If you are between two sizes, I'd suggest going smaller. When I was wondering about this the clerk advised the smaller size and was right. Looking at the fabric content, I suspect the second one without whiskering is more stretchy (21% elasticine compared to 2% lycra).<br /> I may return mine this weekend if the denim skirt at Nordies is a good fit. The BR fits very nicely but I'd prefer it to be an inch or so longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54233 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 14:55:29 +0000 julijuli 54233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lee, I tried that one on too. It's OK on me but not great. I want to really love the skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54218 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 12:51:06 +0000 Lee Hovey 54218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't speak about the BR ones because BR is typically out of my current price range (sad face), but I tried this one on at the gap and it fit like a dream!! I plan to buy it when it goes on sale. (I am an hourglass with pear tendencies)</p> <p><a href="http://www.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=5727&#038;pid=638509" rel="nofollow">http://www.gap.com/browse/prod.....pid=638509</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54207 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 10:41:06 +0000 NancyJ 54207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the first skirt from last year and like it altho I feel self conscious with my pear shaped lower half in a pencil skirt. What I did notice between the two is that first one is listed as about one inch longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54191 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 04:39:07 +0000 marianne 54191@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried the second skirt (without whiskering) in OR. It's very nice and I'd say consistent with their sizing. It also comes in white denim. The store also had the whiskered one, but I haven't tried it. Probably not much help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54185 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 03:15:00 +0000 julijuli 54185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok - I thought that's what you would advise! At least I know I'm on the right track. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54179 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 02:34:12 +0000 Angie 54179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, I meant have the style WITHOUT the whiskers altered if it doesn't fit. Hard to say about the whiskered style. My suggestion would be to go for a style without the whiskering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54170 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 02:11:11 +0000 julijuli 54170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No, the whiskered one fits - but I thought it wouldn't be right because the whiskers hit right at my hips. Do you think it would work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54143 Fri, 13 Mar 2009 00:26:58 +0000 Angie 54143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At this stage I am unsure about the difference in fit Julie, but I’ll keep my eyes peeled. Also, if the style without the whiskers does not fit as well, you could have it altered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-if-these-2-br-skirts-fit-differently#post-54137 Thu, 12 Mar 2009 23:39:30 +0000 julijuli 54137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went to BR today and tried on this skirt which I really loved EXCEPT for the whiskering at the hips. I'm pretty sure that's not good for my body type...</p> <p><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?searchCID=25789&#038;pid=627576&#038;scid=627576002&#038;vid=1" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....#038;vid=1</a></p> <p>I saw online that this skirt appears to not have whiskers but I think the fit is different - has anyone tried these both on and know if there's a difference? They didn't have this one in store for me to try on.</p> <p><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?searchCID=25789&#038;pid=627575&#038;scid=627575002&#038;vid=1" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....#038;vid=1</a></p> <p>Thanks for any help you can provide. </p>
