It's a very cute skirt. Perhaps that skirt is a Q-skirt??? I look forward to what others have say.

I found this - about Leon Levin -

"Women began to play golf in large numbers in the 1960's which led to the development the famous Leon Levin "Q" skirt or "skort" which offered the freedom of the shorts and the soft lines of a skirt. It became an immediate favorite on the Ladies Professional Golf Tour. "

Was he maybe thinking of culottes when he came up with the name? ("Q" sounds kinda like "Cu", if you twist your inner ear enough...)

I love the zipper in front--adds a bit of sass to the sportiness!
