Skirting the Issue

Kater Hall Skirts

They say life’s a beach, not a runway.

Yet each year, New England’s seaside towns are flooded with a sea of Pepto pinks and foamy greens, Nantucket reds, and starched-out Dockers. All that’s missing are a few popped collars.

Opt for a softer look with Kate Hall’s signature Kater skirt. Hall’s tried-and-true designs fit right into the New England beach scene. Either off the rack or custom-made, these double-lined skirts with contrasting waistbands are true summer essentials.

Hall also has her eye on flirty fabrics like silk taffeta, cotton lace, brocade, and textured cotton. And the Downeast girl keeps it local: All of her clothing is made in Charlestown.

So feel free to dive right in.

Available at Holiday, 53 Charles Street, Beacon Hill (617-973-9730). To see styles, go to katerhall.com.
