This Beatrix Linen Skirt is the latest addition to the Blue Lady Couture 'Classic Collection', offering lovely vintage style and Edwardian charm with spacious pockets, inspired by styles of the later 1910s.
This skirt is made from a shortened version of the Edwardian Walking Skirts, so has plenty of swish, but lends itself to all sorts of adventuring for ladies who like to add a bit of period elegance to their wardrobe and not be hindered by long skirts. The panels are fitted to the waist with pleating detail at the centre back, flaring out to below the knee.
Based on shorter and fuller skirt styles seen in sporting outfits of the early twentieth century.
The Beatrix Skirt is made from our lovely 100% linen fabric that comes in a gorgeous range of colours to suit all tastes. It is a medium weight linen that is lovely and cool in summer, but equally wears well with tights or leggings and a petticoat in cooler months. The deep, roomy pockets are trimmed with ribbon and decorative, silk covered buttons handmade from remnant pieces of English or Indian silk (I can use non-silk on request).

Choose your preferred trim colour from the drop down menu. I have so many colour options I will choose a shade that works best with your linen and my available button silks.
In the additional info box please provide your waist and hip measurements.
The length is approx. 70cm. I can make it shorter on request by putting details in the additional info box. The skirt fastens at the centre back with a button (plus second button for a little ease) and hooks and eyes with a placket under the pleats.
