Mustard Corduroy Skirt

Mustard Corduroy Skirt — A-Line Mini in Turmeric

Size Chart

Order by your waist measurement — the skirt fastens rather than stretching, so the waistband is the fixed point, and the UK equivalents above are converted from the actual measurements rather than the letter sizes. The hip figure includes the ease of the A-line cut, so it will read larger than your own hips and that's intended. Length is measured down the side seam. Between two sizes, take the larger one.

Turmeric yellow in fine-wale corduroy, which is a warmer and far more wearable version of mustard than a flat cotton would give. The waistband sits high with belt loops all the way round, welt pockets are set into the hip seams, and the skirt runs in a clean A-line to mid-thigh with a single seam down the centre front. The nap catches light so the colour deepens where the fabric folds.

How to Style a Corduroy Mini Skirt

Mustard is at its best against brown and cream rather than black, so a chocolate knit, an oversized shirt in oatmeal, or a fine cream roll-neck tucked in. Opaque tights in brown or black with loafers or ankle boots, and a flash of red in the socks if you want the colour to sing. The A-line skims the stomach and hip instead of tracing them, which makes it easy across apple, pear and hourglass figures, while the high waistband marks the narrowest point and the flare takes over from there.

FAQ

How short is this corduroy mini skirt?
It measures 15.0 inches on the smallest size up to 15.4 inches on the largest, taken down the side seam. That sits mid-thigh on an average 5'6" frame, and the length barely changes between sizes so height matters more than the size you take.

Does the corduroy hold its shape?
Fine-wale cord has more structure than a jersey or a light cotton, so the A-line stays crisp through a full day rather than dropping soft. The nap does mark if it's crushed, so hang it rather than folding it.

Which size should I order?
Use your waist measurement and ignore the hip column, which includes the ease of the flare. Note that this style runs to smaller proportions than the letter sizes suggest — a size S corresponds to a UK 10 — so take the larger row if you're between two.
