Compared within this brand.
| Golden-Button Velvet Mini Skort: Choose this if you want a black velvet mini skort with a fitted high waistband, a straight hem falling above mid-thigh, and two vertical columns of round metallic gold buttons at the front. It suits those drawn to soft velvet with a smooth, low-sheen finish, though note the front and back pockets are trompe-l'oeil styling and the rear welt openings appear as narrow slits, so treat them as decorative. It comes in sizes X-Small to X-Large; on the size Small sample, the front rise measures 11.25 inches and the inseam 2.25 inches.[1,2,3,4] | Checked Side-Tie Mini Skort: Choose this if you want a plaid mini skort with a wrap-style look, featuring decorative side-tie bows, an A-line silhouette with a front pleat, and a hidden back zip. It is made of soft brushed twill with recycled polyester and has a thin satiny lining. Note that it is a true mini—on the model the hem sits slightly above mid-thigh, and in size small it measures about 12.75 inches long with a 3-inch inseam—so check the length if you prefer more coverage.[5,6,7,8] | Faux-Suede Wraparound Mini-Skort: Choose this if you want a mini skort with a wrap-style overlapping front and a suede look — the faux suede has a velvety feel, sits at the natural waist with an A-line silhouette and side split hem, and the small size measures about 14.5 inches long. It is made with recycled polyester, has a full thin lining, and closes with a hidden side zip, in Tan or Chocolate/Espresso across XS to XL. Note that while the listing describes front slit horizontal pockets, a close look suggested the front welt openings appear non-opening or shallow, so treat pocket usefulness as uncertain.[9,10,11] |
