Amazon Essentials Women's Ponte Pull-On Above The Knee Fitted Pencil Skirt - Stretchy Office Work Skirt for Business Casual & Professional Wear

Hopefully and this value-priced Amazon Essentials skirt will be offered again in a full range of colors and sizes. I was able to order the only ones left in a burgundy red and a beige (apricot?) color.This skirt is flattering, even on larger women. It's design, fabric quality, and quality workmanship can make it a timeless staple in your closet. Paired with a silky top, like the one available on Amazon, and a jacket, this skirt is versatile enough to take you from office or church to evening wear.This skirt is true to size. I have 45" bust, 40"waist, and 50" hips. I ordered a XXXL. I am 5'2" tall and short-waisted. There's no zipper to deal with, instead there is a comfortable, thick elastic waistband.The skirt's fabric is a mid-weight ponte' (double) knit that molds to the body but is not clingy. It has a "kick" pleat at the back hem to allow for comfortable walking and sitting. The fabric is thick enough that it is not see-through and does not show ridges from under garment.Though this pencil (straight) skirt is pictured and described as "knee length" most online buyers know that knee length isn't the same for everyone. The skirt hem is turned up an inch and machine double stitched. After receiving this skirt, I anticipated hemming it up about 3 to 4 inches. For this review I measured the skirt length before and after machine laundering and drying on delicate. I was surprised to find the skirt had shrunk 3.5" to 22.5" in length. My photos were taken after shrinkage, which is about 1.5" too long on my frame.The photos of the beige skirt is shown paired with a color matched Grace Karin sweater for a polished, professional outfit.
