Qi-Point Heating Pad-Replacement Hydrogel Pad (3 Pieces)

I wear around a size 22, but I'm finding in formal wear, that has been equating to a 24 or 26 (if they are even made in that size by the finer designers). I ordered this in a 6x, and its just right around the hips and waist with a smidge of room that once I get shapewear on, I may have a tailor take in the waist a bit, but I didnt wan't to miss the mark and get too small. Trust the measurements they provide - they seem spot-on. I have a black tie event coming up in a month, and have been on the hunt. Once I realized a gown was going to be impossible to find that didn't leave me looking like a melted pile of pastel orange sherbet, I switched my perview to a fancy top and skirt. I could only find one other brand of skirt that fit the 'gown' billing in plus size, and it was ugly and had elastic waist. So I found this one in black and decided to give it a try.YOU GUYS! This skirt is absolutely stunning. The waist band is actually a band, the back zips up. Like a few other reviewers have said, from the seam of the skirt to the seam of the waistband the zipper is a no-go. It just hits that seam area and stops. Even off my body, laying flat it won't go. To me this isnt even enough of a problem to take away a star - I can sew eyehook closures on, or have it done when I get it altered. I ordered it rush delivery, so unlike others I wasn't contacted for measurements, but thats fine because I still didnt know what shoes I was going to wear. I'm 5' 4" tall, and there is plenty of length on this thing that if you were 6' I suspect it would work for you.The pleating is gorgeous, even without a crinoline for a little extra floof it doesnt grab my hips and then dip in - its remains a perfect A-line. The material is plenty heavy - not cheap feeling at all. The quality of the fabric is what makes this skirt just work.Shipping on the black skirt was incredibly fast, and it shipped from Kentucky. I did order the Claret skirt the same night the Black one arrived at my doorstep - because ya know...options!!. I'm guessing due to the uncommon color/size combo it needed to be made for me since they probably don't have it sitting there ready to go. I ordered it on the 8th and its not set to arrive until at least the 21st, so be aware that the ship times could take some time. This one is coming from Yiwu, China and today is the 16th and it just cleared customs in Shanghai.It's absolutely a gorgeous skirt. For a plus size person having trouble finding something to wear to a formal event, I honestly would buy this thing over and over again.

I ordered a medium and I thought it would fit but my sizing calculation was wrong. It is a very beautiful skirt. I think next time I order this item I will be opting for a XS.

This skirt is fantastic! It's all about presentation right? Well, it came in the package inside out! I appreciate that so much so the outside doesn't get messed up before wearing. My favorite part is the pockets and how versatile it is. I read reviews and ordered true to what I normally wear in pants and it was a little big. I had to send back and go a size smaller. The length is a little long but that was expected bc I'm only 5'1. Nothing a heel or hem won't fix. Worth every penny!

Ran too small. Returned easily.

Liked that it was perfect length. I'm 5ft 6in. Did not love the waist was wider than expected

*Update Below*(Original review)I purchased this skirt to wear for a special occasion coming up in a few weeks. I waited until the last possible minute to order my outfit (shame on me), and I was really afraid of it not arriving on time, or arriving but not fitting. Neither of those things happened!First of all, the company sent me a message quickly after I ordered, asking me if the measurements on the standard size I had selected were okay, or if I needed/wanted to alter them, as they would make a custom skirt for me (no additional charge) if I could respond quickly enough. I was able to send them my measurements and the skirt fits PERFECTLY!I was AMAZED at how fast it was delivered, especially considering it was custom made for me, ESPECIALLY considering it came all the way from Asia to the US! I think it was like right at a week between ordering and delivery. Seriously, shocked is the only word I have for it lolThe skirt is gorgeous, and seems to be very well made. The other reviews were correct about the weight of the skirt, but to me it just feels like that much better quality because of the weight. The pockets are amazing, and the zipper is even done nicely and doesn't snag. The hem is straight, and all the stitching looks really nice.I love this skirt. I've been wearing it around my house because it makes me feel like a princess lolI can't wait to wear it for real!!*Update*I have added photos!This skirt was unreal, it photographs so well and hangs beautifully. I am seriously so pleased, and if/when I ever find myself needing another full skirt in another color, I'll know exactly where to go :)

Would be very cute with a young, thin girl, but that's not me! I looked overstuffed with all the extra folds. The quality was good. No complaints on the product. Just not flattering for me.

I agree with others who have daid this looks like a much more expensive skirt. Beautiful color and fabric, customized for my large waist and shorter stature. Nice drape. Arrived on time. I have had mo problem with the zipper. I would buy this again with no problem.
