Sarah Striped Linen Skirt

Alex Mill calls this THE everyday summer skirt, and the proportions make the case: 100% linen in a full, swirling silhouette with a 79" sweep that moves beautifully in warm-weather air.

The ocean and ivory stripe is crisp and graphic, grounded by thoughtful construction details -- encased elastic at the back of the waist, an invisible zipper, and pockets -- that make it as easy to live in as it looks.

ABOUT ALEX MILL

Alex Mill started in 2012 as a simple shirt shop in a former bakery on Elizabeth Street in Soho -- co-founder Alex Drexler just wanted to make the perfect shirt and built a loyal following from there.

In 2019 the brand expanded when Somsack Sikhounmuong, former Creative Director of J.Crew and Madewell, joined as co-founder and design director, bringing a shared conviction that getting dressed should be easier and better: not more clothes, but the right clothes.

The New York-based brand is known for its meticulous attention to detail, vintage and archival references, and a commitment to small-batch production and thoughtful use of materials.
