Simple but so sweet white cotton Edwardian Summer walking skirt with pale blue stripes with three pin tucked folds at the ankles. Typical shape of the 1910s with straight sillhouette from the front with more folds of fabric at the back, where the stripes form a chevron at the centre back seam.

  • Beautiful soft fine cotton/linen Edwardian skirt.
  • Pin tucked folds just above the hemline.
  • Straight sillhouette at the front with folds of fabric at the rear adding volume.
  • MEASURES when laid flat edge to edge
  • Up to 27" waist when the gather is opened up fully.
  • Hip free
  • 37" length

In good wearable condition, the main issue is fading to a couple of patches at the front, probably where it has been on display near a window at some point of the past. The blue of the entire skirt is quite light, so this.

  • Care Hand wash
  • Fabric Cotton
  • Type Antique

Good to know

Colour Disclaimer

We have done our best to describe the colours and shades of the fabric, clothes and products listed here, but because monitors vary in the display of colour differently and some descriptive terms used for shades of colour can be perceived and interpreted differently, depending on the viewer, we cannot be held responsible if you receive something and the colour doesn't look how you envisioned it would.

Online shopping does create challenges in this respect, so if you have your heart set on a very specific type of colour or shade, in order to avoid disappointment, please contact us first so we can try and provide more information regarding the item you're interested in.  We do not offer refunds for differing colour perceptions.

Caring for vintage

All our vintage items are individually selected for their quality and style. Vintage items may come with minor flaws due to pre-loved wear, bearing in mind 'vintage' means older than 20 years, 'antique' means over 100 years old. 

As with all vintage the number one rule is take care!

The garments will likely be over 20 years old or even 120 years old so please bear that in mind when dressing and handling. The older/antique items do require very careful handling as natural products used in the cottons and fabrics are more susceptible to natural wear and becoming fragile.

Hand-wash when you can, gently will cool water and special detergent designed for vintage clothing. Leave to soak overnight, do not wring or spin. Use a towel to wrap and soak up most of the water.

Be mindful that most of the older fabrics will not react well to washing machines or dry cleaning, unless they are a specialist cleaner.

With suits and outerwear, dry brush and lightly steam.

Steaming is good for most vintage, the steam kills bacteria and smells, then you can give it a brush afterwards.

To deodorise - we use a special mix of alcohol and anti bacterial essences, our own brand. Message if you want to buy a bottle. It also doubles as a hand sanitiser.

Size Guide

The measurements listed on each item are the actual garment measurements — not a modern clothing size label, and not your body measurements. Vintage sizing varies enormously by era, maker, and cut, so a labelled '12' from the 1960s may measure very differently to a modern 12. You'll also need to allow room for movement depending on the cut and style of the piece — a relaxed 1970s blouse needs more ease than a structured 1950s jacket. The best approach is to compare the listed measurements directly against a similar garment you already own and know fits you well. This is the most reliable way to judge fit — and the step most people skip.
