"I've been looking forward to purchasing this skirt for a while, therefore it was an even bigger disappointment when i opened the package to find that it is not "chai" or even a light pink, it is pink! On top of that it is extremely sheer which some reviewers had already mentioned. I really wanted to love this skirt, the style is very unique but will not be keeping because of the colour."

"this skirt looks better in person and it's beautiful. i wasn't drawn to it until i saw fb pics from some fp stores. the crepe-like panels are ethereal.. they're light and the slits are unique and let the panels fly when wind blows. i didn't like the corset ties from the pics, but i find it very unique and interesting in person. this fits very high-waisted and tight at the waist. i sized up 2 sizes and it still fits high-waisted. the short liner skirt is more opaque than the panels, but still sheer, so i have to wear bike shorts underneath. it's meant to be calf-length, so even with my 2 sizes up, the bottom is still around my ankle and i'm 5'3"."

original....

"I find this skirt quite original! Love the side detail!
Unfortunately little too big for me...at the same time the waste belt was just right!?
The material- little too much around the hips and I looked larger!
It didn't really feel right.

pretty cute, but has issues.
2.1.2013
"so, i don't know what it is with FP sizing lately... i'm usually a solid medium on top with shirts and a 8 or a 10 on bottom. ((i'm 5'4" with approx. 30 inch hips and a 34 D on top.)) i ordered a size 10 in this to be on the safe side and i know this skirt is supposed to be high waisted, but the 10 hit me well above the belly button.. it was pretty tight. i think it would've been cute if it fit, but i'm so frustrated with FP's small sizing lately that i'm probably just going to return it instead of exchanging. i can tell the sizes have shifted because i have several different bottoms in a size M from FP that still fit, some are even a little loose.
overall, the quality of this skirt is pretty good. it is obviously very sheer so you may need a slip to go under the skirt (although it comes with one) or some fitted boyshorts.

"i returned this skirt. once i tried it on, it was VERY sheer, sheer enough to see my underwear thru the skirt and i didn't like where the long past of the skirt sat."
