Gérard Darel women's skirts

Gérard Darel follows French sizes and runs fitted, with a close-to-the-body construction on jackets. On a pre-owned skirt, the waistband and the fastening concentrate the wear, and the seat is the area where the fabric goes shiny first. Check the state of the lining, which gives way before the outer fabric, and on a pleated skirt see whether the pleats still hold: a pleat that has dropped after a bad wash will not go back into place.
