The verdict

Is the price fair?
At $1375, this is firmly in The Row's prestige range. Price is driven by design and execution, not novelty.
Best for
A collector of high-end basics who appreciates the brand's minimalist editorial vision.
Care
Premium fabrics often need careful dry-cleaning; hand-wash only if labeled safe.
What owners report about The Row skirts
Owner-level coverage of The Row's skirts is sparse; what exists comes from personal-style writers who own and examine the brand's pieces. One detailed review of the label's double-face wool skirts praises the construction — seams finished clean on both faces — while concluding the designs are too plain for the four-figure prices and that similar construction can be found for far less. Writers who own multiple pieces from the brand consistently describe the quality itself as genuinely luxury-grade, with natural-fiber fabrics (wools, silks, cashmeres) and durable make. The recurring pushback in reviews is value for money, not construction failures.
- Strengths
- Reviewers consistently rate the construction and natural-fiber fabric quality as genuinely high-end, with cleanly finished double-face wool seams singled out for praise.
- Watch out for
- The recurring complaint is price-to-design value — reviewers find the skirts visually basic for the money — rather than anything failing or wearing out.
