Brocade Long Skirt

Connolly England

£1790

The long Black Brocade Skirt is one of the most elegant pieces in the Connolly Evening Wear collection. The brocade fabric looks beautiful under different lights, and the long pleats give it movement when worn. This skirt can be paired with a crisp white shirt, a silk blouse, or a cashmere and silk t-shirt for a more relaxed style. The skirt has a neat fit, so you might want to choose a size up.

Where this comes from

The part other shops don't tell you. Three separate questions, kept separate on purpose, each with its source.

UK company
Registered at Companies House as CONNOLLY RETAIL LIMITED, number 02081017. Checked 2026-08-29.
Means the business is a British legal entity, not a British-sounding name owned elsewhere. It says nothing about where anything is made.
UK operations
Stated by the company: "No.4 Clifford Street is that home, an elegant Georgian building - one of the oldest in London's Mayfair." — names a location but no site or process, so this corroborates uk_hq more than operations. Source.
Means people employed here, or premises they actually work from. We keep this separate from the company badge because a registered office can be an accountant's spare room, and a company can be registered in Britain while everything it does happens somewhere else. Where we have not looked, we say so rather than assuming.
British-owned
No majority shareholding traced outside the UK. Companies House.
Read from the register of people with significant control, following the chain of holding companies. It does not gate anything: a firm can be made here and owned elsewhere, and that is worth telling you rather than hiding.
Where it is made
The maker doesn't say, so neither do we.
This is about the individual product, not the company. A British firm can sell things made abroad, which is normal and not a criticism. We would rather tell you which is which than average them into a score.
