I gave this 3 stars because although it's a lovely skirt, good quality there's a few shortcomings. First it's just too heavy for our Ohio summers especially with the fake wrap feature. Also it takes a fair amount of effort to tie the fake wrap feature such that the bottom of the skirt lines up properly. I'll probably end up just sewing it together. Having said all that, it's first rate fabric & craftsmanship, good fit. This is the kind of clothing item you can have for decades & it still looks relatively new wash after wash. But I also only rate this a 3 because be forewarned that this company uses super snail mail for delivery so by the time the delivery arrives the party/picnic/holiday you ordered it for has long passed.
