Ryland Skort

This skirt relies on a stiff, mid-weight taffeta that holds its architectural bubble hem away from the body, creating a deliberate puffed volume. It functions as a skort, with internal shorts and a faux-drawstring waistband that lean into a sporty, 90s-inflected minimalism. It’s a high-contrast piece: the shape is playful and rounded, but the matte black finish keeps the silhouette grounded.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: The garment is constructed entirely from polyester, a petroleum-based synthetic fiber known for low breathability and poor moisture management. The reliance on synthetic lining and a dry-clean-only maintenance requirement further increases the chemical burden and potential for skin irritation.
