Our Signature Designer Skirt Collection
Designer Leather & Silk Midi Skirts
Crafted from supple calfskin and fluid silk crêpe, our midi skirts offer refined proportions that fall gracefully at mid-calf. Each silhouette balances structure with ease, available in camel, navy, and black—shades that transition effortlessly from office meetings to evening gatherings.
Professional Wool & Statement Mini Skirts
Our wool mini skirts pair tailored precision with luxurious comfort. Perfect for urban sophistication, these styles feature clean lines and subtle details. Pair them with ankle boots for a polished look that embodies Parisian elegance throughout the season.
New Season Full Skirt Silhouettes
This season's full skirt silhouettes embrace voluminous shapes and dramatic movement. Cut from textured tweeds and cashmere blends, these designs create striking proportions while remaining beautifully wearable. The A-line cuts flatter naturally, adding a touch of timeless refinement to your wardrobe.
Couture-Inspired Designer Dresses & Gowns
Evening & Formal Gowns
Yves Salomon's evening gowns are crafted for the woman who values refined elegance at galas, weddings, and black-tie events. Each formal gown is tailored with meticulous attention to detail, from hand-finished seams to luxurious linings. Floor-length gowns in silk crêpe or draped jersey offer a timeless silhouette that flatters and flows effortlessly throughout the evening.
Long Sleeve & Knit Dresses
For cooler months, our long sleeve dresses blend sophistication with comfort. Knit dresses in merino wool and cashmere provide structure and warmth, perfect for layering or wearing alone. These pieces transition seamlessly from day meetings to evening gatherings, embodying the understated luxury of French craftsmanship.
Timeless Silk Slip Dresses
The silk slip dress remains an essential in the modern wardrobe. Yves Salomon's slip dresses are cut from the finest silk satin, offering a fluid drape and luminous finish. Wear them alone for summer soirées or layered beneath tailored blazers for a refined, versatile look that transcends seasons.
How to Style Your Designer Skirt or Dress
From Boardroom to Evening Glamour
Pair a wool midi skirt with a cashmere blazer for professional elegance, then swap in silk heels and statement jewelry for evening sophistication. Leather skirts transition beautifully from day to night when styled with a tucked blouse.
Care Guide for Leather, Wool & Silk Pieces
Each luxury piece deserves meticulous attention. Store leather away from direct heat, hand-wash silk in cool water with gentle detergent, and entrust wool garments to specialist dry cleaners. Our atelier offers personalised care consultations.
