Great looking skirt, seamed to about 3 inches beneath waistband and then soft pleats to bottom. A crinkle look to the fabric, looks like a satin or perhaps silk even. Self belt comes with skirt, wear it or not. MEASUREMENTS: Waist side to side 18-3/4 inches. Length from top of waistband to hem is 25 inches, so of course where it hits depends on your height. On myself at 5'4" it comes a bit below my knees. B100
