This skirt was of extremely poor quality. The picture is much better. The fabric is so horrendous that, when I received it, there were already holes wearing through it near the waistband. The embellishments wouldn't have lasted through the first hand washing. If you read their fine print, they call their products "imitation India." It's made in Michigan! Also in the fine print, when you return it (and you will) they will not refund the original shipping which is astronomical! The shipping for mine was $9.94, way more than half of the price of the skirt - $14.99. And yes, I know "you get what you pay for," but you can get much higher quality merchandise when you buy from companies actually in India. And the shipping will be the same! This is the worst company I have ever done business with - in quality, shipping, and communication.
