Today I decide how much to reveal.

The leather pencil skirt is a study in restraint and its opposite. Inspired by the glamour of the 1950s and named for Rita Hayworth, our RITA skirt sculpts the silhouette in supple plongé lambskin — with a full-length zip that lets you write your own story.

By day. Zip it low. Pair it with a fine funnel-neck knit and a flat, and the skirt turns quietly powerful — boardroom, gallery, long lunch. The leather reads as confidence, not costume.

By night. Zip it high, or don't. Add a heel and a bare shoulder, and the same skirt becomes unmistakably yours after dark. Nothing changes but your intent.

That's the pleasure of a great leather skirt: it isn't one thing. It flatters where you want to be flattered, holds its shape year after year, and adapts to the woman wearing it. Handcrafted in Italy, it's built to outlast the trend that introduced you to it.
