1970s Red Wool Blend A-Line Maxi Skirt

This floor length skirt is knitted in a rich red blend with a soft, brushed hand, cut in a true A-line that falls straight from a fitted waistband to the floor. Vertical panel seaming runs through the front and back, giving the skirt its clean line and gentle flare at the hem. The knit has a lovely weight and drape, holding its shape while still moving easily as you walk.
An A-line maxi in a colour this rich can be the whole outfit, so keep the rest simple with a fitted knit top and simple jewellery. For evening, add statement earrings and let the length and colour carry the look. This is an easy piece to build a capsule around, whether you are dressing for a long lunch or an evening out.
