Review on Stunning High-Waisted Pleated Skirts For Women'S Cosplay Costumes By Beautifulfashionlife by John Frazier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love this skirt! But be aware of the size you are ordering!

This is my absolute favorite pleated skirt I have ever bought! But, as other reviews had already mentioned, the ordering needs to be carefully reviewed!SIZING:I originally DID NOT take my measurements and ordered my usual size in skirts, which is between a small and a medium (I typically wear size 5 - 7 pants, leaning more so to the size 7). If you look at the sizing chart, the Medium is the Waist size (67.5 cm/26.5 inch). I returned it because it was too tight on me and ordered a Large. This one was still kinda tight on me, and I was concerned with the sizing.That is when I actually took my measurements and returned the Large and got the X-Large (75cm/29.5 inch). This skirt fits perfect and I really recommend this size to those who wear similar size pants like me. (If I HAD to be specific about which pant size this would be best for, I would go with a size 6.) For reference, I am 4'11 inches tall and weigh about 135 pounds. The fit of the skirt is so nice if you get your appropriate size and be mindful of the sizing chart. (I returned the skirts 2 times when I ordered wrong and had no trouble with the seller, so don't be afraid if it takes a try or two to find your fit.)Please keep in mind that the skirt is secured by a button and the waist does not really stretch! So, this is an area where the sizing matters because if it is too tight, it will be leaving a mark on your waistline. If you are good at sewing, you can always move the button for a more comfortable fit.STYLE:The pleats are exactly the look you are looking for if you are trying to cosplay or go for the uniform look. I had so much trouble finding skirts the preserved their pleats after being washed. If after a couple of washes you find that the pleats don't lay flat or aren't keeping their fold, I would recommend ironing them down with a wet handkerchief on top or a layer of some sort so as to not burn the skirt (this is just based on my personal experience, so take this advice with caution).The material is also really nice and good quality. It weighs against your body a little bit, very much like traditional uniforms. There are no shorts under or attached, which is typically my preference because I find that, when skirts come attached with shorts, they end up affecting the fit and look of the skirt. This skirt allows you to put on your own pair of spandex or whatever bottoms you like, if you don't want your underwear to accidentally show on a windy day, for example.I do want to add that if you are planning on getting the white skirt (or another lighter color), be aware that there is some minor transparency. The pleats kind of help for the most part, but if you are wearing dark or patterned underwear, it will show. I recommend either wearing nude or white underwear/boxer shorts if you find this a problem. The red skirt (and I assume other darker colors of this skirt) are not see-through.Overall, I really recommend this skirt. It is literally my favorite skirt, and skirts have been a typical part of my wardrobe for years! I have 2 colors so far and will definitely be buying additional colors in the future.
