I usually like a but shorter on me. But I agree try different footwear and what seasons you’ll wear if most, and also think, maybe this is a great opportunity for this longer length. When you try it on at home, you can try hiking it up just to get an idea. You may find you lose some of the specialness if shorter.<br /> The good thing is, you can wear it at this length right now and see how it works- because it looks great, you can’t go wrong trying it out, it’s more about how you feel about different lengths and proportions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081975 Wed, 04 Dec 2019 13:09:04 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 2081975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this skirt, and the length on you.

I would try it with the various shoes you want to wear with it and can always have it shortened (just a bit) after you wear it a while. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081894 Wed, 04 Dec 2019 03:15:32 +0000 slim cat 2081894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto on keeping that length and shrinkage possibility.

If it’s viscose, keep in mind it might shrink a little in the wash. Some of my skirts have come out shorter after washing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081831 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 23:49:02 +0000 Helena 2081831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a gorgeous skirt! My immediate thought was to shorten it a touch also - but others' comments have me rethinking.

I usually <i>can</i> get away with it, though, so that's good.</p> <p><b>notsaf,&nbsp;</b>most of my inspiration images on Pinterest were shorter, but not all of them!</p> <p>Oh&nbsp;<b>Suz,&nbsp;</b>good point on the stairs. &nbsp;We have three sets of them in this house, so that would old quickly.</p> <p><b>Angie!&nbsp;</b>Thank you, Queen Pedantic About Length. I didn't expect to see you here, but am so glad for it. I hope you're having a lovely visit with your Papa.</p> <p><b>Kellygirl, </b>I have more of a pear shape, which can be frustrating in my size range. A lot of larger sizes are cut for rounder figures with a smaller waist:hip differential.</p> <p><b>nuancedream,&nbsp;</b>I'm glad you're finding yours versatile. I think it will be a year-round piece for me here, so I should be able to get plenty of wear out of it before the trend passes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081824 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 23:11:16 +0000 nuancedream 2081824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this look, especially with the graphic t-shirt and the boots.

Glad it's a keeper. I do like some waist lines to sit lower--in general but that's because I don't really have waist.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081804 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 22:33:19 +0000 Angie 2081804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the length with the boots here too.

Otherwise, looks great. Very rocker glam </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081789 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 21:18:00 +0000 Janet 2081789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like the length, it has a nice dramatic flare. But I’m partial to those lengths myself, and I think you wear it particularly well — the length doesn’t overwhelm you and creates a nice proportion, especially with your boots. That’s a great skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081788 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 21:14:15 +0000 Jenn 2081788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Synne, I don’t have a sewing machine, but i could probably manage a couple of tucks in back by hand. If I’m going to hem, though, I’d just as soon drop it at the dry cleaners and let them do it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081782 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 21:11:21 +0000 Synne 2081782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I quite like the lenght! As for tailoring, have you ever tried doing it yourself? That's how my entire sewing career started, with a skirt sitting too low. Two neat pleats in the back, voila </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081780 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 21:10:27 +0000 Jenn 2081780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, that could be from the wrinkles. I should probably steam it and try it with various shoe options before making a decision. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081777 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 21:05:51 +0000 Anonymous 2081777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm - cool. I think I'd like to see it a tad shorter - it looks like it's somewhat uneven and hanging longer in front ..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081772 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 20:40:18 +0000 rachylou 2081772@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no. I think the length is fabulous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-leopard-skirt#post-2081771 Tue, 03 Dec 2019 20:39:26 +0000 Jenn 2081771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The leopard skirt I ordered arrived today, and I like it! Reformation is a sustainable manufacturer, and the viscose blend fabric turned out to be better than I imagined, so it’s a keeper. I need y’all’s advice on sizing though. </p> <p>The size I ordered rests just above my hips rather than higher up on my waist. I’m okay with that, as I don’t think the size down would flow as nicely over my hips, and it gives me room to partial-tuck a chunky sweater. However, that does make it a little longer than I expected. </p> <p>Do you think this length is okay? Should I get it shortened? Or should I risk sizing down? (It’s also a little wrinkly here from shipping, but not so much as to materially affect the length once it’s pressed, I don’t think.) </p>
