No longer simply a wardrobe staple for the office worker, the pencil or ‘tube’ skirt has undergone a spring reinvention.
Think of a trend – florals, metallics, prints and pastels – and it’s been covered with this sexy separate.
Deemed the ultimate figure flatterer, the pencil flaunts curves like no other skirt and lengthens the lower body at the same time, making it a wardrobe essential.
So get on the straight and narrow this season with these pencil sensations.
