This is a flared skirt made by a professional seamstress who remade a used dress. The waist is elastic. A decoration was added to the waist using leftover fabric. Hopefully, it will help to conceal any concerns about the midsection... Waist: Approximately 63 cm to approximately 80 cm Skirt length: Approximately 70 cm The thin, soft fabric is lightweight, and the vivid pattern is summery. It is not see-through. It's also cute for kids. A large-sized dress has been remade into a size M. Please understand that this is not a mass-produced item.
