Finding mod clothing that's unique and head turning is becoming thankfully easier, thanks to the influence of sixties gear on the high street along with dedicated retro retailers. It's often those simple, perennial pieces that are the hardest to come by though, making this A-Line Twill Mini Skirt from Stella McCartney all the more appealing.
The skirt's best asset is the simplicity, with a well angled A-line, high waist cut and truly 60s-mini hem length. Made from a black twill, the fabric holds the shape to provide a sharp mid-sixties style that's undeniably retro.
Get it online from Net-a-Porter for £225.
The simplicity is nice, but wouldn’t it make more sense for someone to buy something similar at a fraction of that cost that didn’t say “Stella McCartney” on the label? That’s $350 here in the US. You could buy the whole Beatles CD collection and still have plenty left for a nice plain skirt.
