Topshop<\/a> has made its long-anticipated return to high street<\/a>, and we couldn\u2019t be happier. <\/p>\n

The runway show over the weekend was impressive, and there are a number of items we bookmarked from the catwalk show. Thankfully, Topshop has its own website so you can shop the runway looks, and much more, now. <\/p>\n

So, it\u2019s unsurprising we have a long list of items in our shopping basket, including the Flood Length Cupro Maxi Bias Skirt<\/a>, which we think looks very similar to Faithfull The Brand\u2019s Elise Skirt<\/a> – just \u00a3183 less. <\/p>\n

Topshop Flood Length Cupro Maxi Bias Skirt<\/h2>\n

Crafted from a viscose and polyester blend, this floor length maxi skirt is lightweight and floaty. The maxi style skirt features a mid-rise waist and has been cut on a regular fit, which skims the body for a comfortable fit. It features a contrast stripe print on a diagonal, and is available in various colourways. It comes in UK dress sizes 4 to 18.<\/p>\n

Topshop’s Flood Length Cupro Maxi Bis Skirt<\/a> is a welcome alternative to the classic satin slip midi skirts we have lived in for years. Why? Because this design is longer in length, and offers a regular fit that allows this skirt to flow elegantly down the body without restricting mobility as much as the figure hugging midi bias skirt. <\/p>\n

This design has been crafted from viscose and polyester blend, which combine to create a lightweight woven fabric that can see you through all seasons. <\/p>\n

The skirt is a mid-rise design, though you can easily cinch it up higher for more coverage because there is length in the skirt to play with.<\/p>\n

The Topshop design<\/a> has a stripe front pattern, and it\u2019s the blue, brown and cream variation that reminds us of Faithfull The Brand\u2019s Elise Skirt. Though it is available in other colourways too. <\/p>\n

Made from a cotton and linen fabric, this skirt is lightweight, breathable and ultra flattering. It is a mid-rise design, and cut on a regular straight fit that falls to the ankles. (Picture: Metro\/Faithfull The Brand)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Similar to Topshop\u2019s design, Faithfull The Brand\u2019s<\/a> original design has been crafted for a dual fabric blend, but the designer variation blends cotton and linen, which is lightweight, breathable and ultra comfortable. <\/p>\n

Though unlined, the material combined with the straight fit of this skirt lends itself to a floaty skirt. <\/p>\n

The main difference is the Elise skirt is a midaxi length as it falls to the ankles, rather than the long length alternative. <\/p>\n

While Topshop\u2019s skirt<\/a> is a slip on design, Faithfull The Brand\u2019s<\/a> skirt features a hidden zip closure, which offers a secure fit. <\/p>\n

This design features a diagonal stripe, though it is a finer asymmetric stripe than Topshop\u2019s variation. <\/p>\n

The Topshop design is more inclusive as it is available in UK dress sizes 4 to 18, whereas Faithfull The Brand\u2019s skirt comes in XS to XL sizes. <\/p>\n

The other huge difference is of course the price tag; Topshop\u2019s skirt costs \u00a342, while Faithfull The Brand\u2019s design fetches \u00a3225. <\/p>\n

While you can style the Elise skirt with the matching bandeau top, which is sold separately, it can also be paired with a linen shirt, tank top, or oversize T-shirt. We would style the Topshop skirt the exact same way, but we would also pair with a chunky brown knit sweater in the winter and boots, so it is more versatile in our opinion than the designer buy. <\/p>\n
