Product Insights

Verified claims
- Natural waist fit
- Defined natural waist with structured waistband, sewn pleats at the waist, zip fly with hidden hook closure, and belt loops.
- Opacity
- The thick stretch crepe reads opaque without a lining in normal wear, including lighter shades like Hazelnut; very light or high-contrast underlayers could show faintly only in strong backlighting.
- Pleat maintenance
- Sewn pleats hold shape well and can be re-pressed by a dry cleaner.
- Length
- On a size 4, the skirt measures 31.5 in / 81 cm—a mid-calf length that provides more coverage than the 22-inch hem of Princess Polly's $54 USD pleated midi.
- Construction
- Sewn pleats at waist, zip fly with hidden hook closure, slant pockets, and belt loops.
- Matching Blazer
- Matching blazer (9718-229837) is available as a separate cross-sell, completing a two-piece suit under $300 CAD.
- Suit value
- Skirt and matching blazer total under $300 CAD, below typical $300+ entry-level suiting.
- Fabric drape
- The skirt is made from a delicately textured stretch crepe with fluid drape.
- Waistband style
- The skirt uses a structured waistband with sewn pleats, a zip fly, and hidden hook closure rather than a pull-on elastic waistband.
- Pockets
- The skirt has slant pockets at the hips—practical, visible pocket openings rather than hidden pockets.
- Sizing
- The waistband has no elastic and closes with a zip fly and hidden hook, so fit is governed by natural-waist measurement; Contemporaine's size chart lists natural waist as roughly 29 in (73.5 cm) at size 4, 30 in (77.5 cm) at size 6, and 31 in (80 cm) at size 8, so size up if between sizes.
- Seasonal weight
- The thick crepe is substantial enough to layer over tights for fall and winter, while its drape and breathability keep it wearable in spring; it is not a sheer summer skirt.
