Mr Winston Bottoms — Maxi Skirts, Trackpants, Dresses & Matching Sets
Three product worlds in one category — soft modal-blend maxi skirts, heavyweight cotton-fleece trackpants, and statement dresses like the cut-out Julitta Maxi and the Mermaid Jemima matching set.
Italian-leaning silhouettes, NZ warehouse, sized for real bodies — pair anything here with our Puff Hoodies or graphic tees for the full Mr Winston fit.
Five hero pieces from our bottoms range
Most-bought across the bottom range:
the Heavy-Weight Trackpant in Black
pairs with every Puff Hoodie for the canonical lounge-set look.
The Mermaid Jemima Set in Blue
covers wedding-guest and event wear as a matched co-ord.
The Julitta Maxi Dress
sits at the top tier for occasion wear.
The Bijou Polka Midi Skirt
is the vintage-leaning everyday piece.
For warmer-weather lounge, the Everyday Track Pant in Marle
is the lighter alternative to the Heavy-Weight.
Three Ways to Wear a Mr Winston Bottom
Whatever you're dressing for — a coffee run, a wedding guest moment, or a long flight — there's a silhouette in this category that lands.
01 — Skirts & Sets
For dressing up without thinking
Five distinct cuts — the Bijou Polka Midi (50s-leaning, black-on-cream dot print), the Modal Asymmetric Maxi in chocolate brown and pear green, the Modal Low-Rise Midaxi in wine, and the Ruched Asymmetric Maxi. The Mermaid Jemima Set in blue is the only co-ord skirt set in the range.
$99.99 — $149.99
02 — Trackpants
For the lounge-set life
Two weights, two fits. The Heavy-Weight Trackpant in Black uses our 380gsm fleece — same fabric as the Puff Hoodies, designed to be worn as a co-ord. The Everyday Track Pant in Marle is the lighter mid-weight option for warmer-weather lounge days. Both relaxed-fit, both elastic waist with drawcord.
$79.99 — $99.99
03 — Statement Pieces
For the night you remember
The Julitta Hardware-Detail Cut-Out Maxi Dress in Black — body-skimming jersey with engineered cut-out and metal hardware detail at the waist. Plus the Beverly Hills Merch Terry Tee short-bottom in the matching co-ord print. Two pieces that don't sit in any other Mr Winston category.
$99.99 — $149.99
A Note on the Fabrics
Bottoms behave differently to tops — fabric drape, stretch, and weight matter more when something has to fall correctly from the waist. Quick guide to what's used where:
| Fabric | Used in | How it wears |
|---|---|---|
| Modal blend | Asymmetric Maxi, Low-Rise Midaxi | Silk-soft drape, slight cling, doesn't crease in luggage |
| Cotton fleece (380gsm) | Heavy-Weight Trackpant Black | Same fabric as Puff Hoodies — heavyweight, structured, warm |
| Cotton-poly blend | Everyday Track Pant Marle | Lighter handle, faster drying, holds the marle dye well |
| Cotton poplin | Bijou Polka Midi Skirt | Crisp finish, holds the A-line shape, prints stay sharp |
| Stretch jersey | Julitta Maxi Dress, Mermaid Set | Body-skimming with recovery — moves with you, stays put |
Pick Your Occasion
Wedding guest
Julitta Hardware Maxi Dress in Black or the Modal Asymmetric Maxi in Pear Green. Both photograph well, both move with you on the dance floor.
Long-haul flight
Heavy-Weight Trackpant Black + a Puff Hoodie. Or the Mermaid Jemima Set if you want to land looking pulled-together.
Date night
Bijou Polka Midi Skirt with the Cherry Tee, or the Modal Low-Rise Midaxi in Wine for the sleeker version.
Coffee run
Everyday Track Pant Marle with any oversized graphic tee. Effortless, photographable, doesn't try too hard.
The Bottom-Half Questions
Is the Mr Winston Modal skirt see-through in lighter colours?
The Modal Asymmetric Maxi in Pear Green and the Modal Low-Rise Midaxi in Wine both use a double-layer modal construction at the body — opaque in normal indoor and outdoor light. The lighter Pear Green has slightly more translucency in direct sunlight, so most NZ customers wear seamless underwear underneath. The Chocolate Brown and Wine colourways are fully opaque.
Can I wear the Heavy-Weight Trackpant on a flight?
Yes — the Heavy-Weight Trackpant in Black is one of our most-bought pieces for international travel. Same 380gsm cotton fleece as our Puff Hoodies, deep pockets, elastic waist with drawcord, no zips or hardware to set off airport sensors. Pair with the matching black or grey Puff Hoodie for a complete travel-set look.
How does the Mermaid Jemima Set sizing work — is it one piece or two?
The Mermaid Jemima Set in Blue is sold as a co-ord — a fitted top and a flared maxi skirt, sized together. Take your usual size for a fitted-on-top, fluid-on-the-bottom silhouette. The skirt sits at natural waist height. Both pieces use the same stretch jersey for matching drape and recovery.
Will the Julitta Maxi Dress hold its shape if I sit down all night?
The Julitta uses stretch jersey with strong recovery — it returns to its original shape within seconds of standing up. The hardware detail at the waist is metal, properly secured, and won't shift during wear. Pre-tested by our NZ team across full-day events including weddings and weekend travel.
Do the asymmetric skirts work for shorter heights?
The asymmetric cut actually works well on shorter frames — the longest hem hits the calf rather than the floor, so you don't lose proportion. The Modal Low-Rise Midaxi sits below the natural waist and finishes mid-calf, which elongates the leg line. Customers under 165cm typically take size XS or S; taller customers often size up for length.
How do I wash modal-blend bottoms?
Cold gentle wash inside-out, in a mesh laundry bag if possible. Modal hates heat — never tumble dry, never iron above silk setting. Hang to dry on a hanger to keep the drape, not over a flat rail (modal can stretch out of shape if it dries with weight pulling on a fold). Done correctly, the colour and drape will hold for years.
Are matching tops sold separately for the trackpants?
Yes — the Heavy-Weight Trackpant Black co-ords directly with our Black, Grey, and Cloud Grey Puff Hoodies (380gsm fabric match). The Everyday Track Pant Marle pairs with the Grey Marle Puff Hoodie for the head-to-toe marle look. Browse the matching tops on our Hoodie collection page.
