Urban CoCo Women's Elastic Waist Tartan Pleated School Skirt

I bought this skirt to complete a Mizore from Rosario Vampire cosplay. (The original skirt that came with it was cute but way too short for my height - pictured here is the Urban Coco yellow series.) Shopping for something specific on a budget is rough...but then I found this Urban Coco skirt!Based on previous experiences with online shopping for bottoms, I was a bit skeptical. However, this skirt style had a ton of reviews and most were positive. (The search by height or weight options made it easier to find the info I needed for it.) So I decided to take the plunge and ordered it!Here are my experiences with it.PERSONAL STATS - I am about 5'8" and currently weigh in at the 190s.SKIRT CHOICE - Yellow series, size XXLCOLOR - it looks yellow and black in photos, but is actually yellow and NAVY. If you are trying to match something to black, this may not work for you.FIT - I am a curvy gal with a pear shaped body type. I typically avoid pleated skirts for that reason, but found this one to be surprisingly flattering to my body type! The waist is SUPER comfortable because of the stretch band, which I LOVE! If my weight goes up or down a bit (still working on getting it down), I'm pretty confident that this will still fit me.LENGTH - This is where the description does not match up. Supposedly, this is a "knee-length" skirt. Not even close, but maybe I'm taller than they expected when they wrote the size chart. The ONLY way it reaches my knees is when I pull the waistband UNDER my belly button. When I wear it at a comfortable waist position, it still comes above the knees in front (and a bit higher in the back thanks to my booty). However, it STILL covers everything to my modest desires in this position! (No fan-service moments from this cosplayer.) Due to personal preferences, I will probably wear beige/nude leggings underneath to be safe, but most people are probably more comfortable in skirts in public than I am.SLIP UNDERLAYER - This part had me a little nervous based on other reviews. Let me start by saying DON'T TUG ON IT. It seems delicate and I dont want to rip it out by pulling on it instead of the skirt. Yes, it does seem to make the skirt fit a bit snugger inside, which is part of why I like it. Also serves as another, closer layer for modesty, which I personally enjoy because loose skirts flipping about make me nervous. I dont want my skirt to pull a Marilyn Monroe in the street with a strong wind (but maybe that's just me).SIZING - Because I'm very hippy (size 14-16 in womens mostly, or 17-19 in juniors) I chose the biggest possible option. Now, at walmart for example, I usually get women's XL in bottoms sized this way. However, I looked at the size chart and decided that the XXL was probably for me. I am SUPER HAPPY with that decision! The skirt fits me perfectly, not too tight, and a comfortable length for me. That being said, everyone has different comfort levels. Best suggestion is to look at the size chart and then compare that to reviews sorted by weight categories (which is what I did).OTHER CONCERNS - I don't know how it holds up in the wash, haven't tried that yet. Material is nice to the touch, not rough or bumpy. Beautiful and seems very well made! Pleats may have some bumps from packaging, but I'm not concerned about that for myself.OVERALL - I totally recommend the Urban Coco elastic waist skirt! When I have more room in the closet, I plan to buy at least one or two more colors for date night. This style has always scared me off, but this one makes me feel sexy and confident!

Perfect for my Scottish party! It looks really cute and is a good length! The slip is a little annoying, but not so much that it keeps me from wearing the skirt. The color is true to picture. This is perfect for a quality costume piece or just a normal skirt for school!

One of my twin girls loves skirts and these are one of her favorites. She is 14, hair almost to her knees, 5'0 tall, thick with curves. Muscular thick with flat belly. We are always looking for something that covers her buttocks properly. Teaching her self respect is important in today's world. This vendor is a keeper for us.We love the elastic waistband! It gives good stretch and she doesn't have to worry about suffocating after lunch. It looks decent and proper while standing sideways. We all know that with plenty of junk in the trunk, skirts tend to lift up high in the back! 💯The material is thick, the quality seems good. She tried it on with thick and thin leggings. 👌She also tried it with sherpa lining tights/leggings and they fit well too. There's no zipper!!!! 🥳 Not see through at all and ok for cold days here in New England! It's a skirt of course you will still feel it during winter months!She can dress up or down with this and still look kawaii cute and or like a Valkery warrior!I've ordered 3 total for her and 1 for myself. Mine have yet to come in so I can't rate that. If it was a little less pricey, I'd purchase all of them. 😍🤭😁FYI. One thing we love most is the length!!! It is perfect for her. It's still a little bit above her knees, kind of fluffy and definitely appropriate for her age & size. Not seeking attention nor trying to draw attention. She feels very safe, confident and comfortable. Please make more colors, I will return for more.*If you have OCD and stare at the stitchings you will hate it. Some will say it's not worth the price due to the sloppiness of that. If you can look pass that part, you're good.One of the skirt (white,purple, pink) arrived unprofessional so I had to send it back for a replacement. The threads were not in tact and coming apart in different areas around the skirt.

The slip under it is too short and doesn't stay put. Otherwise okay. I like that it's a little longer and size is as described, but there is no stretch at all in the fabric.

Good quality

Très bon produit... bonne qualité pour le prix. Couleur et taille confirme. Taille élastique et jupon sous la jupe de taille correcte. Je fais 1m68 et elle se situe juste au dessus du genoux.

Comoda y bonita
