Zip On Panels Explained

You have two choices when purchasing your basic skirt – you can go for a regular fit, which is a classic straight skirt silhouette (‘pencil’ skirt), or a sexy fit (skirt silhouette follows your curves and sits firmer).

After you have purchased your basic skirt, there are then three panel types. There are flat panels with different patterns and prints, and plain panels of varying colors with elegant front pleating (called the Elegance Panel). Zipping them on and off is exactly like zipping up a jacket – it’s ridiculously easy, and literally only takes 2 or 3 seconds.

When traveling with the skirt, there is only minimal creasing when packed (shake to remove). Women’s travel fashion.

Though with a huge range of multi-purpose clothing starting to hit the market, what stands out about the Zippy Skirt is the wider, double knit waistband which creates a flattering silhouette for all body shapes.

The skirt is designed specifically to cater to different shapes and sizes, and the waistband design enhances comfort and holds you in.

  1. This sounds like a very exciting product and great to hear that it is coming from an Australian designer. Almost all the clothing I own is versatile for travel, so I am always looking for other options besides the basic pieces that I already have. It is hard to be on the road for long periods of time and stay stylish ha ha. The Zippy skirt seems to provide an alternate option with many different options to change the style. I love that it is practically wrinkle-free and quick dry.

  2. The Zippy skirt sounds like such an interesting product! It’s amazing how versatile the designers have made it! Thanks for sharing!

  3. I love the practicality behind the design! I’m that traveler who uses my pockets as a purse so its pretty good to see that there is actually a fashionable way to carry my things on me! Wonder if she’ll release something for menswear too!

  4. Fashionable and functional…I love it! It’s perfect for traveling.

  5. Thank you!!! This is exactly what I have been looking for! Fashion that is practical for the win – thanks Meg

  6. If only we blokes had an equivalent! A sarong is pretty close though :-)

  7. I love seeing pieces like that that are so versatile. They make packing light so easy and yet you still have so many options. A skirt with a place for my cell phone would be really optimal. Why haven’t more people thought of that?

  8. This sounds like the perfect item for every female traveller. I love the idea that the panels allow you to have multiple outfits from the same item.

  9. It looks chic yet so practical. An excellent present for female travellers…Would also look quite dandy on a night out in Silom on Sebastien too :)

  10. This sounds like a cool skirt and definitely a way to pack less and get more outfits out of each piece you bring. I will consider this, since I like to have the option to dress up or down and bring something that I can wear at a fancy event or just for taking a stroll around town.

  11. Little black skirts are very sexy on women. I like the functionality of this dress with the ability to hide your iPhone. I agree with Jack. Men need to have outfits like these…lol.

  12. What a cute, handy skirt!! Looks like it’ll match with everything :P travel

  13. I’ve been seeing a lot of advertisements for it on Facebook. Looks very handy and practical.

  14. I like the concept of this design and love supporting small-scale designers. I am not sure I would wear this. I would always be losing the interchangeable panels.

  15. Thanks for your positive feedback everyone. I’m all about encouraging people to explore the globe with a light suitcase – I’ll put a versatile man’s garment on the list for future study :) I’m currently giving away a complimentary personal style session with all online Zippy Skirt sales over $150 – it’s a great time to buy Zippy Skirts.

  16. I LOVE that it has a pocket- my husband and I were just complaining today as we’re travelling that none of my clothing seems to have pockets, and I’m always trying to hand him stuff to carry! :-)

  17. The zippy skirt sounds like such an interesting and versatile product – it would be great to be able to reduce packing items by having something that can be worn and paired with so many other things!

  18. This is great – hardly anything makes it into my pack if it can’t be worn in more than one way. What a pretty version of those zip pants men have been wearing for years!!

  19. The skirts are just awesome, but the most i like the small purse you can attach with the skirts. Its easy to carry on everything rather than hanging purse on shoulder.

    • Glad you love the zip-on travel bag (purse), we currently have a 70% off all online product until this Wednesday at http://www.zippyskirts.com.au :-)
