I am an hourglass and I have this skirt. I have short legs, so I actually had to have it shortened. In hindsight, I think I would probably have tried to go down a size and wear it higher at the waist, because now it sits on my hips, and it tends to shift around a bit as I walk. I really like the skirt though--that's my only complaint. It's good quality, and I haven't found an A-line skirt that I like as well.
Dani, I'm not sure where it will fall on you because you are very tall, but I'd say definitely give it a go. The quality is good and it's a nice, darker/medium colored denim and I haven't had any issues with dye ruboff.
