Women's Navy Scuba Pencil Skirt - Knee-Length with Slit

This navy pencil skirt is cut from scuba fabric — a double-knit polyester blend that holds its shape through a full workday without creasing. The high-waisted fit skims the hips and thighs to just below the knee, with a side slit approximately 15 cm at the hem that allows a natural stride without pulling.

Office to Evening Styling

The structured navy color pairs cleanly with a white button-down or a fitted cream blouse for a polished office look. After hours, swap the top for a satin camisole and block-heeled mules to shift it into a dinner-ready outfit. The smooth scuba surface also works well under a blazer without adding bulk at the hips.

• Pair with a white crop top and black pumps for a business-casual day look
• Layer under a tailored navy blazer for a tonal monochrome set
• Wear with a tucked-in silk blouse and statement earrings for an evening event

Sizing and Fit Notes

The skirt is designed for a figure-hugging, close-to-body fit. The elasticated waist accommodates a range of hip measurements, typically fitting best on waist sizes from 62 cm to 90 cm. Women with fuller hips or thighs may find movement slightly restricted without the slit, so this skirt is best suited to those comfortable with a snug silhouette. If you are between sizes, size up for more comfort at the hips.

• High waist sits approximately 3-4 cm above the natural waistline
• Knee length falls roughly 2-3 cm below the kneecap on a 165 cm frame
• Side slit measures approximately 15 cm for ease of movement
• Slim through the thigh — not designed for a relaxed or A-line silhouette

Scuba Fabric and Care

Scuba is a double-knit polyester-elastane blend known for its smooth, slightly neoprene-like surface that resists pilling and holds a clean line. Unlike woven fabrics, it has a gentle four-way stretch that gives when you sit or walk. The fabric is not sheer. For best results, machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and hang to dry — tumble drying can cause the elastane to break down over multiple washes, reducing the fitted silhouette over time.

• Material: polyester-elastane double-knit scuba
• Wrinkle-resistant — suitable for travel and all-day wear
• Do not iron directly on the fabric surface; use a pressing cloth if needed
• Do not dry clean

Everyday Versatility

The navy color is a practical everyday alternative to black — it reads as professional in boardroom settings but avoids the starkness of jet black under bright lighting. The matte finish of the scuba knit does not catch office fluorescent light awkwardly, making it a reliable choice for meetings, commutes, and after-work occasions. One honest trade-off: the form-fitting cut means it is best worn with smooth, seamless underwear to avoid visible lines through the fabric.
