Altes Skirt in Merlot by ELK the Label
The skirt that brings structure and softness into balance
The Altes Skirt is crafted from a dense cut-cord velvet, offering a structured feel with a soft surface and subtle lustre. The fabric holds its shape through the body while allowing just enough movement for everyday wear.
The A-line silhouette is designed to sit neatly at the waist and fall away through the hem, creating a clean, controlled line. Back darts refine the fit without adding bulk, while the front fly with button tab closure keeps the finish tailored. Angled side pockets are integrated into the design, adding practicality without interrupting the silhouette. In merlot, the tone introduces depth and warmth, making it an easy anchor for cooler-season dressing.
