Man Fung Yuen Wu made in Paris skort and a vintage 70′s abstract blouse by Mardi Modes.

I tried my damnedest to find any information on this skort by Man Fung Yuen Wu and just came up empty handed.  I was enamored with the buttons on front and of course the classic houndstooth pattern, I’m a sucker for a classic pattern.  For those of you who aren’t familiar with what a skort is I’ll give you a very brief introduction:  a skort is a pair of women’s shorts with a flap of fabric in front to make it look like a skirt.   The term “skort” ( a portmanteau of skirt and shorts) is used idiomatically in some regions.  There was another reason I pillaged this skort and it was the simple word in the label “Paris”.   I said out loud when I saw the word “Paris”  Ooh La La.  Paris is one of my favorite cities and the first time I went was to spend an entire Summer, when I first arrived I felt like I had been there before.  No other place in the world had I felt that strong of a connection before.  So getting back to the skort I loved the fact that it was indeed a skort, the buttons, pattern and yes the word “Paris”.  I found this 70′s retro abstract blouse by Mardi Modes that I think would look FANTASTIC with this skort.  If I could find these Jean Paul Gaultier wedges at a thrift store, you know that would not only make for the perfect day, but a show stopper ensemble.  Please check out The Thrifters Boutique and follow me on Twitter & Facebook, also please enjoy my YouTube videos on thrifting and share with fellow friends.  Toodles for now.  Daniel
