Lace has a reputation for being delicate. These lace skirts are not. Sequined, embroidered, and cut in a midi-length silhouette that catches light with every step, they carry the kind of texture and weight that makes a room pay attention. A womens lace skirt like this does not sit quietly in the background; it leads.
Lindsay Nicholas designed the Lace Skirt collection as the editorial counterpoint to her suiting. Where tailoring holds structure, lace brings movement. Where wool grounds, sequins shimmer. Four colourways, each with a separate slip included, and the kind of hand-finished detail that separates a lace skirt women keep from one they forget.
The Lace Skirt Collection
The Lace Skirt in Floral is the starting point. An intricate embroidered lace overlay with sequin detailing that reads differently in every light. The Lace Skirt in Crimson Rose brings a deep, rich warmth, bold enough to anchor an entire outfit without needing anything else to compete.
The Lace Skirt in Gold is the celebration piece. Sequined embroidery in warm metallic tones that pairs as naturally with black as it does with cream. And the Lace Skirt in Black is the one that holds its place anywhere, a long lace skirt with a sequined overlay and a nude slip beneath for a seamless, grounded finish.
How to Style Your Lace Skirt
For the evening, let the lace skirt do the talking. A simple black top tucked in, a pointed-toe heel, and a piece from the jewellery collection. The Gold pairs beautifully with a Tuxedo Blouse in Snow for a look that balances shimmer with structure.
For daytime, ground the lace with a sweater layered over the top and a flat shoe. The Black reads as neutral when worn this way, and the Floral softens into something more relaxed. In cooler months, add a coat or a faux fur collar for texture and warmth. Complete the look with a scarf or pair with a Poet Blouse in Black for an outfit that carries personality from office to gallery opening.
What Sets These Lace Skirts Apart
The sequined embroidery on each lace skirt is what gives the fabric its depth. It is not a flat lace print or a simple overlay. The texture shifts with movement, catching and releasing light in a way that feels alive rather than static. The separate slip sits smoothly beneath, so the lace never clings or pulls. The midi-length silhouette balances coverage and proportion, working across body types and shoe heights.
Every piece is constructed in workshops that meet strict ethical compliance standards. These are lace skirts built with the same intention as every Lindsay Nicholas New York collection.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are women's lace skirts suitable for everyday wear?
Yes. Paired with a sweater and flats, a lace skirt works for daytime. The Black and Floral both read as grounded neutrals when styled down with relaxed layers.
Can lace skirts be worn to events?
Absolutely. The Gold and Crimson Rose are natural choices for evening events, gallery openings, and occasions that call for texture and presence without a full gown.
Do lace skirts stretch?
The lace overlay has minimal stretch. The separate slip provides a smooth, comfortable foundation underneath. Check the size guide on each product page for specific fit details.
What tops work best with lace skirts?
A tucked-in silk blouse, a fitted knit, or a structured top like the Tuxedo Blouse all work well. Keep the top streamlined and let the lace short skirt or long lace skirt set the tone.
