So I got my gypsy skirt and top and was very excited to open the box.  Looking at the top first my first impression was how light the cotton material was and how pretty the design was. the fabric is very very light and has shiny bits in it so it sparkles (not sequins, the sparkles are in the fabric).  The top is really good, you can scrunch it up to look like a chili (midriff top) or you can keep it longer over your stomach. And it's very breezy to wear.  The skirt felt extremely heavy because it has so much fabric.  Again the fabric and design are lovely (i got the purple set) but when I tried it on it is too long.  Because of the weight of the skirt it clearly sits on the hips and will not sit at the waist or even below the waste, it will ride down.  I hesitated over keeping it or sending it back because it is very very long on me.  I have to roll the waist , no way to hem it up without losing some of the lovely design (and so much fabric!!).  I went to the sender's website to see if there was something else to exchange it for but it was the only design I liked, more gypsy than belly dance and that's what I wanted.  In the end I decided to keep it, I'll wear it with rolled waist band!  - But I would suggest it is best suited to someone 5"6 or more.  But it is a very lovely design..
