Get ready to twirl in Lucine, a sophisticated and fitted ribbed skirt. Worked in the round from the top down, Lucine features a plain yoke for a smooth fit at the waist, and a fluted rib body that creates a flattering A-line shape. Elastic is added to the waistline to ensure a good fit that will last through repeated wear. Lucine is worn at the low waist, so choose a size that best matches your waist circumference about 1” below the belly button. Length is easily customized.
