nearly new. Purchased from France in December and worn once. No stains, tears, or marks.

Why I'm selling: I have too many skirts right now!

Asking: I paid about $80 on sale; asking $45 shipped. Listing ends in a week.
