Is this skirt nice or not?

[Dingdong99]

I'd be grateful for your honest opinions

Husband isn't keen on this skirt and think it looks a bit cheap with the gold buttons and belt

I like it but not sure if it's nice or awful!

It suits you. I like it with the cardigan

I like it personally. You will always be able to get plenty of wear out of it too, as it is smart casual.

Yeah love it! Where’s the cardigan from? 😄

I really like it! What's the material? It looks like it just needs a steam? The colour looks fab.

Delia it's from Sézane - I have it in lots of colours, it's very useful and you can wear it back to front too

Tell him if he doesn't like it, he doesn't have to wear it

It's quite creasy material- this is freshly ironed!

It's a nice shape, it suits you, it makes a nice outfit as you're wearing it here. I can't see from this distance whether it looks cheap, but gold accessories in themselves don't make a thing look cheap, bad craftmanship and poor quality materials are the things that come most to mind when I'm wondering if a thing looks cheap. And from that frame of mind some quite expensive things can look "cheap".

Unless the gold is very obviously cheap-looking, I think it’s a lovely skirt and really suits you. I wouldn’t wear it on an outing to the local adventure playground with sticky-handed toddlers but for a nice brunch it’s perfect.

I like the style a lot, especially the waist. The material looks like it could crease easily though, how does it come out of the wash?

We are a no ironing house so I steer clear of anything prone to creasing on stubborn principle.

Edit - cross posted with you OP. The creasing would rule it out for me, I’m too lazy to iron and I’ve stopped buying lovely clothes which crease as they just linger sadly at the back of the wardrobe unloved.

I think its fine (I could never keep it clean for more than 5 minutes though)

I love it and it really suits you. I bought an almost identical skirt around 1982 but it was in navy. I wore it to death.

I like it, looks good. It doesn't look cheap to me.

It looks lovely on you. There will be many ways to wear it too, I think

I like the colour, and the pockets! Dont like skirts with buttons down the front, but you say you can wear it the other way round. Dont think the gold is too cheap looking, in the pic anyway. I doubt I’d wear it if it needs loads of ironing though..

I really like it. Where’s it from?

Same here. except mine was a tobacco shade. I love it and think you look really great.

It's not bad. We had similar in the seventies... I always felt scruffy in mine.

Awful 👀

There was actually a tobacco shade one too when I bought mine. I opted for the navy but I so wish I'd got both. It was one of the best skirts I ever bought.

Love it very trendy you wear it well

I like it. I like the pleat/tuck detail. Is the belt attached? If not, you could always wear it with a different belt to slightly change the style.

I think this looks well put together without looking like too much thought has gone into it 👍

It swamps you.

Yes, really nice.
