Gorgeous skirt! I wanted a new outfit for our Renaissance faire, and this will work perfectly. The color is true to the photo, and the embroidery is lovely. I'm 5'8", and the skirt hangs just above my ankles (about what you see in the photo). I'm between an XL and XXL in most clothing, and the one size plus did fit comfortably around my true waist, but unfortunately, for any curvier ladies, I think that's probably about as stretchy as it will go.
