"Aquascutum" 10's Burgundy wool silk plaid skirt

"Aquascutum"
2010s Deep burgundy silk-blend plaid skirt

Since its founding in 1851, Aquascutum has continued to carry forward the poised aesthetic sensibility and functionality associated with Britain. We are pleased to present a standout piece with beautiful patterning.

With deep Bordeaux as the foundation, the check pattern layered with hues ranging from black to charcoal captures a classic sense of elegance. This piece combines understated calm with a sure presence—effortlessly blending into everyday styling.

The outer fabric is a blended material of 73% wool and 27% silk. The rich texture characteristic of wool is subtly elevated by the discreet sheen unique to silk, creating depth in the woven check texture. Along with the red tones toned down for vividness, the skirt is finished with an elegant expression that is striking yet never overly assertive.

While the waist area is kept neatly tailored, the pleats provide a modest ease at the hips. The silhouette gently flares toward the hem, leaning toward a semi A-line. As a result, even when you tuck in a top, you can enjoy a refined outline while relishing the soft character of the fabric as it moves.

For closure, it features a minimal side zipper. Inside, a full lining is made with a 100% cupro (Bemberg) lining chosen for its smooth feel. In addition to ease of wear, the careful construction that supports a beautiful silhouette reflects the dependable craftsmanship unique to Japan.

The contact information for Renown shown on the quality label is consistent with the specifications from 2013 onward. Furthermore, the washing care label includes older JIS-style notations used before the revision in December 2016. For these reasons, this is regarded as an item developed for the Japanese market and released in the mid-2010s. It offers the unique value of the Renown handling period—expressing the tradition of an English brand through Japan’s delicate tailoring techniques.

The size is marked as 13. While we recommend checking the actual measurements for an accurate fit, the check pattern—less influenced by trends—and the polished silhouette make this especially recommended for those who want to incorporate quality materials into everyday life without hesitation, as well as for those who wish to add a calm touch of color to a classic look.

For styling, pairing it with a black high-gauge knit or a tailored shirt will enhance the depth of the pattern. If you define the silhouette with long boots or leather shoes, you can bring the look into a modern balance while preserving its elegance.

Please, take this opportunity to enjoy a skirt that holds a quiet sense of refinement in every aspect—from materials and tailoring to color.
