Pairs super well with sweaters!
I bought this skirt thinking that I would wear it in October at some point but ended up wearing it more so in November.What I love:What I love about this skirt is the length, the easy to re-tie bow, and the lightweight fabric. The hems are cleanly sewn, too (I've seen some skirts that just cut off at the bottom, and this is definitely not one of those), which is a huge plus! Also, don't worry about the underneath too much because you will not see through this fabric. I wore leggings under it with gold, glittering stars all over, and nothing peaked through.What I disliked:What I disliked about this product is that the fabric is not easy to de-wrinkle (though it is difficult to add more wrinkles). Something about it just keeps the way it was folded in the box to an odd degree. Prior to wearing it, I steamed it, and when that didn't work, I ironed it. Because the fabric is lightweight, I didn't use too high a heat with the iron, but still was shocked at how little the initial wrinkles were to fade. Washing it and drying it was the only way to significantly impact the folded marks--removing the majority of said folds in the first wash/dry and the rest in the second wash/dry. Since then, however, it has been wrinkle-free to another surprising degree. I mean, I've sat cross-legged for an hour in it and not a wrinkle in sight. That's pretty cool, in my opinion! Just be warned that it is a bit of trial and error to get to the right heat level to smooth this product without burning the fibers.Pairing it:Because of the lightweight fabric, I thought I wouldn't use it during the fall because of the colder weather outside. So, I initially tried to pair it with other lightweight items in my closet--anything that seemed to be a similar material or short-sleeved that I thought I could pair it with for Spring and Summer next year. Nothing really matched it. Sheer tops didn't look compatible and short sleeves didn't seem to work either (whether tucked in or out). I moved on to longer sleeves, thinking I could wear leggings under it and found that all my sweaters paired with the skirt really well. Knits seemed to pair with it the best. I think that it just looks stellar–particularly if you tuck in the front part just a bit and let it sort of hang over the waistband. It looks comfortable and stylish, and–most importantly–it IS comfortable and stylish. I also like that, on me (5'7"), the skirt falls to exactly at my ankles so that I can wear flats or boots or heels, and that's nice.10/10 Recommended!

Elegant and long
I was looking for an ankle length skirt, and this was perfect. I love that it’s has a vintage, classic design, it comes across as very elegant. I’m 5’10”, so it’s always hard to find things that are long enough. This is ankle length on me, not floor and I love it. I’m 130 lbs., usually wear a size 4 or 6 in dress. The medium fits me well, a little loose, but it doesn’t slide down.

Garment smaller than size measurement
UPDATEI tried ordering a medium, and it fit perfectly. Actual waistband size measured at 31". It worked great --with the ties you can take in a fair amount of loose fabric in the waist, which was great for me. I wore it at my natural waist. The fabric on the medium had just a little stretch, which was NOT true of the small. Overall, I think there are just significant quality control issues with this skirt. If you order it for something specific, give yourself enough time to return it and order a different size if necessary. My experience with the medium is 5 stars, and the small is 2 stars. Rounding up to 4 because the medium is a great skirt.ORIGINALSooo...per the many other reviews, this runs small. How small? Well, when I measured the waist on the size small skirt I received, it was 26 inches. The waist measurement in the size chart for the small is 29". I am not entirely sure who did math and decided that a 26 inch garment would fit someone with a 29 inch waist, but they should probably redo that math.Anyway, for reference, my natural waist is 27", mid-hip is 29.5", hip is 38". I am 5'7" with a short torso and 130lbs, ordered a size small initially. Now ordering a medium (close to two sizes up from my normal measurements) to see if it is any better size-wise. I do like the skirt. It is thin and light but not too sheer. Comes out of the package VERY wrinkled, but hoping to steam those out. I'll update this review if it actually fits.Other notable things: The waistband is straight--it doesn't really flare. So if you have a short torso like I do, you may need to size up even more. My hip bone is maybe 2 inches from my ribs when I stand up straight, and the waistband is closer to 3 inches. I would recommend measuring your natural waist and and mid-hip (around where low-rise jeans would fall). Size based on the larger measurement.

Not a Quality Materal
It comes with wrinkles so prepare to have to Iron it. Besides that, it looks like the picture and it is a pretty nice skirt. It does have a thin material that is similar to that of a Halloween costume. I got one size up like the comments were suggesting and it was a little bit big. I would recommend getting your normal size.

So so small, even for what's supposed to be a Large sized skirt.
Look, I realize that I still have to lose a few pounds, okay, but I think I still fit a Large sized garment, skirt, pair of pants, whatever, and it's not supposed to be a big deal. This skirt says Large in all the country sizes withL on the tag, but no amount of pulling, yanking, twisting, or sucking it in on my end will get this skirt to fit on me.I'll have to see if it fits my sister or mom, but the garment does not stretch whatsoever, so if you're like me and you have just a tiny bit more on your body (for whatever reasons) there is no yield to the fabric. You're either a perfect "large" in whatever garment sizing chart this company uses to sew their clothing, or it is a purchase better left unmade. Better yet, now that the shops are opening again, go (with caution) and actually try stuff on. It would've been impossible for me to know this skirt would be too small just based on the pictures or reviews, so maybe that is my fault, but never again, and never again from this company, will I shop for anything. I can't, obviously, because I probably wouldn't fit the X large, either.

Cute!
The product is like the picture, it's cute! Zipper doesn't get stuck and bow is long enough I can decide if I want to tie it in the front or the back.

Way too small
Order 3 sizes up...but only goes to XL. I wear a medium pretty consistently..XL is still too small. Otherwise would have been a great skirt.

las tallas no son reales
Hola, compre la falda pensando que las tallas eran correctas, yo soy talla M pero la pedi en talla G grande por si vienen reducidas, y cuando llego el producto, me medi la falda y no me quedo. Las tallas son demasiado pequeñas. no se como hacer la devolución. Además de caro $$ la tela es demasiado corriente. Creo que están exagerando en el precio.
