Product Insights

The Athletic Stripes Balloon Miniskirt by Icône is an exclusive Simons design featuring a self-supporting bouffant silhouette from double-layer 100% polyester that remains opaque. Its elastic waistband runs true to size with stretch, and an adjustable elastic hem allows two lengths—a sportier micro-mini or a slouchier look—staying in place during movement. The balloon volume prevents ride-up and creates legroom but visually shortens the skirt to appear like a 12-inch mini, making it feel shorter. At $39.95, it is an impulse buy, but requires hand-washing and hang drying.

Verified claims

Waist comfort
Elastic waistband runs true to size with stretch for comfort.
Hem fit
Elastic hem holds the balloon shape securely and stays in place during leg movement.
Hem placement
For 5'2–5'7 wearers, the hem breaks at or above the widest part of the thigh.
Optical shortening
Balloon volume visually shortens the skirt to look like a 12-inch flat-front mini.
Movement
Balloon volume creates legroom and prevents ride-up, though volume makes it feel shorter.
Length adjustability
Elastic hem lets the skirt be styled higher for a sportier micro-mini or lower for a slouchier silhouette.
Design identity
Varsity-inspired athletic stripes give the skirt a sportswear identity, and the Icône by Simons label is designed in Canada and sold exclusively at Simons.
Design uniqueness
The varsity-inspired athletic stripes distinguish this Icône skirt from the solid crepe, sheer, and floral prints common in fast-fashion balloon miniskirts at similar prices.
Price value
At $39.95 (32% off $59), the skirt is an impulse buy.
Design distinctiveness
Canadian athletic-stripe mini with self-supporting bouffant stands out.
Care
Hand-wash in cold water and hang to dry; machine washing is not recommended.
Opacity
The double-layer polyester is opaque enough for active wear, including in the Patterned Red colorway, and needs no separate lining.
Construction
Double-layer 100% polyester creates balloon volume without extra lining while remaining opaque and allowing full leg movement.
Length
The skirt measures 14.5 inches from waist to hem, placing it in the upper-thigh zone on most adult frames.
