Edwardian Walking Skirt, SYLVIA SKIRT, Long Linen Skirt, popular Edwardian Costume

Our Sylvia Edwardian Walking Skirt is an elegant long, linen skirt perfect for Edwardian costume or a modern vintage style skirt.

An elegant and feminine skirt which sweeps to the ground, it is typical of the Edwardian walking skirt styles worn from 1890 to 1908 in the era known as the Belle Epoque or the Gilded Age. Perfect for historical re-enactment, theatre, steampunk or just every day.

Made from a lovely quality 100% linen, the skirt features gored panels that skim the hips then flares out with pleating in the back for extra fullness with a sweeper train. The back is approx 3"/7.5cm longer than the front. The waistband fastens with a button and hooks and eyes, and there's an extra button for a little flexibility. The skirt is trimmed with a double narrow velvet ribbon band in your chosen accent colour.

The model is wearing beige with silver trim.

*To Order*
The linen fabric comes in a broad range of lovely colours. Simply choose from the drop down menu and select your ribbon trim colour. Then enter your waist, hip and waist to floor in shoes measurements in to the notes box. We add a smidge of ease to the waist and take an inch off the length to allow the skirt to skim over your toes, but the skirt can comfortably be worn between floor and ankle length if you like to vary your shoes.


The linen is washableat 40c and I professionally serge the seams and stiffen the hem with a light crin braid. The skirt is unlined to help keep weight down and to allow it to be worn as a swishy summer popular skirt. We recommend adding a petticoat for period fullness.

The skirt is handmade to order at our Lincolnshire, UK studio and can take around eight weeks plus shipping. Please check the delivery tab for up to date info.
