Pleated maxi skirt

18 replies

tethersend · 03/07/2013 20:47

I fancy a chiffony one in a pale-ish colour, size 16; the cheaper the better... Has anyone seen any nice ones?

Ideally, I'd like one which is fitted almost to the hips and then flares out in little pleats IYSWIM, but I can't find anything like that.

Any links gratefully received.

not very pale but otherwise correct. maybe

Matalan,an aztec print in 2 different colours.

tethersend · 03/07/2013 22:41

Thanks both- I found this one which pretty much fits the bill...

I want a yellow pleated midi skirt, or a pink one - anybody? :)

I like that, Tethers.

Mango have some which are similar to the River Island one you've linked to but cheaper...

tethersend · 03/07/2013 22:51

Thanks, will have a look.

Remus, I saw a yellow one, I'm sure of it... Buggered if I can remember where though... Will think.

They also appear to have a pink midi skirt! Not pleated though.

tethersend · 03/07/2013 22:53

I think it was this one...

It's fab. I love it - but I hate ordering online, as things are inevitably wrong and I can't be faffed with sending stuff back. Like that but in a real shop would be absolutely perfect.

PetiteMum · 04/07/2013 18:30

so what happens to the pleats post-wash?

tethersend · 04/07/2013 20:50

Oh just order it Grin

It's free returns if it's shit.

But I'm out of the house from 7.15 until nearly 6 every day. I can't actually post any parcels!

tethersend · 05/07/2013 07:30

I used to use the school mail Wink

Topshop had them in. I gave up, felt like my nan in all of them and got the fishtail maxi from boohoo. Much more flattering!

Remus Asos use the collect+ (or whatever it is) service which means you can do returns via lots of local newsagents/shops.

StepAwayFromTheEcclesCakes · 05/07/2013 10:07

Primark have loads

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 05/07/2013 21:05

Thanks. School mail not an option (have mentioned my workplace's 'issues' before, Tethers!). I hate faff though, and returns are faff in some way or other, whatever system.

I'll keep hoping. :)

tethersend · 05/07/2013 21:41

Yes, I remember your school!

I'll keep looking Smile
