Longer length skirts

8 replies

I always wear longer length skirts as my legs are horrible. Struggling to find many this season as its not the height of fashion to wear your hem around your ankles. I like the white stuff, jersey type ones that sit nicely on the waist. Have seen a few but they seem to be quite gathered at the waist and when you have a fat belly to add to your woes its not a good look. Can anyone help me please?

Hush have jersey maxi skirts & I would think H&M too. Try Toast too - I have one from last winter which is lovely quality & not too gathered.

I got this one from monsoon today. its beautiful and not full. A bit like the white stuff ones. I love the ethnic print. Gorgeous with a black top. Its much much nicer in reality. It looks brighter in the picture. Its gorgoeus.

Thank you Ujjayi, I will look at those.

Greengardenpixie, that skirt is beautiful, just what I like. Going to order it now. Are Monsoon generous in their sizes as White Stuff are?

Try Boohoo.com huge variety of colours, dirt cheap but hold there shape after a wash.

I think I tried that monsoon cut in another colour and it was a bit too full- almost like a couple of big pleats at the front? It didn't hang flat (on me anyway!)

Greengardenpixie · 02/11/2014 22:44

The monsoon one defintely has no pleats and isnt gathered. If you know the white stuff skirts, its like that. Im not into having a full skirt at all.
