Synthesis Skirt Vintage Silk
Synthesis Skirt Vintage Silk
These Japanese cotton skirts by RANT Clothing are 100% Australian made
This skirt was designed to be a statement piece, something extra special using a vintage silk fabric. The base of the fabric is a silk Dupion which is decorated with bias strips of black or white stitched and overlaid in circles. The skirt has a flat front panel that has pockets inserted behind, the sides and back of the skirt is almost a full circle. The fullness swoops around from the front to fold into swathes of fabric at the back, looking spectacular when you walk.
Although you can wear the Synthesis skirt on it's own, it has been designed to match with the Banksii petticoat, with it's 3 metre ruffle fanning out from under the Synthesis skirt hem.
This combo can be seen in the images. If you love this combo and want to purchase the Synthesis skirt with the Banksii Petticoat together a 10% discount (off both items) will be automatically applied at the checkout.
These divine skirts are truly limited edition, only 2 of each size (S/M/L) have been made with enough fabric to make just a few more, so if your size is sold out, contact us to custom order one, while there is fabric available.
This style is prewashed in rainwater at our home studio.
