Notes

Description

Handwriting on design states: “Turnabout” – “I can wear my double skirt on either side – and I have it in all sorts of colors – low key & high key. It has a nice silky bulky blousy look tucked into a cinched waist – or it serves as a jacket worn over sheath or slacks. Sometimes it’s fun to cross & pin the ends in back for a little middle look. It could be called a chameleon – it has that many moods—“
