The tubes people are posting are similar enough to a pencil skirt I have that I might try again with it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jealous-of-your-tube-skirts---help#post-2199679 Wed, 02 Jun 2021 05:38:39 +0000 Bijou 2199679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenna - Angie is always amazing at identifying the perfect hem length so posting pictures and getting her advice is really useful in sorting out length details.

And you can ABSOLUTELY rock them at a midi calf length! I have a few clients your height who do just that.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jealous-of-your-tube-skirts---help#post-2199519 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 16:53:52 +0000 Tanya 2199519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenna, another warm welcome to the forum from me.</p> <p>I am not petite, but remember that VC skirts use to come in petite - I think one of mine actually is.&nbsp; &nbsp;I would browse Nordstrom's petite section, and consider alterations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jealous-of-your-tube-skirts---help#post-2199515 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 16:47:29 +0000 DonnaF 2199515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m 5’1” with short legs, and recommend looking for a skirt sold in a Petite size or that can be easily shortened. This one is Vince Camuto purchased a size up to be less clingy and altered to tighten the waist. I bought another VC tube in a different fabrication in a Regular size but it too had a raw hem so it was easy to hack shorter. As I’m sure you know, Regular size skirts can widen too low on the hips, but at least tube skirts are stretchy enough such that it’s not a problem. </p> <p>I think VC stopped making those tube skirts a few years ago, but you may find a bargain on the resale market. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jealous-of-your-tube-skirts---help#post-2199485 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 15:23:59 +0000 RoseandJoan 2199485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenna, welcome to the forum, we've had the kettle on for a while!</p> <p>I will leave your question to our petite friends but I'm sure they'll have you sorted in no time </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jealous-of-your-tube-skirts---help#post-2199483 Tue, 01 Jun 2021 15:09:19 +0000 JennaDubs 2199483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all!</p> <p>I have been lurking in the shadows here for more than a decade I think at this point…I remember finding this site during my college years if you can believe it (I can't)!&nbsp; During quarantine, I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about my wardrobe and am in search for a more cohesive style. I figured it was time for me to jump in and start participating in hopes of pinpointing what exactly I want to express with my style and maybe even find an aesthetic that is flattering (I think I am not good at this in particular).</p> <p> But before I figure all of that out, I was hoping to get some advice on a tube skirt!&nbsp; I’ve been searching for a couple months now and with all the recent posts, what better time than now to just dive in.&nbsp; I am 4’11” and have historically been hesitant to wear anything that hits below my knees because I always felt that aesthetic looked heavy on me. I’ve recently appreciated other shorties wearing various skirt lengths so I think my hem issues are probably due to the fit or style more so than the length. &nbsp;Wearing a tube skirt with sneaks appeals to me, so I think I will start with something on the more casual side.</p> <p>So fabbers, any recommendations on a casual tube skirt for petites? Which ones are y’all wearing, because they all look so good!!</p> <p>Thank you in advance and I hope to chime in more often here and there as I navigate this adventure that is my style journey : )</p> <p>Jenna</p>
