Description

Ilana is a partially fitted, subtly flared skirt with a straight silhouette, fully lined, showcasing front and back darts, and a horizontal design line below the hip. The front boasts top slash pockets and a distinctive A-shaped slit at the bottom. It fastens with an off-centre fly front zipper, while the waistband secures with snaps. Ilana gracefully falls to a midi length.
