| Puffy Tiered Miniskirt: Choose this if you want a short, puffy tiered miniskirt in lightweight 100% cotton poplin with an elastic waist, gathered tiers, and a scalloped lace-trimmed hem. The black version is listed in small and medium sizes, with a stated length of 12.75 inches (33.5 cm), so it suits shoppers comfortable with a very short, voluminous flared silhouette.[1,2,3] | Organza Tutu Miniskirt: Choose this if you want a voluminous, tutu-style miniskirt: it's a tiered, semi-sheer lined organza piece (100% polyester) with an elastic gathered waist, a full flared silhouette, a raw, feathery hem, and a 14.75 inch (37.5 cm) length. It comes in one size, in White or Baby Blue, so it suits wearers who fit a single-size cut and like a sheer, textured look with an opaque shorter lining underneath.[4,5,6,7] | Tone-On-Tone Polkadots Tiered Miniskirt: Choose this if you want a lightweight 100% cotton mini in Baby Blue with a tone-on-tone raised polka dot texture and gathered ruffle tiers that create a flared A-line silhouette. The elastic waistband offers easy, comfortable fit, and the built-in shorts lining adds coverage under the short length of about 15.25 inches (39 cm). It comes in sizes SMALL and MEDIUM, though the listing doesn't specify which size the stated length applies to.[8,9,10] |
