This stunning maxi skirt redefines modern bohemia with its statement dropped waist silhouette — one of the season’s most coveted shapes. Designed to sit lower on the waist before falling into a fluid, full-length hem, it creates an effortlessly cool, elongated line.
Crafted from intricate cotton lace, the texture is the hero — detailed, breathable and undeniably elevated. The delicate embroidered finish brings depth and dimension, giving it that luxe, directional edge seen across this season’s runways.
A soft elastic waistband keeps the look relaxed and wearable, while the skirt is fully lined for complete coverage without losing its light, airy movement.
Style it back with a fitted tank, an oversized knit or a cropped jacket for a modern contrast. This is statement dressing made effortless — romantic, contemporary and designed to turn heads.
Length: 101cm
Fit: true to size
Ilona wears a size Small. She is 179cm tall with an 89cm bust, 66cm waist and 91cm hips.

Frequently Asked Questions
Real answers based on customer reviews
Fit & Sizing
Does this skirt run true to size, or should I size up?
Most reviewers found the sizing accurate and “spot on,” with several noting they initially sized up but ended up exchanging for their usual size. One customer who typically wears a 16 said the XL fit perfectly. If you prefer a less-snug feel around the tummy, some reviewers suggest you *can* size up, but many felt their normal size would still work.
Based on 4 customer reviewsIs the fit flattering, or does it cling in the wrong places?
Multiple reviewers describe the shape as very flattering with a beautiful drape and “feminine” feel. One customer sized up to avoid it feeling too snug over the lower tummy (though they felt their usual size would have worked), suggesting it can be worn either streamlined or slightly looser depending on preference. Overall, the majority feedback is strongly positive on fit and silhouette.
Based on 5 customer reviewsHow is the length—will it work if I’m petite?
One petite reviewer (157 cm / 5'2”) said they needed to shorten it, but also noted it was easy to hem on a home sewing machine. No other reviewers mention length, so petite shoppers may want to be prepared for alterations depending on the intended skirt length. The fabric and drape were still praised even after hemming.
Based on 3 customer reviewsMaterial & Quality
Is the skirt lined, and does it feel warm or heavy?
Yes—multiple customers mention it’s cleverly lined, which adds comfort and gives the skirt a nice weight. Reviewers describe it as warm enough for winter with tights/leggings and ideal for autumn/spring, but potentially a bit warm for hot summer days. The two-layer feel is frequently praised for drape and quality.
Based on 3 customer reviewsIs the lace itchy or overly “fussy,” or does it feel good quality?
Reviewers consistently describe the lace as high-quality and “luxury,” adding interest/glam without looking too fussy. Several customers specifically call out how feminine and classy it looks, and that it elevates the skirt. No one mentioned itchiness; the overall feedback focuses on softness/comfort and a premium feel.
Based on 6 customer reviewsComfort
Does it have any stretch, and is it comfortable around the waist?
Yes—customers mention there is some stretch, and several describe it as very comfortable and forgiving at the waist. One reviewer highlighted that the stretch made it easy to wear and comfortable enough to reach for repeatedly. Overall comfort is a recurring theme alongside the flattering fit.
Based on 3 customer reviewsPerformance
Does this skirt have pockets?
At least one reviewer specifically noted they didn’t realize it has no pockets and said pockets would make it better. No reviews mention pockets positively, so it’s safest to assume pockets are not included. If pockets are a must-have, you may want to confirm product specs before purchasing.
Based on 3 customer reviewsIs it a good skirt for winter (with tights/leggings), or is it too light?
Several customers say the lining makes it warm and a great option for winter when paired with tights or leggings. Others add that it’s also ideal for shoulder seasons like spring and autumn. One reviewer did mention it may be too warm for hot summer days, so it’s likely best outside peak heat.
Based on 3 customer reviewsStyle & Versatility
Can I dress it up and down, or is it more of an ‘occasion’ skirt?
Reviewers repeatedly mention it’s versatile and can be dressed up or down, thanks to the lace detail staying classy rather than overly formal. Customers also note receiving compliments when wearing it out, which suggests it works well for dinners, events, or polished everyday outfits. The color options are also mentioned as easy to style.
