I had to pay $50 to have this twill cotton skirt altered - it was about 5 inches too long. I sent it back the first time; don't read the reviews that state it is too small. I usually wear a 2X fitted but ordered a 3X because of previous reviews. That was a mistake; the 2X was the correct size, but again - no petites were offered and I had to have this altered.

This skirt is very well made inside and out, and looks great when it's worn, because the fabric is a good quality and weight, and hangs well. The measurements are accurate as posted with the description. The two sets of buttons allows you to make the adjustments to get the right fit. My order arrived when promised, and in great condition. A great shopping experience!

Once again a very well made garment. Rather heavy but that's ok. My only fuss is that I would really like the tops go with the bottoms. I bought a black blouse and was really hoping that the black skirt would match but there is a difference, especially in the sun. The skirt is more of a dark charcoal shade. However, I will wear them together as I have a big frilly apron to break things up. Even if you sold the fabric, I could makeup an Eton jacket. I saw that is the same situation with the wool skirts. I'd buy the fabric as the cost of the fabric and the time spent making would equal out the cost of the finished garment. I go for historical accuracy as much as possible. Buying something once in a while just beats making it even if it is only half the outfit.

I wear petite proportioned garments so I had to alter the length and take in the waist... better than it being too small. It's well made and good quality so alteration is possible without destroying it.

Love this skirt! Fits well and very comfortable.

Comfortable, adjustable, and attractive. Fits true. Well made and washed well. Versatile for lots of looks.

The cotton twill walking skirt in black looks fabulous. I'm very impressed with the fabric quality, attention to detail, and price. I did order an XL large and returned it for the Large--the large fits beautifully and will allow for weight loss adjustments. Now, I have to find an instock blouse! This garment is for casual wear--it looks awesome with my Fluevogs--but it can also be glammed up for night life.

The skirt is amazing, a real victorian skirt, heavy and soft. Very beautiful and comfortable.

Exactly as described. Quality made and fit perfectly. Love the back closure which is easy to adjust.

I was amazed at how soft this was. Like brushed cotton. I am 4'10" and with the substantial amount of hemming needed, it was still shapely and flattering, and looked even better with the wide belt they sell. I'm glad to have this skirt, I think it will be very versatile for different costumes and events. Very good price for the quality.

I recently started working where I needed 1880's clothing. I ordered this skirt and was happy that is was good quality fabric and construction. I will be able to use it for many years.

This skirt is as described and I'm quite happy with it. Love that it has adjustable buttons in the waistline. I am 5'8" and it is the perfect length. Should look good with a hoop.

My daughter portrayed Aleen Cust, a turn of the century woman and 1st female veterinarian for a history project. She was timid and hesitant to be in the spotlight. Looking the part was a real confidence booster! She looked just like a real woman from 1900 who had to be practical about her clothing but fit perfectly in the fashion of the period. Making the skirt would have cost time and no less money. I will use them again in future for period outfits- school functions, reenactments, Halloween.

I am very happy with this walking skirt. It fits perfectly and hangs well to flatter me. The fabric is authentic looking and I would highly recommend this skirt.
