Icebreaker Villa Skirt - Women's - 2011 BCS

I tried this skirt on at my local Icebreaker retailer and I have to say I wasn't super impressed. The quality is top notch, like all icebreaker items. I tried on both the black and the titanic, great versatile colors. My biggest problem with it was the design. I am only 5'2" and 100lbs and I felt like am xs in this skirt overwhelmed my body and made me look even shorter, if thats possible. I have the Icebreaker Zen skirt, which I love because it hits me right below the knee. This skirt, however, hit me right at the middle of my shin, so it is significantly longer. It also is more flowy than fitted, which made it look even more oversized. Could be great on someone who is medium to tall in height though!

I love merino clothing, and since I bought the first performance pieces, a lot of my everyday wear changed as well. This one will do well all summer, both travels, bbq's and everyday wear.
Haven't bought it yet though, since I prefer skirts 2 inch longer than this one (but i'm 5,10). This one hit bottom of my knee, and i prefer skits to hit at the wides point of shin.
Tried on both L and XL, the L fits! L is my normal size in bottoms, but I sometimes use XL to get a lower waist fit - and that way a better length, but this piece in XL slides of almost instantly, so don't size up!
