Soft and beautifully cut, this baby blue chambray maxi skirt sits at a neat fitted waist and releases into a full A-line sweep that falls to the ankle with real ease and movement. The colour is a quiet, washed blue that photographs beautifully and wears even better in person. The fabric is cotton chambray with a fine woven texture and a soft hand. It has the relaxed quality of a well-loved piece of clothing, the kind that feels broken-in from day one. The back zip sits flat and the waistband is clean and structured without being stiff.

Tuck in a fitted white or cream blouse or T-shirt and add neutral espadrille sandals for a summer afternoon that looks effortless. Wear it with our Baby Blue Sheer Woven Spot Blouse for a tonal look. A terracotta linen shirt worn loose and half-tucked works beautifully with the blue, as does a bold poppy red knit in cooler months. Add flat leather sandals or your favourite white sneakers and keep the top simple. The skirt does the talking. This skirt works especially well if you carry your volume more through the hip and thigh than through the waist, as the A-line cut skims evenly from the waist down and the full sweep through the hem creates a long, balanced line. It also suits those who are fairly even through the waist and hip and want a skirt with movement rather than structure. The maxi length elongates the leg regardless of height.
