The poet’s tartan skirt is sold by The Second Shelf, along with the rare Elsa Schiaparelli and Yayoi Kusama Ephemeral.
Whether as a simple strip of Olivia Rodrigo The Kilt Worn fabric or as a wavy, see-through Harry Styles item. The appearance of skirts in modern fashion, such as those seen in Louis Vuitton, Charles Jeffrey, or Chopova Lowena, does not go unnoticed. Her plaid path to popularity was well paved by the likes of Cher Horowitz. The guy with the oatmeal box, and Sylvia Platt, who wore a pleated green check as a Smith College student, the same skirt now on sale.
With a blue lettering ribbon around the waist, the skirt was first purchased in 2008 by Alison Devers. Owner of The Second Shelf, a rare bookseller in north London. Devers bought the piece for around £2,215, and the shop is now selling the skirt for £12,500.
The ankle-length kilt dated back to the 1950s and was a staple in medieval times and Platt’s wardrobe.
A photograph of the poet and writer wearing a skirt The Kilt Worn while standing in front of Notre Dame Cathedral during a trip to Paris is currently in the archives of the Lilly Library in Indiana. The stone embodies Platt and his personality in every way – his inner conflict. His inner art monster, disguised in the most appropriate and almost reclusive clothing.
It wears items that never go out of style and chooses them with great care for quality and durability.
She is not avant-garde in her fashion. She leaves it to her work, but she exudes style and has a great taste for longevity,” the store said.
Even if the division of Platt’s inheritance may seem unfair to some, it is his daughter Frieda. Who has decided to auction off his items because he fears they will be lost. The second shelf also contains a box of Elsa Schiaparelli hats, a rare poster for Aggregation. The Show of a Thousand Boats by Yayoi Kusama, and a press photo of Simon de Beauvoir from 1908.
