Women's Silk Skirts with Slit
There is a reason a silk skirt with slit catches the eye differently from any other hemline. It moves. It reveals just enough. And when the fabric is 100% silk satin, it catches light in a way that shifts with every step. This is not a skirt that stands still. It walks with you and draws the room in while doing it.
Lindsay Nicholas designed the silk slit skirt as the fluid counterpart to her suits for women. Where tailoring holds its line, silk releases it. Five colourways in 100% silk satin with an elastic waistband and a side slit that adds drama without compromising ease. A long silk skirt with a slit that slips on in seconds and carries a presence all day.
The Silk Skirt with Slit Collection
The Silk Slit Skirt in Black is the one that crosses every boundary. Silk satin in a shade that works from the office to evening without changing a thing. The Silk Slit Skirt in Olive brings a warm, grounded tone that pairs naturally with black, cream, and rich jewel tones.
The Silk Slit Skirt in Merlot carries the depth of a deep wine, moody and sophisticated. The Silk Slit Skirt in Red is the bold choice, confident colour in a fabric that softens the impact just enough. And the Silk Slit Skirt in Chocolate rounds out the collection with a rich neutral that sits between warm and grounded.
How to Style Your Silk Slit Skirt
The Black with a Tuxedo Blouse for women tucked in, and a pointed-toe heel is polished enough for any professional setting. Swap the blouse for a Poet Blouse for women in Leopard, and the same slit skirt carries a completely different energy.
The Olive pairs with a Bow Blouse for a look that mixes texture and tone. The Merlot with a simple black knit and a heel is an evening outfit in two pieces. Layer a Wellesley Sweater over the Red for a weekend look that grounds the colour with warmth.
In cooler months, add a Women's trench coat or an Elizabeth Jacket over any of these long skirts with slit options. Complete the look with a piece from the Fire Horse Collection or a scarves for women for added texture.
Why 100% Silk Satin Slit Skirts
Most slit skirts on the market use polyester satin that clings with static and loses its lustre after a few wears. Lindsay chose 100% silk satin skirts because it drapes without clinging, breathes against the skin, and holds its sheen wash after wash.
These are not imitation silk skirts. They are the real thing, and the hand feel confirms it the moment you put one on.
Every piece of our silk skirts with slit is constructed in workshops that meet strict ethical compliance standards.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do you style a silk slit skirt?
Tuck in a blouse and add a heel for the office. Layer a knit over the top for daytime. Pair with a jacket and a pointed-toe flat for a polished weekend look. The slit does the rest.
2. What tops go best with a silk satin skirt?
A tucked-in silk blouse, a fitted knit, or a structured piece like the Tuxedo Blouse or Bow Blouse. Keep the top streamlined and let the silk slit skirt carry the movement.
3. Can you wear a silk skirt casually?
Yes. With a flat sandal and a relaxed top in summer, or with a sweater and ankle boots in cooler months. The elastic waistband and silk drape make it as comfortable as it is polished.
4. Are silk slit skirts suitable for daytime wear?
Absolutely. The Black, Olive, and Chocolate read as grounded neutrals in daylight. Pair with a casual top and a flat for a daytime look that still carries presence.
5. How do you wear a silk skirt in winter?
Layer a sweater over the top and add boots and a trench coat. The long silk skirt with a slit sits beautifully under outerwear, and the silk holds its drape even with heavier layers above.
6. What shoes look best with a silk maxi skirt?
Pointed-toe heels, strappy sandals, and ankle boots all work well. For a clean line, match the shoe colour to the skirt or keep it neutral. A mid-heel elongates the silhouette beautifully.
