"Aquascutum" 10's Burgundy wool silk plaid skirt

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

Since its founding in 1851, Aquascutum has carried on the refined aesthetic sensibility and functionality characteristic of Britain. Here, we present a unique piece with beautiful patterning.

Anchored in deep burgundy, the check pattern layered with black to charcoal-toned hues reflects classic elegance, offering both understated calm that naturally harmonizes with everyday wear and a distinct sense of presence.

The outer fabric is a blend of 73% wool and 27% silk. The rich texture inherent to wool is complemented by silk’s restrained sheen, creating depth in the woven check texture. Together with the red tones muted for vibrancy, the skirt’s expression is both glamorous and tastefully restrained.

The waist area is neatly shaped, while the tucks provide a moderate amount of ease around the hips. With a semi-A-line silhouette that gently widens toward the hem, even when you tuck in a top, you can maintain a crisp outline while enjoying the fabric’s soft character as it moves.

For closure, it uses a minimal side zipper. Inside, the skirt is fully lined with a 100% cupro Bemberg lining, chosen for its smooth feel. In addition to easy wearability, the carefully considered construction that supports a beautiful silhouette reflects the reliable craftsmanship typical of made in Japan.

The contact information for Renown listed in the quality display section aligns with specifications from 2013 onward, and the care label shows older JIS-style notation used prior to the December 2016 revision. As such, it is understood to be an item offered for the Japanese market in the mid-2010s, carrying value unique to the period when it was handled by Renown—an expression of British brand tradition through delicate domestic tailoring techniques.

The size is marked as 13. While we recommend checking the actual measurements for an exact fit, the check pattern, which is less influenced by trends, along with its well-proportioned silhouette, makes it especially suitable for those who want to incorporate quality materials into everyday life without hesitation, or for those who wish to add gentle color to a classic wardrobe.

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

Please enjoy this skirt, where quiet sophistication is present in every aspect—materials, tailoring, and color.
