Florentina Ikat Maxi Skirt

Terrifically Fetching.

She steps onto the balcony, all of Florence at her feet. A sea of russet-tiled roofs, the Duomo, the sundrenched horizon.

Above one ear, a lush white Iris florentina tucked into her hair. I happen to know she plucked it yesterday from an olive grove near Radda, and before she drove away, our mutual friend Piero loaded buckets of the flowers into the back seat of her ‘73 Corniche.

Now they perfume every room of her flat.

Later over perfectly-mixed Palomas, Piero tells me he’s in love, as if that isn’t the most obvious thing in the world.

Florentina Ikat Maxi Skirt (No. J8138). The story begins with a flattering waist yoke that falls into three tiered layers of breezy cotton to a terrifically fetching conclusion just at the ankle. Lined in cool, airy cotton. Invisible zipper and hook and eye at wearer’s left side seam. Destined to become your most interesting travel skirt, even if you’re only venturing to the local la panetteria. Imported.
