Signature Design Elements

• Dual Lace-Up Side Slits: Metal eyelets and adjustable drawstring ties create customizable leg exposure, allowing you to control your reveal. The intricate lacing detail serves as both functional design and visual spectacle.
• Snake Pattern Synthetic Leather: Premium textured material delivers an authentic leather aesthetic with superior durability. The reptilian texture adds a primal, otherworldly dimension to your gothic narrative.
• High-Waisted Fishtail Hem: The graceful fishtail cut at the hem creates an elegant silhouette that elongates the legs while maintaining the dramatic gothic drape. Perfect for dramatic movement and commanding presence.
• Functional Back Pockets: Authentic, wearable details ensure this isn’t merely theatrical—it’s practical for everyday gothic living.
• Slim-Fit Tailoring: Contoured to celebrate the feminine form without restriction, this skirt hugs your curves in all the right ways.

Material Composition & Craftsmanship

Constructed from 100% synthetic leather, this skirt offers the luxurious appearance and texture of genuine leather with enhanced flexibility and ease of care. The snake skin embossing isn’t merely decorative—it’s a nod to gothic symbolism, where serpents represent transformation, mystery, and primal power. The thin yet durable fabric provides comfortable wear throughout extended periods, while the good elasticity ensures the skirt moves with your body, never against it.

Weight: 0.43kg / 0.94lbs—lightweight enough for all-day wear, substantial enough to drape with presence.
