Houndstooth high waist mini skirt in khaki
$23.99
Check price & buyHoundstooth in three muted browns: coffee, khaki and a plain brown. The skirt sits high on the waist and flares into a short A-line, cut from a thick woven cloth that is fully opaque and holds its shape rather than folding around the legs. The pockets at the front are decorative only, and a concealed zip at the back does the fastening. New enough here that the feedback is still thin.

What the houndstooth high waist mini skirt actually does
A short skirt with a weave stiff enough to keep its shape through a day in a chair.
1
A weave with body to it
The cloth is thick enough to stand slightly away from the hip, which is what keeps a short A-line looking like a skirt rather than a draped panel. It is also fully opaque, so nothing is needed underneath the lighter colourways.
2
Faux pockets, flat front
The pocket openings at the front are styling rather than storage. That sounds like a cheat until you have worn a short skirt with real front pockets and watched them gape; keeping them shut keeps the line clean.
3
Three browns rather than black
Coffee, khaki and brown put the skirt alongside autumn knitwear instead of in competition with it. Houndstooth in these shades also reads softer than the black and white version that turns up on every school blazer.
Fit, honestly
High waisted with an A-line flare and a short hem; the zip is concealed in the back seam. The thick weave offers little stretch, so the waist measurement is the one to check before ordering. Very new to the catalogue, with only a handful of reviews behind it so far.
- High waist, A-line, mini length.
- Hidden zip in the back seam.
- Front pockets are decorative.
- Thick woven fabric, fully opaque.
