Customer Review:
I was looking for something to wear to a wedding described as boho/hippie/casual, and found this. I decided to take a chance on the colors, and I got really lucky. One side is the most gorgeous turquoise with a lot of orange, with gives this a wonderful tropical feel, and the other side is navy with some pink, and lavender. The material feels gorgeous, and I love the colors.
That said, I think the craftsmanship leaves something to be desired. I noticed a lot of threads hanging off this, and the stitching is not even everywhere. On the darker side, the fabric wasn't pieced together that well, so one piece hangs oddly at the hem--it's like it's longer on one side than the other so the hem not quite even and sags a bit.
I thought about sending it back, but then I wouldn't have it to wear to this wedding, so since it's only noticeable on one side (the side I like less anyway) I guess I'll keep it, but it would be nice if the sewing was better. Even though it's a reasonably priced skirt, I'd like it to be a bit better made.
Also, I thought I'd add a note about sizing. This is not as generous as some of the wrap skirts I have. I wear about a size 14/16 and this works, but I think if you were much larger of a size, you might not have as much overlap as you'd like. I don't think this would work well for true plus size ladies, unfortunately.
