Description
The son of Tunisian wheat farmers, Azzedine Alaïa's affinity for fashion was nurtured by the glossy pages of Vogue, instilling him with a drive to reach the glittering streets of Paris. Opening his atelier in the late 1970s, the designer electrified the capital with his second-skin silhouettes that question the boundaries between flesh and fabric, just like this midi skirt. Cut with a dipped waist, it’s swathed in a feathery velvet texture and stitched with stripes of ribbed knit descending its sculptural panels.| Alaïa velvet midi skirt63% viscose, 37% polyamide; contrast 75% viscose, 24% polyamide, 1% polyurethaneSlips onFitted, mid-waist, dipped waistband, at front, elasticated, all-over contrast chunky ribbed pattern, gathered and ruched at centre, ribbed trimsSpecialist dry clean onlyMade in ItalyTrue to sizeSize UK 8: length 40in / 102cmModel is 5ft 11in/1.80m and wears a size UK 8Midweight, stretchy
