Handcrafted One-Of-A-Kind Upcycled jean skirt

Introducing a LRD Afrocentric jean skirt, a fusion of heritage and sustainability that celebrates Black cultural pride. Handcrafted with meticulous detail, this skirt embodies the essence of African-influenced attire, but with a sporty twist…Ankara fabric and a classic American style jean skirt, to create a new funky fresh African American style.

At its core, this skirt features a genuine leather stylized Ankh appliqué, a symbol of life deeply rooted in ancient Egyptian culture. The Ankh, representing the key to life, adorns this skirt with rich heritage and symbolism.

A knee length denim skirt with asymmetrical high-low raw edge hem, pieced with Ankara fabric, grosgrain ribbon trim and two fully functioning metal side seam zippers that let you choose to be modest….or not.

Included is a one-yard cut piece of matching Ankara fabric, providing you with the opportunity to personalize your look with a headwrap or to make a DIY accessory that reflects your unique cultural style.

Crafted from thrifted denim jeans, this LRD skirt embraces sustainability by repurposing thrifted jeans honoring the earth's finite resources used to the them. It's a small step towards more responsible fashion practices, countering the disposable nature of fast fashion.

Experience the allure of Diasporic fashion with a Lucy Roots Denim art wear piece — a seamless fusion of African heritage and modern style. Each stitch tells a story of ethnic pride and cultural expression, making it more than just clothing—it's a statement of identity and belonging.
