It falls straight rather than puffing out: the pleats stay readable standing, open as you walk, and close again when you stop. The length runs from 88 to 90 cm depending on the size, that is mid-calf to ankle according to your height.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSet-on waistband with belt loops, compatible with a fine belt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBox pleats all the way round, from the waist.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSide openings of the pocket type at the sides.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFree hem, discreet finish.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to wear it\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith a cropped or tucked-in top, to let the high waist play its part.

The detailed composition is not communicated by the manufacturer: we prefer not to invent it. The fabric is stated to be antistatic, anti-pilling and little prone to creasing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Machine wash at 30 °C on a delicate programme, inside out, in a net bag to protect the pleats. No tumble dryer: heat relaxes the pleating. Dry hung by the waistband, with the pleats set by hand. Gentle ironing at low temperature, or steam from a distance. No bleach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSize\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFour sizes, flat measurements converted to garment circumference. S: waist 64 cm, hips 86 cm, length 88 cm. M: waist 68 cm, hips 90 cm, length 88 cm. L: waist 72 cm, hips 94 cm, length 89 cm. XL: waist 76 cm, hips 98 cm, length 90 cm. Tolerance of 1 to 3 cm. The fabric does not stretch: go first by your waist measurement, as the hips are amply freed by the fullness of the pleats. If you are between two sizes, take the size up. The length is designed for a height of around 1.65 m to 1.70 m: above that, the skirt rises towards the calf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGood to know\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSuch a full skirt — won't it make my silhouette wider?\u003c\/strong\u003e The fullness starts at the waist, not at the hips, and the fabric is matte and fluid rather than rigid. It falls straight instead of puffing out. The high waist stays defined and narrow, the volume starts below: it is the contrast that structures the silhouette.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWill the pleats hold over time?\u003c\/strong\u003e The pleating is set on a synthetic suiting fabric, which keeps its shape memory well. The condition is the care: a delicate 30 °C wash in a net bag, dried hanging, no tumble dryer. On those terms, the pleats stay crisp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIs it too dressy for every day?\u003c\/strong\u003e The fabric comes from the tailoring wardrobe, but the cut is relaxed and the length stays easy. With a T-shirt and trainers, it is worn day to day. With a shirt and derbies, it goes to the office. It is the same skirt.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SQOCH","offers":[{"title":"S \/ black","offer_id":55283886719305,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ black","offer_id":55283886752073,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ black","offer_id":55283886784841,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL \/ black","offer_id":55283886817609,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"S \/ grey","offer_id":55283988169033,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"M \/ grey","offer_id":55283988201801,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"L \/ grey","offer_id":55283988234569,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"XL \/ grey","offer_id":55283988267337,"sku":null,"price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1027\/0782\/2921\/files\/jupe-longue-plissee-taille-haute-01_b8b948a8-ca77-4448-90ca-227b861615c4.jpg?v=1788857730","url":"https:\/\/sqoch.fr\/en-us\/products\/jupe-longue-plissee-taille-haute-2","provider":"SQOCH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
