This skirt fits absolutely lovely. It's made of a stretchy soft polyester material with a slip liner underneath. Because the stretch is in the material and doesn't have a thick elastic band in the waist, it hugs your curves instead of squeezing them, meaning no muffin top! Glorious! I followed the size guide in the images per the measurements. I'm usually a 16-18, but the size guide recommended a 22, which fits like a glove. What's better? The right number or the right fit? So comfy and doesn't ride up. I only received the black one today but ordered in the floral, polka dot and leopard because it's seriously the most flattering pencil skirt. Just buy it.
