Another great item from Icebreaker - this wool skirt is soft, flow-ey, easy to slip on and off and is very comfortable - great for travelling as it doesn't need ironing, and dries quickly and well. And even though it is wool, it does NOT feel hot to wear in warm weather conditions, and in cooler conditions, I'd just layer it with leggings! You can adjust the length a little by folding the waistband over, but that would make excessing the small pocket at the waistband, difficult - ultimately, the length will be around the knee. The fit is fine, I am a US 2, and XS fits well! Love Icebreaker!
