Straight out of a sunlit studio apartment filled with stacks of poetry books and the scent of turpentine, this vintage swing skirt is giving full-on 70s art teacher energy… in the best way. Designed by Skirtwear by Ernest Donath (a lesser-known but quietly iconic label), it’s a study in pattern and palette: rich vertical stripes in ink, ochre, cream, and slate, each line like a brushstroke in motion.
The cotton is crisp yet soft, the silhouette full and swishy, with just enough structure to hold its own in a gallery or on a grocery run. It’s the kind of piece that makes you feel like the most interesting person in the room without saying a word.
