A signature example of Thierry Mugler’s architectural approach to tailoring, this vintage 1980s pencil skirt pairs a sleek, body-skimming silhouette with one of the designer’s most recognizable details: an oversized sculptural silver-tone buckle belt. Rendered in a rich forest green hue, the high-waisted design creates the sharp, hourglass proportions synonymous with Mugler’s power dressing era.
The dramatic organic-shaped buckle adds a distinctly futuristic touch, transforming an otherwise classic pencil skirt into a statement piece. Elegant and endlessly versatile, it pairs beautifully with a crisp white shirt, a fitted knit, or a structured blazer for a look that feels both timeless and unmistakably Thierry Mugler.
