Details & Care

Wear it short and cheeky or below the knee sophisticated

We can make your tartan pencil skirt in the length of your choice - a super short mini or a sophisticated below the knee style. Fully lined and made in lightweight pure new wool in the tartan of your choice this is a very versatile addition to your wardrobe. Not to mention that pencil skirts are just so in this season! Button and zip fastening at the back, with a kick pleat so you can still walk.

The maximum length is 28 inches or 70cm in this style but we can make longer skirts for a small surcharge. Email us the length you require and we can quote for you.

FAQ
Where did the design of a pencil skirt come from?

    The idea for this specific skirt was originally created to stop the first ever female passenger on a Wright Brother Airplane, Edith Berg, from having her skirt blow up in the wind. The pilots on this flight decided to tie a cord around the bottom of Edith’s skirt, near her ankles, to prevent it flying up. This caught the eyes of Parisian designers and eventually Dior created a modern pencil skirt in the 1950s. 

What can I wear with my tartan pencil skirt?

    A pencil skirt is a figure-fitting, smart garment. A matching tartan blazer would pair wonderfully, or even a wool sweater. For the full look you may also find a pair of kitten heels to be an excellent choice for this outfit. We have a large range of women’s accessories available, such as a shoulder bag, that might just be the finishing touch needed to walk in style. 

What measurements need to be taken for the pencil skirt?

    Three measurements will be needed to help you find the right size of pencil skirt. You will need a tape measure to find your waist, hip and length measurements. Our Women’s Tartan Skirt Sizing Guide can give you more details to make sure you are taking the measurements correctly. If you need any help do not hesitate to get in contact with us by phone or email, we even take virtual measuring appointments.
