Description
A grey patterned pencil skirt that keeps the office outfit simple
Figl calls this a simple pencil skirt with a covered zip, in a fabric with an interesting pattern. The pattern is small and white on a grey ground, so from across the room it reads as soft grey and up close you see the detail.
It is 100% polyester and comes in S to XL. On the model the hem ends just above the knee.

The piece: model 77139 by Figl
Model 77139 sits in the supplier's skirt category. The colour field says multicolor, which undersells it. What you see in the photos is a mid grey with a regular pattern of small white motifs.
The cut is the classic pencil shape: straight from the hip down, close to the body, with the zip hidden in the back seam. There are no pockets in the photos and no trim.
Who it's for
For you if your working week needs a skirt you can put on without thinking, and you are a little tired of plain black. Grey with a small print goes with almost every top you already own.
The size table runs from a 92-95 cm hip in S to 103-106 cm in XL.
Closer look: what the maker's data and the photos show
- Pencil cut (maker's data)
- Covered zip (maker's data); the photos show it in the centre back seam
- Patterned fabric (maker's data): small white motifs on grey (photos)
- Hem just above the knee on the model (photos)
- No visible pockets (photos)
The maker says nothing about a lining, and gives no length. We asked ourselves whether to estimate one and decided against it.
Fabric and feel: 100% polyester
The composition is 100% polyester. There is no stretch fibre in it, so do not count on give: this skirt fits because of its cut. The maker does not describe the weave.
In the photos the fabric lies flat and smooth over the hips and keeps a clean vertical line.
Fit and silhouette: measure your hips
Because the fabric has no stretch, the hip number decides. The maker gives ranges: 92-95 cm for S, 96-98 cm for M, 99-102 cm for L and 103-106 cm for XL. The waist goes from 66-69 cm in S to 78-81 cm in XL.
If your hips and waist fall in different sizes, follow the hips. A waist that is slightly loose can be fixed with a tucked-in top; a hip that is too tight cannot.
Size chart (cm)
| Size | Hips width | Waist width |
|---|---|---|
| S | 92-95 | 66-69 |
| M | 96-98 | 70-73 |
| L | 99-102 | 74-77 |
| XL | 103-106 | 78-81 |
Source: the maker's size table. The ranges read like body measurements, but the maker does not say so. The table gives no length.
Styling: plain on top
The model wears a white tank top tucked in and black pumps. Keep that idea and the print does the rest. A plain white shirt, a black fine-knit jumper or a pale blue blouse all work.
We like it with a black blazer and flat pointed shoes for long days. If you want colour, add it in one place only, a red lip or a mustard bag.
Occasions
This is a skirt for work. Meetings, client visits, a job interview, a day at a conference where you sit a lot and still want to look sharp at five.
With heels and a dark top it can carry on into dinner. We would not call it a weekend skirt.
Care: follow the label
We have no care text from the maker, so follow the label sewn into the skirt.
A general tip for skirts with a covered zip: close it before washing and keep a hot press away from the zip itself.
The wow detail: a print you notice the second time
The pattern is so small that it works like a texture. A colleague will see a grey skirt in the morning and only notice the white motifs at the coffee machine. That is the nice thing about it: it is a print for people who usually wear plain.
