This is a vintage 1980s Yorke & Cole Paris skirt.  Bridget Yorke, French but born in South Africa in 1959 and Julie Cole (b.1960) of Pennsylvania were former models who founded their fashion studio in 1984 - they closed doors in 1990.  This 1980s Yorke & Cole Paris skirt overlaps at the back and is wrapped around the waist with a tie that fastens with a belt buckle at the side.  It has a wide waist band and the skirt is gathered in tucks below the band.  There is a jetted pocket at either front side with a covered button next to either pocket.  This 1980s Yorke & Cole Paris skirt has two loops below the centre front of the waist band - I’m unsure of how these would be used - maybe for a scarf.

Label: Yorke & Cole Paris with the likeness of Agnés Sorel, mistress of King Charles VII of France.

Fabric label: 54% polyester / 44% viscose / 2% polyamide

Sizing: French size T2 is indicated, which probably indicates a medium size. Please rely on the following measurements for fit, taking the style of this 1980s Yorke & Cole Paris skirt into account:

Waist:  adjustable with the belt from 26” to 32” around

Hips:  Full - 42” around, meant to fall loosely

Overall length: 24", measured flat

Condition: This 1980s Yorke & Cole Paris skirt is in excellent condition with no wear, tear, stains or odour..  It looks to have seen very little use and was well stored over the years.

Yorke & Cole fashion is very collectible now - not easy to find as production was never more than 10,000 pieces per season at their height during the late 80s….this 1980s Yorke & Cole Paris skirt makes a nice addition to a fashion collection!
