Oh I like the shape of that and it would suit me but would need to see in the flesh to know if it looks all polyesterish and therefore cheap.

janeite it is really very 'heavy' and looks much more expensive than that typically AWFUL M & S shot on the website.

It's sort of pencillish with a twist and made my arse look tres pert.

Will have a look as I do really like the shape. Not that I need new skirts though. I sorted out my wardrobe the other day and had about 20 skirts but hardly any tops!

I never wear skirts, but like the shape of this one.
I may have a look.

I like the look of that - how does it come up sizewise? Am fat 10 / smallish 12.

I do really like it but not sure about pockets near the waist - will the make hips look wider?

Also wondering about tulips skirts - do you think only petite women can really wear them?

slyandgobbo I am a porky 14 atm and it was perfect for me. So you may getaway with a 10.

HeatedThe pockets near the hips do not add any bulk (I am more than bulky enough there already.)

If my job didn't involve rolling around on the floor and getting trodden on I would have bought both of them.

The model in the video is wearing a size too big IMO. it's not that long or low on the hip.
