SKIRTS
A skirt changes the geometry of an outfit. It introduces movement where trousers hold still, softness where suiting stays sharp, and a different kind of confidence that comes from choosing a silhouette most women overlook. The right skirts for women do not compete with what sits above them. They complete it.
Lindsay Nicholas designs women's skirts across three distinct families: silk slit skirts that drape and move, sequined lace skirts that catch every light in the room, and the Duchess Midi in silk crepe de chine for the woman who wants print with precision.
The Skirt Collection
The Silk Slit Skirt is the foundation of the collection. A midi-length silhouette in 100% silk with a side slit that adds movement without revealing too much. Available in Black, Olive, Merlot, Red silk slit skirt, and Chocolate, she shifts from boardroom to evening depending on what you pair her with.
The Lace Skirt brings texture and presence. Sequined embroidered floral lace with a separate slip, available in Floral, Black, Gold, and Crimson Rose. These are skirt women's clothing pieces that hold their own at gallery openings and evening events.
The Duchess Midi Skirt in Plum Bird Fleur Silk stands alone. A deep purple silk crepe de chine with a delicate bird and floral motif, she is the editorial statement of the collection.
How to Style Your Skirt
The Silk Slit Skirt in Black with a Tuxedo Blouse tucked in, and a pointed-toe heel is as polished as any suit. Swap the blouse for a Bow Blouse for a different neckline, or pair the Olive with a Poet Blouse in Leopard for a print-on-print moment that feels intentional rather than accidental.
The Lace Skirts pair naturally with a simple knit or a fitted top. Let the sequined lace set the tone and keep the rest clean. The Gold with a black silk shell and a heel is an evening outfit in two pieces. For daytime, ground the Floral with a sweater and a flat shoe.
Layer an Elizabeth Jacket over any of these women's skirts for structure, or add a trench coat in cooler months. Complete the look with a piece from the Fire Horse Collection or a faux fur collar for added texture.
Three Textures, One Approach
Silk, lace, and printed silk crepe de chine. Three different fabrics, three different moods, but every skirt for women in this collection shares the same approach: considered construction, intentional detail, and a silhouette designed to work across more occasions than you planned for. The Silk Slit Skirts pack flat and resist creasing for travel. The Lace Skirts come with a separate slip for a smooth foundation. The Duchess Midi carries the same French seam finishing you will find across Lindsay Nicholas New York's dresses and tops.
These are not trend pieces with a single season in them. They are skirts women build around for years.
