1980s Vintage Dona Jean Embroidered Midi Skirt Size S

A wearable work of art. This vintage Dona Jean midi skirt features intricate multicolor embroidery worked across a rich muted rose ground, with stylized elephants, florals, birds, and abstract motifs creating an almost tapestry-like surface.

The elongated straight silhouette keeps all that embellishment surprisingly sophisticated, while the contrasting embroidered border at the hem gives the piece a beautifully finished, collected feel. Side slits add movement and reveal the lining beneath.

This is the kind of vintage piece that doesn't need much styling—pair it with a simple silk blouse, fitted knit, or crisp white shirt and let the textile work speak for itself.

Curator's Note:

The textile is the story here. The density and variation of the embroidery give this skirt the presence of a handcrafted art textile while the clean column silhouette keeps it distinctly wearable.
