Skirt
Skirt worn by Eve Myles in her role as Faith in the BBC drama series, Keeping Faith.
Produced by Vox Pictures for BBC Wales, the series centred around lawyer, Faith Howells, and her investigation into the disappearance of her husband. Many scenes were filmed in and around the south Wales coast and the village of Laugharne.
Black knee-length pencil skirt, part of a suit to be worn with a matching jacket. Vented, with black plain weave synthetic blend lining. The lining is machine-stitched to the skirt's vent but is loose (i.e. not attached to the outer fabric) along the hem. It is attached with two long stitches (to allow movement) which are anchored into the seam allowances of the lower side seams (6cm above the hem). Black plastic zip (with metal slider and pull) fastening at centre back. Additional metal hook and eye fastening at waist, above zip. Self fabric waist band and triangular inserts at either side of front waist for shaping.
