Good quality and construction, tasteful, substantial, matte black satin
Needed a long formal black skirt so I could combine with things I already own and achieve a quite dressy outfit. I'm 5" 5", well, not quite, with more length in my torso than my legs. The petite length skirt was the perfect length. No hemming needed. Comfortable waistband. The poly satin is on the thicker side and is an attractive matte black, slightly off-black. It made a nice match-but-with-contrast with a black and leopard dressy top and velvet shawl and brooch. Wrinkles did not come out with washing and drying but a low (polyester) dry iron on the inside of the skirt did the job. I don't prefer the acute flare at the very bottom of the skirt so I rotated the skirt--I placed a side seam over one knee in the front, which put another side seam behind the other leg in back. This caused that extra side-seam flare to read like a kick pleat. More becoming if you are not super narrow. All around, I ended up looking elegant for a very reasonable price and not much time and effort! Read more
