This is a very flattering skirt with a fitted waist band and a shape that is straight but not pencil. It is made from chiffon in fun black and cream poka dot. It has a frill under the waistband that continues down to the front of the skirt. It is a really versatile skirt- you can easily dress it up or down for summer - great in winter with a white shirt or poloneck jumper tucked in, black tights and boots. It is fully lined and fastens with a concealed back zip.
