“This was the first Shakira style skirt I bought with the ruffles in the back. I consistently wear a size 1 in the skirt/leggings combo, if I want my skirts a little bigger I have bought a size 2. After reading the reviews saying the skirt fit small, I ordered the size 2. The skirt was tight, even with the normally larger size. Unfortunately I pulled off the tags, not thinking it would not fit, Dona Jo was excellent and swapped the skirt out for me to a size 3. The size 3 is way too big so the sizing is just off but their customer service is excellent!!”
“The skirt is cute, fits well. I am tall and thin, wear the small size. The material is very heavy and hot. I live in a warm weather state and will not be able to wear it during the spring and summer. It is just too bulky for me.”
“The ruffle in the back is super cute. I get lots of compliments. I like it because I get a little extra in the booty but it’s flat in the front...very flattering. The only thing I don’t like is the drawstring in the waist...it doesn’t seem necessary. I wish the waistband was similar to the Flirty Skirt or the Jo Jo skirt. That said, I love this skirt and look forward to a purchasing a different print in the Shakira. It’s definitely one of my favorite styles in the Dona Jo skirts”
“Love the bouncy ruffles in back - and it's versatile for several combinations of tops. I also like the fit of all Dona Jo skirts (I have 4 different ones now!), including the wide waste band. I wasn't sure on my first one about sizing, but it fits great (I wear a size 1). I usually wait for a sale since they can be a little pricey, but they're worth the expense. (Remember to hand wash and hang dry.)”
