Very versatile

Rating:*****
I bought two of these skirts (one in beige and one in black) with the idea of using them exclusively while attending a business meeting in Italy followed by traveling. They worked great. I was able to dress them up and down. I dropped cake crumbs on the beige one, which left some spots. After getting back to our room, I washed it in the sink, rolled it in a towel, hung it on a hanger, and smoothed out any wrinkles. By morning, the skirt was ready to go and looked like new (no spots!).

I love this skirt with an undying love!

Rating:*****
I bought this for travel, but it is now part of my work wardrobe! The zipper on the sides make it versatile--all the way down for church, half-way for work, all the way up for a night out. :o) I have no trouble with static electricity, and the fabric is awesome in its wrinkle-shedding powers. I'm buying another one because I never want to be without this skirt!

Comfy skirt!

Rating:****
This skirt is a great lightweight fabric but sticks to your legs it is so full of static. (I do live in a dry area- but this is the worst I've seen). It is quite versatile and the zip up sides are cool. It runs very large so order at least one size smaller than you usually get!

Excellent skirt

Rating:*****
I love these skirts. I got 2 of them and both are great. I do need to send the one back since the zipper didn't work correctly but otherwise I have no complaints

Love but has zipper issue

Rating:****
Love the skirt, but many of them have an issue with the zipper in the last 3 inches. The zipper gets caught on the waist seam. Need to check this before purchase.

Nice skirt but the zipper is horrible!

Rating:***
I love the style and fabric. I am a teacher and will wear this skirt to work. I would also wear it to go out in the evening.
However it was a challenge to figure out the sizing which was off by about 2 sizes (in other words, a size 6 in another garment was a 2 in this skirt).
The most frustrating thing was the zipper in the skirts that I tried on. All had major difficulties in unzipping and zipping. In a couple of skirts on the rack, I was not able to even get the zipper to move!
I may have to get someone to replace the zipper with one that works a little easier.
