Checker Maxi
In a collection where inspiration was drawn from insects and a mysterious Lizzy, a recurring theme is endless ruching and extra-long ties for wrapping and dangling. Alternating flat and ruched panels define this bell-shaped maxi skirt. The warp and weft side of the denim has been employed to create an aught-inspired maxi skirt with graphic color blocking that mimics pants. Three adjustable side ties secure the skirt for a variety of styling and sizing options.

We have used reconstruction techniques in our collection since 2011. For the JRAT collection, artist and designer, Janelle Abbott reimagined 50 pairs of acid-green, organic cotton Glove Leggings that were unwearable due to a cutting error (wrong textile!) to create a full range of zero-waste garments and accessories.
