Rare Pleated Stretch Cotton Mini Skirt Black Archival 2000s

Deconstructed Design of the Early 2000s

This pleated mini-skirt by Rare is a perfect example of deconstructed tailoring, typical of the experimental Italian fashion scene of the early 2000s. Made from fluid, lightweight black stretch cotton.

Technical Details & Precise Measurements

The engineered cut reflects the quality craftsmanship of the Venetian brand. The fabric is a skillful blend of 97% cotton and 3% elastane, a combination specifically designed to ensure maximum stability of the pleat over time and offer a fluid drape that does not crease. The shade is a full and uniform black. The structural closure is managed cleanly and essentially on the side. Italian size 40. Linear measurements taken on the flat garment indicate a waist width of 35 centimeters and a vertical length of 55 centimeters at its main cut point.

Condition: Excellent (9/10)

The garment is in excellent structural condition, carefully checked and ready to be added to a collection. The fabric fibers maintain their original compactness and the intensity of the black color is vivid and uniform across the entire surface, without fading or halos. The pleated workmanship of the lower panel is perfectly defined, regular and completely free from loosening or deformation due to time. All internal seams, the profiles of the asymmetrical hem, and the closure systems are intact and secure. The Rare fabric labels sewn inside, showing size 42 and composition, are original from the era, clean and perfectly legible.

The archive pieces from the Rare brand selected by Vintage Bro tell an important chapter of independent Italian design at the turn of the millennium. A purchase that combines the exclusivity of an uncommon research piece with the ethical and conscious choice to support high-level circular fashion.
