    DETAILS

    A crisp cotton maxi in an easy earthy tone.

    The Alisa Drawstring Skirt in Canteen by Second Female brings effortless shape and everyday ease to summer dressing. Crafted from 100% Organic Cotton, this lightweight, crisp maxi skirt has a defined waist before falling into a full, gathered silhouette that creates plenty of movement.

    The wide elasticated waistband with adjustable drawstring makes the fit easy to customise, while two visible front pockets add a practical, relaxed touch. The soft Canteen colour gives the skirt an earthy, versatile finish that works beautifully with everything from crisp white shirts to simple tanks and soft knits.
