VERY J Two Tone Pleated Activewear Mini Skirt with Shorts — Fit, Fabrics & Care

How to measure

Measure your body (to pick the right size)

• Waist: Measure at the narrowest part of your torso (natural waist). Keep the tape comfortably snug, not tight.
• Hips: Measure at the fullest part of your hips and buttocks, with feet together.
• Thigh (optional): Measure the fullest part of your upper thigh if you plan to check shorts fit.
• Record measurements in inches or cm. (1 in = 2.54 cm)

Measure a similar garment (recommended if you have a skirt/skort you already own)

• Lay flat: Lay the skirt on a flat surface, smooth but do not stretch fabric or pleats.
• Waist (flat): Measure straight across the top of the waistband from edge to edge, then multiply by 2 to get the circumference.
• Hip (flat): Measure across the skirt about 1–2 inches (2.5–5 cm) below the waistband (where the skirt sits on hips), then double.
• Skirt length: Measure from the top of the waistband to the hem at center front and center back if lengths differ.
• Shorts inseam: Turn the garment to access the built-in shorts. Measure from the crotch seam down to the bottom of the shorts leg.
• Front rise: Measure from the crotch seam up to the top of the waistband.
• Allow for stretch: Active fabrics with elastane will stretch 10–30%—compare flat garment measurements to your body measurements and to the size chart.

Tip: If you are between sizes and prefer a more compressive active feel, choose the smaller size; for a roomier or layered fit, size up.

Materials & Fabric Details

• Shell (pleated skirt): Polyester/elastane knit (typical composition ~88% polyester / 12% elastane) — holds pleats, lightweight, quick-dry.
• Built-in shorts (liner): Nylon/elastane or polyester/elastane blend (typical ~90% nylon / 10% elastane) — smooth, breathable, anti-chafe.
• Waistband: Elasticated knitted blend with elastane for secure, comfortable fit and recovery.
• Gusset/mesh panels: Breathable mesh (polyester/elastane) in the crotch area for ventilation and hygiene.

Common fabric features: four-way stretch for unrestricted movement, moisture-wicking and quick-dry performance, soft hand feel, and durable pleat retention. Exact fiber content and finishes (e.g., anti-odor treatment) may vary by color and batch—please check the sewn-in label for the precise composition.

Model & Fit

Model info: Height 5'9" (175 cm) • Bust 32" (81 cm) • Waist 24" (61 cm) • Hips 35" (89 cm). Model is wearing a size S.

Fit notes: This is a mid-rise, mini-length active skort with a wide supportive waistband and built-in shorts for coverage. The pleated skirt offers movement and coverage while the liner provides anti-chafe support. Generally true to size — choose your usual activewear size. If you prefer a compression fit, size down; for extra room or layering, size up.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors. Turn the skirt inside out to protect pleats and trims.
• Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid bleach and strong stain removers.
• Wash the skort in a mesh bag when possible to protect the built-in shorts and prevent snagging.
• Avoid fabric softener — it can reduce moisture-wicking and breathability.
• Line dry or lay flat to dry; reshape pleats while slightly damp. Do not wring.
• If you must tumble dry, use low heat and remove promptly to avoid heat damage to elastane.
• Do not iron directly on elastane. To remove creases, steam gently or iron on low on the reverse with a cloth barrier.
• Spot-clean salt or deodorant marks promptly. Store folded or hung on a padded hanger to protect pleats.

Pro tip: After washing, hang the skirt while still slightly damp and smooth each pleat by hand to preserve crisp pleats and shape.

Style Tips

• Tennis/court-ready: Pair with a fitted polo or performance tank, white tennis trainers, low socks and a visor for a classic sporty look.
• Run or train: Wear with a supportive sports bra or racerback tank, lightweight jacket for cool-ups, and cushioning running shoes.
• Athleisure street style: Try an oversized cropped hoodie or sweatshirt, chunky sneakers and a belt bag—easy and modern.
• Summer casual: Match with a slim tank or cropped tee and slides; add sunglasses and a thin crossbody for a relaxed vibe.
• Cooler weather: Layer thin tights or leggings under the built-in shorts, finish with ankle boots and a long cardigan or utility jacket.
• Accessories: Minimal jewelry (studs, thin necklace), a sporty cap or headband, and no-fuss hair (ponytail or braid) keep the look active and polished.

Color/contrast tip: Let one of the two tones anchor your outfit—pair the stronger tone with neutrals or match accessories to the lighter tone for a balanced look.
