Burberry's Translucent Vinyl Pencil Skirt - £795
Vinyl Pencil Skirt - Topshop £38
I've always been a fan of a good pencil skirt. So after seeing Burberry’s A/W collection I was very pleased to see pencil skirts featuring as a key piece this season. From vinyl to lace, Christopher Bailey used a mixture of gentle textures to create the lavish collection. (It was exciting to hear that the lace featured in the designs was made using original Victorian machines in a Nottingham factory.) A favourite of mine, as I’m sure a favourite of many after seeing it in practically every magazine over the past few weeks, is the Translucent Vinyl Pencil Skirt. Worn by model of the moment Cara Delevingne it could only have ever been a success. With a detachable silk lining, the skirt is available in 'camel' and 'oxblood', both colours being central to the A/W collection. Perhaps a little more affordable take on this trend, Topshop have created a storm with their vinyl pencil skirts this season. With the pink already sold out, and seen on many celebrities, they are proving extremely popular. Not quite the same feel as Burberry’s romantic take on vinyl but for now, it will have to do!
