Really a maxi skirt, even on me at 1.80 m tall it still reaches down to my ankles when worn hip-high. The size is stated as 38-42, but thanks to the adjustable waistband, i.e. (here gsd sufficiently loose!) elastic band with tie, the skirt still fits me with my clothing size 46/48. However, I have to pull it a little higher at the front on the stomach than at the back - because with a normal fit I unfortunately have the effect `short at the back and longer at the front` - because I also have a lot of bottom. The skirt is pleasantly wide overall, the fabric is unfortunately a bit tight and stiff; the workmanship is good overall - and I really hope that the mandala prints survive the wash...
