Does anyone know some brands that sell satin skater skirts?
I’ve been trying to find some in the same flowy style as the pictures below for YEARS now. It seems like no brands care to make them or offer any at an affordable price. The only ones I can ever find are those ugly “wrap” skater skirts or ones made of brushed satin
It doesn’t matter if it’s sold retail or secondhand, just nothing over $50. Please avoid any Chinese brands that sell on sites like Amazon, AliExpress, Alibaba, SHEIN, etc!
Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
P.S. these skirts were either super expensive or not shipped to the U.S. else I would’ve bought them.
You'll need to search for "silk charmeuse" to avoid the cheap satin/poly stuff. Brand new and from China (cheapest option) you are looking at just under $100 so given your constraints you'll need to go secondhand.
That said, there is almost no market for real silk short flowy skirts. Your average girl who can pull off the look will be happy paying Shein prices for poly satin. You can very rarely find them from upscale designers but there is a substantial premium you pay for what is really a very basic design.

I’m personally fine with polyester charmeuse/satin, it doesn’t have to be silk. The quality of poly satin usually depends on the brand. It’s just crazy to me that no mid-priced brands produce poly satin skirts in this style for $30-$50.
Do you have any name brand suggestions for high quality poly satin skater skirts?
