1970s Missoni Woven Wrap Maxi Skirt

 

 

 

 

Reminiscent of colorful Mexican woven string market bags, the loosely woven nature of this wrap skirt makes it the perfect travel piece - wrap it over a swimsuit and you're ready for a poolside lunch - switch the swimsuit for an Alaia bodysuit and you're good to go for dinner at La Terraza.  A loose cotton blend weave in multi stripes of blues, greens, violets, rose, rust and melon, it has two inseam pockets at either hip. The waistband is backed in a wide burgundy grosgrain.  The width of the skirt at the waist is 32" side to side, so the waist measurement it will fit would depend on how much overlap you desire - for instance, a 28" waist would have a 4" overlap at the wrap.  The length is 39".  There are a couple of pulls in the weave, pretty inconspicuous - otherwise in excellent condition.  Also carries a Saks Fifth Avenue Potpourri boutique.  $225
