Stretch Cotton Poplin Midi Skirt

This skirt is fantastic! It fits true to size, hits mid-shin and looks stunning with nude heals and a white blouse. It's an easy skirt that doesn't get wrapped around your legs when you walk. It does not look "frumpy" or "old-fashioned" because of the length. It's really flattering and super-feminine. I LOVE the thick hem.

For all garments, but especially dresses and pants, I'd like hem length and inseam explicitly stated. It doesn't help me for the video stylists to state about a dress or skirt, "I'm 5'9 and this hits me at my knee". Just tell me the length in inches of the item so I can measure it against my own height!

This fabric is lovely poplin with a slight sheen. Stitched down pleats that give it a smooth look. It was just too much fabric for my short frame, but if I was taller I would love to swish it around!

Like the reviewer before me I also am 5'2" but I expect to have to hem things to make them the right length for me, especially pants. This skirt was long on me but a length many women wear so it wouldn't have looked odd on me if I'd left it the way it was. I decided to hem it several inches and now it's just right. :) I don't think it runs small. In fact I first ordered the XS, which is what I usually wear, but found it to be a little big (but fine if I wanted it hanging from my hips) so I reordered it in an XX-Small, which fits perfectly, aside from my wanting to hem it. I love this skirt. It's flattering, comfortable and timeless. Looks very nice with my simple black top and black ballet flats.

Really wish skirts came in different lengths as well as sizes, because at 5'2" this skirt is more like ankle length than mid calf as shown. It throws off the entire fit and look to have it be so long. Sadly going to have to return. I'd also say that this runs just slightly small. With all the vanity sizing, I'm usually an XS in dresses, but in this, the small felt snug.
