The waist is fully elasticated, so each size fits comfortably around the measurement listed. Between sizes? Go for your usual — the stretch does the rest.
Some pieces do the styling work for you, and this short black lace skirt is one of them. Layers of soft ruffles edged in floral lace give it real presence and movement — that Y2K-meets-gothic energy that turns a plain top and boots into an outfit with a point of view.
The silhouette is a flared A-line, cut above the knee, with volume that starts right below the high elasticated waistband — so it defines your waist, then floats away from the body without clinging anywhere. The blended polyester fabric has a slight stretch and holds the shape of the ruffles beautifully, and the empire waist means no zips, no digging in, just comfort from the first hour to the last.

How to Style This Short Black Lace Skirt
For the classic look: band tee, fishnets and platform boots. For something softer, a snug cardigan with Mary Janes turns the same ruffles balletcore. In winter, opaque tights, boots and an oversized jumper half-tucked into the waistband work perfectly — the volume below balances chunky knits better than any slim mini. The A-line shape flatters pear and hourglass figures especially well, and the short hem lengthens petite frames; just note the ruffles do add fullness at the hip.
