Nice, but do get smaller size

By cedaryogi from Washington State on 07/21/2009

Pros:
Attractive Design, Comfortable, Flattering, Nice Color, Nice Fabric, Versatile
Cons:
Wrinkles Easily
Best Uses:
Casual Wear
Describe Yourself:

Length:

Waist:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is the first true wrap skirt that wraps far enough to be worry-free. On me, the waist rides lower in front, higher in back and is not ideal for tuck-in shirts. I agree with other reviewers--buy at least one size down if not two--it can ride anywhere from my true waist to my hips, so there's some flexibility.

This is great casual skirt, the wrap around style with such hardy material will not flap in the wind. The green is rich and I suspect it will look great with boots in the cool weather.

The weight of the fabric is great...very similar to denim. I ordered a size down, as recommended, and it fits great! I'm going to love this skirt!

Great Skirt

By New Fan of Skirts from Indianapolis, IN on 06/07/2009

Pros:
Attractive Design, Comfortable, Flattering, Nice Color, Nice Fabric, Versatile
Best Uses:
Casual Wear, Wear To Work
Describe Yourself:
Casual Dresser
Length:

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I followed previous advice about sizing (I think they said it ran big), and the skirt I got fit beautifully. The fabric is great and seems very durable, with a good drape. I've worn it all over the city many times and feel comfortable moving in it and pairing with my a dressy or casual top. The dark blue really does have a tinge of green, giving it a depth that is a nice change from traditional jean skirts.

Great Skirt - Way too big

Even though the ad stated that it ran large and I ordered a size smaller, it's still way too big. So, I'm going to return it and, hopefully, the next size smaller will fit. With a size that small, I should wear it inside out so everyone can see the size tag!

Bottom Line:

Even though I ordered a size smaller than I usually do, I still needed to take the waist in a bit. The fabric is quite heavy and would be best for cooler weather. The skirt is very comfortable and modest considering it's a wrap-around. Great skirt. I think I'll be wearing it a lot!

Kavu Orcas in Brown

Bottom Line:

I plan to wear this skirt in place of shorts for the summer and fall months. Will take on a European trip, as it will be good when walking. It has a nice modified a-line fit. The wrap is secure and the fabric of a good weight, so it won't blow open. Definitely runs large. I wear a 10, ordered an 8 and it fits well. Pull it down on your hips and the fit makes sense, but order down one size.

Hopelessly large

Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Even though I ordered this skirt one size too small, it not only fell below my waist but fell off. The length made it look frumpy, and the clasps at the side were just weak metal and difficult to work with.
