It's a nice looking skirt in the picture, but we're quite disappointed that it's described as having "elastic back for pull on ease" when in fact there is NO ELASTIC BACK; it's a fixed-waist skort, with a SIDE ZIPPER that my butterfingers 4 year old entering Kindergarten will have an impossible time with in the bathroom at school. The only elastic is two small adjustable buttoned elastic tabs INSIDE to pull the skirt tighter if it's a loose fit...however if the skirt actually fits, the only way to get it on/off is via the zipper on the side, where little ones (like ours) might have difficulty. Also, pleats do no go all around the skirt...something we might have known in advance had the product picture included more than just a front view.
