The Concept: Effortless Architectural Tailoring A definitive wardrobe essential. This classic knee-length pencil skirt is engineered from the finest Italian, chrome-tanned lambskin for a silhouette that is as sharp as it is supple. Designed to transition seamlessly from professional environments to evening events, it offers a second-skin fit with daylong comfort.
The Engineering:
- Precision Cut: Tailored to map the transition from waist to hip with absolute clarity.
- Refined Hardware: Features an invisible back zip and a reinforced dark press-stud closure at the waist. We have specifically engineered this with press-studs to ensure a secure, fail-safe fastening that outlasts traditional hooks and eyes.
- Movement: A classic 6-inch (15cm) rear vent ensures ease of movement while maintaining the crisp pencil silhouette.
- Standard Length: 23 inches (59cm). Should you require a custom length, add additional inches here.

Plain Black Leather Orders (Standard Sizes Only)
Every single piece we make is handcrafted to order—we do not hold a warehouse of pre-made stock. However, if your plain black, standard-sized item doesn't fit, we will happily accommodate a size swap.
- The Remake: We will hand-make you a replacement size entirely free of charge, or issue a full studio credit note if you prefer.
- Keep It Straightforward: The free remake applies strictly to a straight size swap (e.g., swapping a standard Medium for a standard Large). You cannot add custom measurements, design alterations, or "Special Instructions" to a remake. Any alteration to the pattern itself automatically classifies the piece as personalized.
- Postage: You are responsible for the postage costs to return the original item to our studio, as well as the shipping fees for the new remake.
Coloured, White, & Personalised Items (Strictly Final Sale)
- No Returns or Remakes: All white, coloured, or black perforated leather underwear items are strictly Final Sale.
- Personalised Orders: If you filled out the Special Instructions box at checkout or emailed us custom sizing/design requests on your original order, your item is classified as personalized and is completely ineligible for a return or remake.
Strict Hygiene Regulations for Intimate Wear
Due to the intimate nature of these garments, we enforce a zero-tolerance hygiene policy to protect our workshop:
- Fit Checks: You must wear clean undergarments underneath the piece when trying it on for size.
- Condition: To qualify for a plain black remake, the returned item must be completely unworn, unwashed, undamaged, and entirely free of bodily fluids, stains, marks, cosmetic marks, perfumes, or odours.
- Refusal Rights: If an item arrives at our studio failing any of these standards, the remake will be cancelled, no credit will be issued, and the item will be sent back to you at your expense.
International Returns (Outside the UK)
You are fully responsible for all return shipping and outward postage costs. The package must be clearly labeled: "UK RETURN — GOODS RETURNING TO MANUFACTURER" with a declared commercial value of exactly £5. Incorrectly labeled packages will be rejected at the UK border and returned to you by the courier.
