DESIGN CONCEPT Modern Edwardian Split Riding Skirt — Sasa Kovacevic Edition Mood: Rustic, conceptual, artisanal, slightly asymmetrical, functional yet artistic. Target wearer: Someone who loves vintage charm but appreciates modern silhouette and craft-forward construction. 1. SILHOUETTE & STRUCTURE Retains split skirt illusion, but with asymmetrical panel lengths. Outer skirt panels: slightly longer at one side, creating movement and layered effect. Inner pant panels: slightly tapered, relaxed but tailored at calf. Waist: mid-to-high rise with minimal shaping, but asymmetric closure overlap (one side overlaps 2–3 cm). Hem: ankle-length, slightly angled front-to-back for visual intrigue. 2. PANEL & CONSTRUCTION LOGIC Outer panels: 2–3 large rectangles for main skirt effect, with visible raw edges or topstitched reinforcements. Inner leg panels: narrower, slightly angled for ergonomic movement. Split: front-left dominant (asymmetry signature), reinforced with subtle facing. Seam lines: exaggerated topstitching on certain panel joins to add texture and depth — a Kovacevic hallmark. 3. FABRIC & TEXTURE Main: mid-weight linen-cotton blend, slightly irregular weave. Color palette: earthy neutrals — chestnut brown, graphite gray, muted olive. Optional fabric layering: one panel lined with contrasting natural linen (visible at split edge). Subtle tactile details, e.g., hand-whipped seams, small raw-edge accents. Sustainability focus: hand-dyed, naturally finished. 4. WAIST & CLOSURE Wide waistband (5–6 cm), asymmetrically overlapping. Closure: combination of hidden button + fabric tie or minimal hook. Optional interior elastic for ease. Minimal embroidery or motifs: small tonal running stitch along waistband or pocket edge — Kovacevic favors subtle heritage references, not decorative overload. 5. POCKETS & FUNCTIONALITY Deep side-seam pockets with irregular angular openings, blending with panel asymmetry. Optional small patch pocket on inner panel, raw-edge detail. Hidden utility pockets possible inside waistband. 6. HEM & FINISHING Ankle-length, slightly angled hem (shorter front, longer back). Raw edge or narrow stitched hem — emphasize hand-made feel. Panel edges: optional topstitch reinforcement or whipstitch. 7. MODERNIZATION & WEARABILITY Relaxed fit for layering over leggings or under long coats. Functional split height allows walking, riding, or casual movement. Gender-neutral sizing. Compatible with boots or vintage-inspired shoes. 8.
