1970s Cotton Patchwork Skirt with Deep Flounce

This 1970s a-line maxi skirt is constructed from a thick cotton patchwork of larger multicoloured patchwork panels. These are composed of delicate floral designs in varying shades of green, purple, navy and earth-coloured tones. as the fabric is the same type, my guess is that the skirt material may have been high quality fabric samples originally. The skirt fastens at the side with the original metal zip, concealed by a waistband tie which flows down almost to the hem. This could also be wrapped around the waistband for a different look. The flounced hem is made up of a wide, two-tiered panel to add volume and movement and overall, the skirt has a lovely weight to it. It is without labels but is a substantial and well-made piece. In fabulous vintage condition, gently worn, with no issues and would best suit up to a size 10 or US 6.
