Hip measurements aren't supplied; on a close-fitting jersey shape the waistband is the fixed point and the fabric adjusts below it. Length is measured from the top of the waistband to the hem. Between two sizes, size up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe clever part of this one is the ruching. Soft marl jersey is gathered down one side into a vertical column of folds, drawn in by a cord you can tie tighter or leave loose — pull it and the fabric bunches higher, opening the split further up the thigh; leave it and the skirt reads as a plain fitted midi. One skirt, two very different lengths, and no decision required until you're already dressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e fitted jersey midi skirt with ruching and a side split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e midi, 28.4–29.5 inches depending on size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e grey marl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFit:\u003c\/strong\u003e high waistband, close through the hip and thigh\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetail:\u003c\/strong\u003e adjustable drawstring ruching down one side, opening a side split\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOccasion:\u003c\/strong\u003e everyday, city days, dinner, evenings out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeason:\u003c\/strong\u003e all year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Style a Ruched Midi Skirt\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the top half cropped and simple so the ruching stays the focus — a white ribbed crop, a fitted tee tucked in, an oversized blazer thrown over. White trainers make it daytime, a strappy heel takes it out, and a long coat over the top works all winter. The ruching earns its place on shape as well as looks: gathered fabric down one side breaks up the surface and skims the stomach rather than pulling flat across it, which makes this considerably more forgiving than a plain jersey pencil skirt. It still follows the line of the hip and thigh, so it flatters hourglass and pear figures most naturally, and the split adds a vertical break that lengthens the leg.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I adjust how high the split goes?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nYes — that's what the drawstring is for. Tightening the cord gathers the side seam upwards and opens the split higher on the thigh, while loosening it drops the hem back down for a longer, more covered look, so you can wear the same skirt two ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow tight is this skirt?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt's a close-fitting jersey shape that follows the body from waist to hem rather than skimming it, so expect your outline to show. The ruched panel helps considerably across the stomach, but if you'd prefer something that hangs away from you, a flared or A-line midi is a better fit than this one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhere does the hem sit?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIt measures 28.4 inches on UK 8 up to 29.5 inches on UK 16, taken from the top of the waistband. Worn on the natural waist that lands just below the knee on an average 5'6\" frame — and higher than that once you've pulled the drawstring in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAdjustable ruching, a split you control and jersey that moves with you — this ruched midi skirt is the one that works for two different evenings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"The skirt edit","offers":[{"title":"S","offer_id":58329485902159,"sku":"14:691;5:100014064","price":44.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":58329485869391,"sku":"14:691;5:361386","price":44.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"L","offer_id":58329485836623,"sku":"14:691;5:361385","price":44.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL","offer_id":58329485803855,"sku":"14:691;5:100014065","price":44.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/1162\/4015\/files\/Grey-Ruched-Split-Skirt.webp?v=1786110908","url":"https:\/\/theskirtedit.co.uk\/products\/grey-ruched-split-skirt","provider":"The skirt edit","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
