Description
Four panels, all cut on the bias, joined so the seams spiral very slightly around the leg. That is what produces the flare below the knee without any additional fabric — the fabric does it, not the pattern.
Rust is a warm burnt orange that works against camel, cream, navy and, unexpectedly, against forest green. It is the colour we photograph most often because it reads well on every skin tone we have shot it on.

Flat measurements
Taken with the garment laid flat, in centimetres. Bust, waist and hip are half measurements — double them to compare against your own body measurement. If you are between two sizes, the fit note above tells you which way we would go.
| Measurement (cm) | AU 6 | AU 8 | AU 10 | AU 12 | AU 14 | AU 16 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Waist | 65 | 70 | 75 | 80 | 85 | 90 |
| Hip | 93 | 98 | 103 | 108 | 113 | 118 |

Care
Hand wash cold or gentle machine wash in a bag. Dry flat. Bias hems settle unevenly for a day after washing and then hang true.

Colour is exactly as shown. Mine needed a day to settle at the hem after the first wash, which the care notes did warn about.

The way it moves is the reason to buy it. Photos do not do it justice.
