They're quoted as Asian sizing and run around two sizes below the actual measurements, so the UK equivalents above have been worked out from the centimetres instead: the smallest size fits a UK 8, not a UK 4. The waistband is deeply smocked and stretches beyond the figures shown, so if you're between two sizes take the smaller one and let the smocking do the work. Length is measured from the top of the smocked band to the hem.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSheer black chiffon released in four wide tiers from a smocked panel so deep it reaches almost to the hip, which is what gives the skirt its shape: nothing but a fitted shirred column at the top, then an enormous soft flare below it. The tiers are gathered rather than pleated, so the whole thing moves as one drifting mass instead of holding a fixed line.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e sheer tiered maxi skirt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e plain black chiffon in four gathered tiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRise:\u003c\/strong\u003e high, with a deep smocked panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e fitted through the smocked section, then very full\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTransparency:\u003c\/strong\u003e sheer below the smocked panel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOccasion:\u003c\/strong\u003e evenings, holidays, parties, layering over swimwear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e spring and summer, year-round for evenings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Style a Sheer Maxi Skirt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAll black is the sharpest version: a ribbed crop or a fitted vest, a small structured bag, flat black sandals or a low mule. A black slip underneath turns the sheerness into a deliberate two-layer effect and looks far more expensive than trying to disguise it. On fit, a deep smocked panel holds the waist and upper hip smooth and then releases everything at once, which is genuinely flattering on apple and hourglass figures because the narrowest point is marked and the volume starts below it; the caveat is that the panel is firm and sits high, so if you'd rather not have compression across the midriff, a plain elasticated waistband will feel easier over a long day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"The skirt edit","offers":[{"title":"028 hei \/ Asian S","offer_id":58397571645775,"sku":"14:193#028 hei;5:1983488807","price":66.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"028 hei \/ Asian XL","offer_id":58397571678543,"sku":"14:193#028 hei;5:1983652401","price":66.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"028 hei \/ Asian M","offer_id":58397571711311,"sku":"14:193#028 hei;5:1983488408","price":66.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"028 hei \/ Asian L","offer_id":58397571744079,"sku":"14:193#028 hei;5:1983488606","price":66.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/1162\/4015\/files\/Elastic-Black-Maxi-Skirt.webp?v=1786111422","url":"https:\/\/theskirtedit.co.uk\/products\/elastic-black-maxi-skirt","provider":"The skirt edit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
