Rating: 4.0 (73 reviews)

I wore this skirt a lot - the wash is really light (almost a gray/blue) so it's a different denim effect than typical blue or black.  My office allows jeans, and I found it easy to dress up for business casual OR to make it a casual weekend errand go to.  It does fit a bit slim around the hips, but it's not constraining, and the gentle A-line cut is very flattering.  The slit in both front and back makes it really comfortable as well and relieves some of the stiffness of a heavy denim skirt.  Comes with a skinny self belt that is sewed in at the back, so if I owned it I would probably remove that to allow other accessory options - but gives it an easy way to finish during rentals.  My rating approach: (5=LOVE LOVE; 4=Will rent again, a couple of details I would change; 3=Works but meh; 2=Won't rent again, but may work in some cases; 1=This should be burned). I am on RTR to try new styles and find sizes for my post-menopausal weight/body shape.

I like don’t love it. Based on reviews, I sized up from my usual 6 to an 8 and I’m glad I did. I'm 5'7", 143 lbs, hourglass shape with a round belly—size 8 fits perfectly.

Pros:
•Great design details: raw side seams, belt, defined waist, and textured denim
•Pretty light blue-grey color
•Front and back slit makes walking easy
•Hits mid-calf on me

Cons:
•Seams curl after wearing (I ironed it)
•Wrinkles easily (noticed after running errands)
•Rigid denim and snug waist make getting in/out of the car uncomfortable
•Slit rises high when sitting—might not be work-appropriate
•Not very forgiving around the belly; I felt better wearing Spanx. 

Hope this helps!

Paired with sneakers for walking around The Met museum.  Perfect and comfy

It’s a great light blue/grey color and lightweight denim - perfect for warmer weather.  Flattering cut and length for a petite with curves.  

The skirt is heavy and didn’t fall well. The smaller waist with thick material didn’t let it fall well and so I felt constrained. 

Fits tts/maybe slightly large; I went with an 8 to be safe, since there were no reviews at time of rental-  and could have sized down. It was comfortable to wear for a date night and my husband liked it a lot. As others have said, the material is thick and a bit stiff. It took only 60 seconds to steam/dewrinkle so it would be great for traveling. The skirt hit me mid to low shin and I have a 34” inseam. Great fit for the tall ladies! 

The waist was too small for me, but it looked nice.

Great skirt. Easy to walk in thanks to the front and back slit. 

Cool and different with seaming details. Pays well with white because if the thread color
