About MeThis Chinese silk skirt is formed of two joined pieces, attached with knot and loop fittings to the waist panel.
Each decorative panel has black, lilac, pale blue and embroidered royal blue strips arranged in geometric designs with an embroidered panel of pink roses inbetween. These panels are lined with royal blue rough silk with a layer of interlining.
The whole skirt fastens in wrapover fashion, using the loop tabs which are attached to each end of the waist panel.
There are no works to discover for this record.
