Brown Asymmetric Mini Skirt

Brown Asymmetric Skirt — Mini with Draped Knit Ruffle

Size Chart

Both figures are taken relaxed and unstretched, which is why they read smaller than the UK sizes they correspond to — the jersey stretches beyond them. Order by your hip measurement, since the skirt sits close through the hip. 

Two textures fighting each other in the best way. The body of the skirt is soft brown jersey, cut short and close, with a knotted cord looped across one hip like something tied on as an afterthought. From beneath it, a loose open-knit ruffle spirals out on a diagonal and hangs in long uneven tails that swing down past the knee — so the skirt is a mini and something much longer at the same time.

How to Style an Asymmetric Skirt

The hem is doing something genuinely strange, so nothing above the waist should compete — a fitted brown or cream long-sleeve, a plain vest, a ribbed crop. Slouchy knee-high boots are the natural partner because the trailing knit falls over them and the two textures read as one idea; chunky platforms work equally well. Because the jersey sits low and close through the hip, this traces the body rather than skimming it, which flatters hourglass and pear shapes and defines straighter frames — while the diagonal sweep of the ruffle breaks the line and adds movement wherever it lands. The skirt underneath is short, so tights or shorts are worth planning for.

FAQ

How short is the actual skirt?
The solid section measures 14.6 inches on UK 8 up to 15.4 inches on UK 12/14, which is a genuine mini sitting high on the thigh. The knit ruffle hangs much lower but it's open and loose, so it drapes and moves rather than providing coverage.

Is the knit ruffle see-through?
Yes — it's a loosely worked open knit, so you can see through it clearly. That's the intended effect, since it's a trailing decorative layer rather than part of the skirt's coverage, and the jersey underneath does the actual work.

Which size should I order?
Go by your hip measurement, taken where the low waistband sits rather than at your natural waist, and don't be put off by the figures looking small — they're measured unstretched. Size up rather than down between two rows.
