The skirt is cute but if you lift the part of your skirt it's very see through and baggy so you might want to cut the shorts and just put your own pair of favorite shorts

I bought this skirt for my very average sized 10 year old daughter. I bought the size 10-11 and it fits her pretty much just right, with some room to grow. The shape of the skirt is very flattering and looks really nice. It's a substantial skirt and not flimsy at all. I think this skirt would hold up to kids/adults who are hard on clothes.

My daughter is an anime/manga fan and she loves it for its look in that regard. I got the pink plaid and the black and they are both very nice. The pink plaid is not bright, but pretty muted, which makes it look extra nice. The black she can wear as a uniform skirt (if we return to the classroom in the Fall). It's a pricey skirt, but it's not flimsy. The shorts underneath are pretty thin and not snug, but they seem to do the job. We don't put the skirt in the dryer and it dries pretty quickly because of the poly blend. My daughter put on in the dryer by mistake and now it needs to be ironed, so I recommend just laying it flat to dry after washing.

If you are looking for a pleated skirt, I highly recommend this one!

UPDATE:
My child has been wearing these skirts regularly and they are holding up very well. They show basically no signs of wear. All of the seams are holding up well. The shorts underneath are nice, but a bit thin. On a thin person they are loose, so the wearer still has to be careful how they sit, if they don't want their underwear to show!

I still highly recommend these skirts. I just saw some pleated skirts at Target for the same price and I thought about how much nicer these are.

As far as washing--I know my daughter puts them in the dryer, but when I end up washing them, I leave them out to dry, just in case that will extend the life of the skirt. They have been put in the drying countless times, though, and still look great.

pretty sure I bought a 10-11, I was scared to purchase cause I'm small but I didn't know if it was TOO small and I do have a bit of weight on my legs. But it fit rlly well. I'm 5"1 and 105-115 lbs for reference. The zipper was a bit of struggle though .
