This stunning maxi skirt redefines modern bohemia with its statement dropped waist silhouette — one of the season’s most coveted shapes. Designed to sit lower on the waist before falling into a fluid, full-length hem, it creates an effortlessly cool, elongated line.
Crafted from intricate cotton lace, the texture is the hero — detailed, breathable and undeniably elevated. The delicate embroidered finish brings depth and dimension, giving it that luxe, directional edge seen across this season’s runways.
A soft elastic waistband keeps the look relaxed and wearable, while the skirt is fully lined for complete coverage without losing its light, airy movement.
Style it back with a fitted tank, an oversized knit or a cropped jacket for a modern contrast. This is statement dressing made effortless — romantic, contemporary and designed to turn heads.
Length: 101cm
Fit: true to size
Ilona wears a size Small. She is 179cm tall with an 89cm bust, 66cm waist and 91cm hips.

Customer Fit Feedback
Several reviewers say the fit is spot on or perfect, and one customer who sized up returned for her usual size. A few noted there is room in the waist or chose to size up only because they did not want it snug over the lower tummy, so shoppers between sizes may prefer their usual size unless they want a looser fit.

- "“The lace adds a bit of interest/glam to this skirt, while the lining keeps it nice and comfy.”"

How does the sizing run for this lace skirt?
Sizing feedback is mostly positive, with 5 out of 10 reviewers commenting on fit or size.
