I also agree that this skirt is an awkward length. I am 5'8" 140 lbs & ordered a size 10. It fit okay, but I felt the material with zippers was uncomfortable. The length hit several inches above my ankles, which for me, just didn't feel right or flattering.

if this will help, for those looking for a skirt that can do it "all". I'm 4' 10", 35-28-33,I nicely fit a size2,above my knee, or an inch above my ankle,rise is at my natural waist.

The material on this skirt is really nice but when it comes to being flattering, it just doesn't do it for me. I am 5'4 and 117 lbs and can wear almost anything but my husband said this skirt would not be flattering on anyone. I love all of the Contourwear pieces but would like this better if it was just knee length and more a-lined.

I love this skirt. I bought the black. It fits my curves really well and the fabric lays very nicely. The zipper is easy to use and the skirt folds up VERY small which makes it a travel must for me!! I would but another if there was a color I liked.

This skirt is made of really light fabric that is comfortable. It can be dressed up or down. The small slit in the front also allows for easy movement. I have a 41" hip measurement and I ordered a size 10, which fits nicely.

This skirt rides well above your bellybutton and is weirdly darted so that it kind of puffs out around your waist when you move around.

This skirt is perfect for travel. It washes and dries overnight. It can be dressed up or down and is so comfortable to wear. It is lightweight and causes no problems packing.
I will definitely buy the khaki number and maybe a top or two to go along with it.
Wore it through South America and Patagonia

I bought this skirt last year in my normal size (2) and returned it. The fit was strange, and the high waist was unappealing. The black fabric made a loud rustling sound and I was uncomfortable.

I have repurchased this skirt in Khaki, but this time I went up two sizes, to a 6. I wear it low, the same level as mid-rise jeans. The fabric is soft and quiet, and I have room under the skirt for a money belt. I am 5'8", and the lengths are just above the knee or mid-calf. Chic and smart. Love it.

I am about 5'8" an wear a size 8. The size 8 fits well but falls too short, its an awkward length. However, it will do the trick in August in Italy. When I want to enter the churches, I can quickly zip on the longer piece for a quick and appropriate change.
