Because we don't know if you wear your skirts High on the waist or low on the hip. These measurements are going to be different on you.
We give you the waistband measurement and length of the skirt, you decide.
SO BEFORE
ORDERING PLEASE MEASURE AROUND YOURSELF WHERE YOU WANT THE WAISTBAND OF
THE SKIRT TO SIT (picture shows hip-hugger 2"-3" below belly button)
THEN MATCH IT WITH OUR SIZES.
SKIRT LENGTHS ARE FROM THE TOP OF WAISTBAND TO BOTTOM OF HEM
SIZES; THE WAISTBAND MEASUREMENTS
(We try to get the waistband measurements as close to this as possible)
X-SMALL --Measures 28" around the waistband when fully closed. Skirt is 17" Long
Small ---- Measures 30" around the waistband when fully closed. Skirt is 17" long
Medium --Measures 32" around the waistband when fully closed. Skirt is 17" long
Large --- Measures 34" around the waistband when fully closed. Skirt is 17.5" long
X-Large ---- Measures 36" around the waistband when fully closed. Skirt is 17.5" long
Shorter and Plus Size skirts also available, see our E-Bay store.
The sizing for these skirts are not your regular Small, Medium, Large, 1X, 2X 3X 4X 5X 6X etc.
The reason for this is very simple.
In this day and age it seems every designer/manufacturer uses different measurements.
Most labels also “down size” eg what used to be a Large now seems to carry a Medium or even a Small tag.
(Vanity perhaps)
I’m sure you have clothing, same sizes with different labels and they do not fit the same.
We use an old method that seems to be obsolete these days. A TAPE MEASURE. Novel concept.
Remember a tape measure, whether in inches or centimeters does not lie.
Therefore
if you measure around the part of your body where you want the
waistband of the skirt to sit, whether around the waist, hip-hugger (the
picture shows hip-hugger) 2”-3” below the belly-button or low-low
rider, then match it with our measurements and If you’ve been honest
with yourself you will have a skirt that fits perfectly.
I hope this explanation helps you choose the correct size for your skirt
