Och Bella Cotton Tracksuit Skirt with Drawstring and Striped Hem

A skirt that feels like your joggers

On a warm day you want something as comfortable as your tracksuit but a bit more put together. This Och Bella skirt is soft cotton with a little stretch, a high elastic waist you tie with a drawstring, pockets for your phone and keys, and a striped hem band that gives it a sporty finish.

At a glance

The piece: a tracksuit skirt by Och Bella

The supplier calls it a tracksuit skirt: high waist, elastic band with binding, pockets and a welted bottom, made for summer. In the photos the welt is a hem band with two white stripes, and the drawstring at the front has small metal tips.

It comes in black and green. A beige version appears in the gallery, but the maker no longer supplies it.

Who it's for

For you if you like sporty clothes but want to wear a skirt in summer. It suits weekends, school runs and errands, anywhere you'd normally wear joggers. Right now the supplier has it in size S only, which fits a waist of 72 to 80 cm.

• High elastic waist with a drawstring (maker's data and photos)
• Pockets at the front (maker's data and photos)
• Hem band with two white stripes (photos)

Fabric and feel: soft cotton with a bit of give

The maker lists 95% cotton and 5% spandex. That is a soft, breathable mix that keeps its shape, and the small share of spandex lets the skirt move with you when you sit or walk. The fabric looks like a smooth sweat-style jersey in the photos.

Fit and sizing

The maker's table goes by waist width: S 72 to 80 cm, M 78 to 86 cm and L 84 to 90 cm. The supplier only has size S in stock at the moment, in both colours. The drawstring lets you pull the waist a little tighter. No length is given; on the model it ends just above the knee.

Styling: keep it sporty

The photos show the easy version: black with a white crop top and white trainers, green with a matching green tee and flat sliders.

Occasions

Summer weekends, city walks, festivals during the day, travel days and running errands.

Care: follow the label

The maker's data has no care instructions, so check the label sewn into the skirt. As a general habit with cotton and spandex: wash at a low temperature with similar colours and let it dry on a line rather than in the dryer.

The wow detail: the striped hem band

The two white stripes at the hem are what turn a plain cotton skirt into a sporty one. You can see how it looks on you first: try it on your own avatar in our Magic Mirror, and ask Lucy, our AI stylist, for a top and shoes to go with it.
