A crushed rayon velvet skirt in a floral print by Bila of California. A lush, painterly garden of oversized roses, peonies, pansies, hydrangea and golden blooms in rose, emerald, violet and marigold sits against a deep black ground, so the color glows against the soft pile. A fitted print yoke at the hip drops into a gathered, tiered skirt with plenty of sweep, and a row of black buttons along the side waist gives it a charming, slightly romantic touch. Wear it with a fitted black knit and boots for a moody-romantic winter look, or with a crisp white shirt to let the florals lead.
