This skirt is GORGEOUS! I'm a size 10 and it's a squeeze to get it over my hips, but once it's at my waist it fits perfectly. It's a little long (I'm 5'4), so I rolled the band twice and covered it with the sash provided. I may get it hemmed, but I wouldn't have to. My only real issue is that it isn't lined, so it was basically see through in the light color, but a white slip (also Amazon) fixed that problem. Also, I ordered the gray and it's more of a lavender, as you can tell in the picture.
