A third customer said: "Bought this skirt for work, needed something cool but still looking smart. Hasn't disappointed. Love it! Very easy to maintain ie no ironing. Have had lots of compliments." One reviewer noted the lack of pockets, commenting: "All it's missing are some pockets which would have earned it five stars."
