Ex Officio ExSential Skirt - Women's

Strange Waistband

By Ranked #919 - Women's Shorts March 9, 2009

I wanted a light-weight skirt for places where a pair of pants would not be suitable and besides a skirt usually feels more breezy. After really checking out the size charts and being horrified to find such a difference in size from my regular pants and skirts, I asked (Live Chat guys) re the size discrepancies. They couldn't tell me more than follow the charts so I did.
Just 5 days before leaving for Australia, my skirt arrived. I love the colour, truffle brown, and the feel of the fabric as well as the style until I tried it on. What a major disappointment! It practically fell off my hips.
My dear 89 year-old Mom said she'd buy it from me if it fit and it did the same thing to her at the waist. It hasn't any snugness at all in the waist.
So to make a long story short, I wouldn't order this skirt unless you have actually tried it on and know how it fits at the waist.
