Women's Manuela Midi Skirt

The Manuela Skirt is a timeless embodiment of the sensuous serpent—showcasing elegance and edge in Burmese python. This wild Burmese python (Python bivittatus) is sourced from the Florida Everglades, where it is a highly invasive species. Just one 20-foot python can consume up to 39 endangered animals and over 460 native species in its lifetime. With 90% of native Everglades wildlife populations under threat, the need is great for removing these predators. By doing so, this initiative helps restore ecological balance to one of the most unique ecosystems in the world. The python hides are tanned using traditional Italian techniques, resulting in a luxurious and smooth snakeskin hand-feel. This purpose-driven harvesting of exotic leathers provides a meaningful, sustainable alternative in luxury leather production.
