I wear mine when it's wet, when it's cold, even when I can't be bothered to get out of my pj's first thing in the morning to walk the dogs!! It's been 4 years since I got mine and it's a staple part of my outdoors wardrobe. No more swishy (I hate that noise!), difficult to get in and out of (OMW I dont miss that!), over trousers for me!! I love that you made these skirts, thank you!!

Original Moorland

where do I begin with this AMAZING skirt . Not only is it absolutely beautiful, its 100% warm and waterproof. Super easy to wear, get on, get off, jump in and gallop for miles! First time I wore it was for 6 hours galloping on the moors in bitter wind and piercing rain, not only was I completely dry but my saddle was too. I cannot fault this item, its my go too for any chilly or wet day and would 100% recommend to anybody and everybody I know, Thank you Odette for making such a beautiful , hard wearing and fantastic skirt.

I absolutely adore my skirt, my second winter and I wear it every day through autumn, winter and spring. I shoot, ride the horses, all yard duties and walk the dogs and clean out the chickens and I’m often seen in the supermarket still wearing it! I’m known as the lady in the skirt on the yard. Warm, waterproof and stylish.I love the fact it’s handmade by Odette. The quality of this skirt is 100%. I can honestly say it’s one of the best purchases I’ve ever made.”
