Long, not long enough

The skirt is a linen mix and the blue would soon fade, I thought. I ordered the long length, still felt too short. One more tier and a deeper dye would have made the difference.

          I wrote a very complementary account for the blue Matilda skirt, before wearing it for more than a day.I have now realised how fragile the decorative stitching is. Having spent some time repairing the embroidery I'm wondering why I ordered the brown version. Perhaps I subliminally like sewing and recapturing some inner creative essence... I like the concept, colours and length/fit of these skirts and as I purchased them in the sale I will probably hang on to them. However they're not the quality I would expect for the price. So disappointed and wouldn't purchase another.

              The linen feels wonderful against summer skin and the embroidery catches the sunlight and sparkles! Just what you need for a saunter along the prom.

                This is a very pretty skirtthat's beautifully embroidered. It will get lots of wear over the summer months. It's versatile and can be worn with a lot of different tops to dress it up or down depending on the occasion.

                  I love this skirt. It is light fun and stylish and in petite the perfect just above the knee length for my 5 foot frame. Also goes beautifully with the tie front cardigan.

                  Too light-weight

                  Inspired to send for this skirt as it looked great on model, but found the quality of linen extremely light-weight and feared it would crease even more than linen usually does. Skirt is lined but decided not to take risk. Sent for white which is creamy but coloured stripes would go with lots. Had ordered both petite and regular lengths, but only received petite, which was too short, above knee (I am 5'3'') and a blouse sent incorrectly instead of regular length, which should hopefully have been better. However, because of disappointing quality decided not to chase regular length and returned both items.
