Micronesian Skirts in the Colours of the Pacific

A Micronesian skirt is a long, A-line skirt with an elastic waist and bold embroidered or printed florals such as hibiscus and plumeria. Women across the Federated States of Micronesia, the Marshall Islands, Guam and Pacific communities in the USA wear them to church, celebrations and every day. In Pohnpei the skirt is called an urohs. Learn more about Micronesian traditional attire.

A Pohnpeian skirt (urohs) is best known for wide bands of machine embroidery above the hem. A Chuukese skirt is usually longer and often adds lace, ruffles or tiers. Both have a comfortable elastic waist. Browse Pohnpeian-style skirts or Chuukese skirts, or read how to choose a Chuukese skirt.
