I was not successful with this skirt. It's too bad because the quality of the fabric is excellent: a nice, medium-weight material in a beautiful steel blue grey. The skirt flows out in a perfect a-line, hits at the knee & has capacious pockets. I was so excited but when I put it on, the fabric clung to my little belly pooch under the waistband & made me look a little lumpy. Even the skin above the waistband was pinched a little. I suppose if I really wanted to do so, I could wear spanx or a girdle underneath but I don't want to have to do that for a non-special occasion piece of clothing. It's probably cute for someone, but not for me.
