We break down what drove each score so you can weigh trade-offs.

Quality Analysis 60/100

This Balmain skirt, while glamorous with its sequin embellishments and iconic lion-embossed buttons, is made from a delicate viscose-blend knit and is dry-clean only, suggesting it's designed for occasional wear rather than everyday durability.

Comfort Assessment 70/100

This knitted mini skirt, made from a viscose-blend, offers a mid-weight feel that suggests a comfortable drape. While the sequins add glamour, the "knitted" construction implies a degree of flexibility, contributing to ease of movement.

Sustainability Impact 60/100

This skirt contains conventional fossil-fuel synthetics (polyester and polyamide) without any mention of recycled content, which negatively impacts its sustainability score.
