Layered Mid-Rise Waist Active Skirt | Black / S 100100843995811

How to measure

Measure your body (for the best fit)

1. Mid‑rise waist (where the skirt will sit) — Stand relaxed. Wrap a soft measuring tape around the body at the point where you want the skirt to sit (mid‑rise is typically 2–3" / 5–8 cm below your natural waist). Keep the tape comfortably snug, not tight. Record the circumference.
2. Hips — Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat (usually 7–9" / 18–23 cm below the waist). Keep feet together and the tape level.
3. Thigh (for built‑in liner comfort) — Measure the fullest part of your upper thigh if you want to check liner fit.
4. Desired skirt length — Measure from the top of the waistband (where the skirt will sit) down the front center to the point you want the hem to hit (e.g., mid‑thigh). Note this when comparing to product length.
5. Ease recommendation — For active movement allow approximately 1–2" / 2.5–5 cm of extra room at waist and hip measurements depending on how fitted you like your activewear.

Measure the garment (if you have it laid flat)

1. Lay the garment flat on a smooth surface and smooth out wrinkles without stretching the fabric.
2. Waist (flat) — Measure across the top of the waistband from left to right and multiply by 2 to get the waist circumference.
3. Hips (flat) — Measure across at the widest point of the skirt body, normally about 7" / 18 cm down from the waistband, then multiply by 2.
4. Skirt length — Measure from the top edge of the waistband (front center) straight down to the hem.
5. Hem width — Measure across the hem from left to right and multiply by 2 to get the hem circumference.
6. Liner/shorts inseam — If the skirt has built‑in shorts/liner, measure the inner seam of the shorts from crotch to hem.

Materials (typical for this style)

Layered active skirts are made from technical knit blends designed for stretch, breathability and quick drying. Typical components and their benefits:

Main shell

Often a nylon/polyester + elastane/spandex blend (for example, ~78–88% nylon or polyester with ~12–22% elastane). Provides four‑way stretch, smooth handle, and shape retention.

Liner / built‑in shorts

Usually polyester or nylon with elastane (e.g., 85–92% polyester + 8–15% elastane). Lightweight, moisture‑wicking and supportive for coverage during activity.

Mesh or vent panels

Lightweight nylon or polyester mesh with elastane for breathability and targeted ventilation.

Waistband

Soft elastic or bonded knit with interior grip (silicone dots or tape) to help keep the skirt in place during movement.

Common fabric performance features you may see:

• Moisture‑wicking and quick‑dry finish
• Four‑way stretch for full range of motion
• Lightweight breathability and mesh ventilation
• Anti‑odor or antimicrobial treatments (to reduce post‑workout odors)
• Some versions offer UPF protection or chlorine resistance (check the specific product tag)

Model information

Reference model details (photography reference):

• Height: 5'9" (175 cm)
• Wearing size: Small (S)
• Model measurements: Bust 32" (81 cm) • Waist 24" (61 cm) • Hips 35" (89 cm)

Fit note: The skirt is a mid‑rise design that sits just below the natural waist and is engineered for active coverage and freedom of movement. If you prefer a more relaxed fit or plan to layer thicker tights underneath, consider sizing up.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Turn the skirt inside out before washing.
• Use a mild, sports‑safe detergent. Avoid bleach and detergents with optical brighteners.
• Do not use fabric softener — it reduces moisture‑wicking and breathability.
• Wash with like colors and close zippers/Velcro to prevent abrasion.
• For extra protection, place the skirt in a mesh laundry bag.
• Air dry flat or hang to dry. If you must use a dryer, tumble on low/air only — high heat can damage elastane and reduce elasticity.
• Do not iron elastic parts. If ironing is necessary, use low heat and a pressing cloth on non‑elastic panels.
• To remove odors: soak in cool water with a splash of white vinegar or baking soda before washing, then launder as usual.
• Store folded in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight; avoid hanging long‑term if the waistband is delicate to prevent stretching.

Quick repair & refresh tips: Use a fabric shaver gently for pilling, and mend small snags promptly to prevent worsening.

Style tips

• For the court: Pair with a fitted polo or racerback tank and low‑profile court sneakers for tennis or pickleball looks.
• For running or training: Wear with a breathable performance tank and cushioned running shoes; sunglasses and a visor complete the outfit.
• For studio or yoga: Pair with a long‑line sports bra and lightweight zip hoodie for warm‑up and cool‑down.
• Casual athleisure: Combine with an oversized tee or cropped sweatshirt and white sneakers for errands or travel.
• Cooler weather: Layer over fitted leggings or opaque tights and add a lightweight anorak or bomber.
• Accessories: Minimal jewelry, a sporty watch, or a slim crossbody keep the look functional and modern.
• Proportions: If you’re petite, choose a slightly shorter hem or tuck in a slim top to elongate the leg line; if you’re taller, a longer length emphasizes coverage and balance.
• Color play: Match neutral skirts with bold tops and shoes, or coordinate a colored waistband/trim with a cap or sneakers for a pulled‑together outfit.
