Elsy Maxi Skirt

This midweight knit skirt falls in a straight, column-like line, relying on the fluid drape of viscose to graze the hips without clinging. The dark brown hue offers a grounded, earthy alternative to black, while the unlined, pull-on construction keeps the silhouette lean and unencumbered. It functions as a foundational piece for late-summer layering, leaning into the relaxed, minimalist aesthetic of the California coast.

Safety Rating: Poor: Chemically Processed Semi-Synthetics

Analysis: Viscose is a regenerated cellulosic fiber that requires intensive chemical processing, often utilizing carbon disulfide, which presents significant environmental and occupational toxicity risks. While the fiber is breathable, the manufacturing process leaves a high chemical burden that is less biocompatible than natural or closed-loop alternatives.
