Classic vintage chocolate brown & ivory Irish wool tweed skirt. Not sure if this piece’s exact age but it is mid century, looks early 1950’s.
♥️
Label reads made in the Republic of Ireland, 100% pure new wool. This is a well constructed high quality vintage piece, looks expensive.
Flat waistband is lined in brown striped vintage grosgrain ribbon, no stretch. Back metal zip with metal hooks.
The skirt is fitted at the high waist and is fired so that it has a flared bell shaped silhouette.
Fully lined in brown acetate, has the original hem with lace tape.
MIdi length or below the knee depending on your height.
✂️ Size on label: n/a- fits like a modern S.
Please refer to measurements to be sure of proper fit. Measurements are taken laying flat, seam to seam, not doubled.
Across waist: @12.25” (x2) 25@ max when flat across the band.
Across hips, measured flat across, 6” down from top of waistband: 18” (x2)
Length: 26.5”
Across bottom sweep: 34” (x2)
Clean wearable condition though sadly there are some moth holes. The largest is a quarter size, on the back by the center at hem.
Held up to the light I see about 8 small moth holes but they are not too noticeable when worn. There is a section of the acetate lining that has moth holes.
I’m offering this piece because they aren’t too noticeable (maybe just the quarter size hole) This is such a well made vintage piece it’s worth restoring or can be worn as is.
Skirt has been professionally dry cleaned so it shouldn’t have further moth issues, and is ready to wear. No stains, other issues or odors.
