What the stretch panel is doing
Leather has essentially no elasticity. A body-con skirt in pure leather therefore has to be measured exactly, restricts movement, and puts all the strain of sitting and walking on its seams. A stretch panel — usually a knitted or elastane section set into the back or the side seams — gives the garment two or three inches of give exactly where the body needs it. The result is a skirt that fits close, moves with you, and does not need a vent, because the panel does what a vent would do.
Why that also improves the fit range
Because the panel flexes, one size covers a wider range of bodies than a rigid leather skirt would. It also means the skirt continues to fit through the small changes in measurement that everyone has across a month or a year — something a fixed leather waistband cannot do.
Caring for a mixed-material garment
Two materials, two rules. The leather takes a dry cloth and a clear conditioner once a year. The stretch panel must be kept away from heat: no tumble drying, no ironing, no drying near a radiator, all of which degrade elastane permanently. That is the only real difference from an all-leather skirt, and it is worth knowing because heat damage to a stretch panel cannot be repaired.
Brown leather
Warmer and more versatile than black, pairing with cream, camel, olive, grey and denim. It fades in strong sunlight toward a dull grey-tan, so store the skirt away from windows.
Sizing and made to order
The stretch panel gives range, so most people take their normal waist size. Send waist, hip and the length you want with the Custom option for an exact fit. Sizes run XS to 5XL plus Custom.
