The Ana skirt
FEATURES
• 100% Cotton Fabric, 100% silk details
• Side pockets
• Invisible zipper closure at the back
• Care: Dry Clean
• Available in sizes XS-1X, see our size chart below
A 1940s-style A-line skirt crafted from sturdy Italian cotton, featuring practical pockets and a discreet back zipper. Dedicated to Ana Recio Harvey, Mexican entrepreneur and CEO of Dupont Underground, a cultural space in Washington, D.C. that brings together innovative art experiences. The skirt is adorned with hand-dyed silk ribbons arranged to resemble a bouquet, echoing Ana’s commitment to bringing art and community together.
The design draws on Ana’s childhood memories of celebrating Día de los Muertos at her grandmother’s home, where papel flores—delicate paper flowers—filled altars with color and meaning. Rooted in pre-Hispanic ritual traditions and later transformed through colonial influences, these flowers symbolize life, joy, and impermanence.
The bouquet motif also honors the first exhibition Ana brought to Dupont Underground, featuring Macmo Colectivo (Mujeres Artistas Creando Movimiento) - a union of 29 women artists from Oaxaca who came together to support one another and claim visibility in a male-dominated art world—reimagined here as many distinct yet unified blossoms.
