Turkey, Gönül Paksoy, Wrap-Around Silk Skirt

Made in Turkey by Gönül Paksoy, this wrap-around skirt is crafted from old woven silk and linen fabrics, bringing together different textures and tones within a simple, considered silhouette. The reuse of existing textiles gives the piece a subtle depth and individuality, visible in the surface of the cloth.

The skirt is finished with a contrasting brocade hem that anchors the design, while bias binding runs along the edge to frame the form neatly. A button closure at the waist allows for an adjustable wrap fit, balancing ease of wear with structure.

Entirely hand-stitched and naturally dyed, the skirt reflects a slow, thoughtful making process. As a one-of-a-kind piece, it is shaped by the specific materials available and the maker’s approach to composition and craftsmanship.
