| Two-Pleat Plaid Midi Skirt: Choose this if you want a classic brown plaid A-line midi that sits at the natural waist and falls to mid-calf, with two front pleats opening into a gentle flare, a hidden back zip, and slit side-seam pockets. The woven fabric has a soft, slightly brushed suiting-like look with stretch (2% spandex in the polyester-rayon blend, partially made from recycled plastic bottles), and it comes in sizes 4 to 12 with a listed length of 31.5 inches (80 cm). Note that the fabric's soft, supple feel is the retailer's own description, and the skirt is a Contemporaine exclusive designed in Canada.[1,2,3] | Flared Textured Crepe Pleated Skirt: Choose this if you want a flared, A-line midi skirt in delicately textured stretch crepe, described as fluid and thick for an impeccable drape, with sewn pleats at the waist that add visible volume and a fit-and-flare style said to slim the waist. It suits shoppers who want practical details like slant pockets, belt loops, and a zip fly with hidden hook closure, and it comes in sizes 2 to 16 in Black, Hazelnut, and Navy/Midnight Blue, with 58% of its polyester made from recycled plastic bottles. Note that it is unlined, and at about 31.5 inches (81 cm) long in size 4, it falls roughly knee-to-mid-calf, with the hem showing slight natural waviness on the model.[4,5,6,7] | Pleated Structured Twill Flared Skirt: Choose this if you prefer a highly structured, flared midi skirt made of dense twill, which is constructed from 98% reprocessed cotton and 2% spandex. This style features a pleated waist, high-waist design, and slant pockets, accented by a wide stitched hem and A-line silhouette. Note that the structural nature of the fabric may cause slight gathering at the hips when the side pockets are utilized.[8,9,10,11] |

Two pleat plaid midi skirt
Love the fit, and the plaid. I was a little surprised it isn’t lined.
Nice plaid design
It’s soft, warm, and flattering. There’s some blue tones in person, but it still matches browns and olive green well.
New plaid skirt
Perfect for fall.
Belle jupe
Un peu trop petite.
