It’s full, calf length, bright blue printed with a drawn image of a woman’s head and shoulders all over it. The woman is wearing a turban which appears in various colours throughout the print. Wish I’d asked the woman wearing it where she bought it!

Is the woman Frida Kahlo?

@cheeseisnice

Is the woman Frida Kahlo?
Lol snap!

@cheeseisnice no, not Frida. I think it’s a generic woman but I think her skin colour might change across the print. So brown skinned with green turban in some of the images, white with red turban in others, for example, repeated all over the print. The image is a basic drawing rather than a portrait, if you know what I mean

Definitely a scarf/turban rather than Frida’s style of head dress

The woman who was wearing it is an author/playwright and that makes me think it’s from somewhere very quirky, or maybe she had it made

If she's an author, can you find her on SM and message her?

Goingplacestogether · 23/06/2021 10:49

Very good point @Hopeislost! I can, plus I know her brother so I could ask him to ask! I’m betting she had it made. I commented on it to another friend of mine and she confirmed she’s seen said author in a range of amazing skirts!

Sounded like Kemi Telford but can't see anything in her current collection like it. La Double J and Wolf & Badger also have some interesting skirts but nothing quite fits that description. Can you share an image?

Goingplacestogether · 23/06/2021 13:05

No @Defiantly41! I should have taken a surreptitious snap of the fabric but was too busy admiring it! I probably wouldn’t buy it even if I found it as if I was this woman, I’d be peeved if another woman walked into the same pub wearing such a unique item Smile

Will look at the websites you mention though for alternatives, cheers!

I was also thinking it sounded like Kemi Telford. I haven't seen that particular one, but her skirts are stunning.

Just looked at the Kemi Telford site and the skirt I saw is absolutely that vibe. How beautiful
