Deconstructed "Dual-Tone" Denim Maxi Skirt – One of a Kind

An architectural exploration of reclaimed denim. This one-of-a-kind maxi skirt is a masterclass in hybrid construction, merging various shades and eras of denim into a singular, avant-garde silhouette.
The design features a high-waisted fit with a dramatic front slit, revealing raw, frayed edges that highlight its handcrafted origin. A bold, vertical panel of dark charcoal denim is integrated into the back, creating a powerful visual contrast against the classic light-wash base. Distinguishing details include:
• Asymmetrical Patchwork: Artisanal patches with intricate embroidery details scattered across the front and sides.
• Raw Construction: Exposed seams and a double-waistband effect that pays homage to deconstructed tailoring.
• Y2K Influence: Retaining original pocket embroidery and hardware to blend vintage character with modern subversion.
Handmade in Leipzig.
