Length is taken at the longest point, which is the pleated overlay; the shorts underneath sit slightly shorter. Allow a 0.4–1.2 inch (1–3 cm) tolerance and size up if you're between two rows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAn asymmetric skirt only works if it commits, and this one does — knife pleats fall across one hip while the opposite side stays flat and hard-edged, so the two halves argue with each other in the best way. Silver studs march across the waistband, a zip runs down one side, and underneath it all sits a proper pair of built-in shorts. It's the kind of piece that does the heavy lifting while the rest of the outfit stays plain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e asymmetric pleated skort with built-in shorts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e mini, 13.8–15.0 inches at the longest point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e black with silver-tone hardware\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e high waist, pleated overlay on one side, flat panel on the other\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetail:\u003c\/strong\u003e stud trim across the waistband, side zip fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOccasion:\u003c\/strong\u003e gigs, club nights, festivals, everyday alt wear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e all year, layered over tights or fishnets in winter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Style an Asymmetric Skirt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLet the skirt be the loudest thing you're wearing. A cropped long-sleeve or a plain band tee, fishnets or opaque tights, and platform boots or chunky Mary Janes — that's the whole formula, and adding more competes with the pleats. Silver jewellery picks up the studs. In terms of shape, the one-sided volume is genuinely useful on straight and athletic frames because it builds asymmetry where there isn't much, and it reads sharpest on smaller hips where the flat panel stays flat; if your hips are fuller, the pleated side will sit softer and rounder than it does on the model, which is a different look rather than a worse one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this a skirt or a skort?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt's a skort — there are proper shorts built in underneath the pleated overlay, not a token liner. That means you can move, dance, sit on the floor at a gig or climb stairs without thinking about it, which is the whole reason to choose this over a plain pleated mini.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow short is this asymmetric mini?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt measures 13.8 inches on UK 6–8 up to 15.0 inches on UK 18–20, taken at the longest point of the pleated overlay. That's high on the thigh on most people, and the shorts underneath sit a little shorter still, so this is a genuinely short piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich size should I order?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nMeasure your natural waist in inches and match it to the chart, since hip measurements aren't supplied and the waistband is the fixed point. Take the larger size if you're between two rows, and remember the side zip means there's no stretch to fall back on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"offer-template-0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"The skirt edit","offers":[{"title":"XS","offer_id":58324211695951,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:100014066","price":15.13,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"S","offer_id":58324211728719,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:100014064","price":15.22,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":58324211761487,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:361386","price":15.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":58324211794255,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:361385","price":15.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":58324211827023,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:100014065","price":15.67,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXL","offer_id":58324211859791,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:4182","price":15.86,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"XXXL","offer_id":58324211892559,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:4183","price":15.91,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"4XL","offer_id":58324211925327,"sku":"14:193#704-HS;5:200000990","price":16.01,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/1162\/4015\/files\/Asymmetric-Gothic-Black-Skirt.webp?v=1786110773","url":"https:\/\/theskirtedit.co.uk\/products\/asymmetric-gothic-black-skirt","provider":"The skirt edit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
