Cotton A-Line Skirt - White

This is a lovely quality cotton skirt with a lining. It is still a bit see through. Even with nude underwear I felt I needed another slip. A young person probably won't worry about it but I'm over 50 & perhaps more conservative. I'm not tall, 160cm, but instead of looking like a lovely maxi skirt, the a-line is a very A. The width at the bottom is generous. I'm going to have to take the bottom horizontal piece off which is adding to the fabric spreading outward, and bring it in a bit so it drapes down rather than out. I also struggled to do the zip all the way to the top even though it wasn't tight, & the little hook I found impossible to do up without swiveling the whole skirt around. Overall I felt I needed to be a good 10cm taller for the skirt to look elegant.
