In a word, the skirt is poofy. Pics speak for themselves. On the left, the skirt is quite poofy on its own without a petti, and on the right, I'm wearing a CP "everyday" A-line petti (the one with less poof). Needless to say, the skirt is quite poofy on its own and would be great if you need extra poof to a skirt on top of being a nice underskirt.

Construction wise, it's not bad at all, but there are some things which aren't perfect. The greatest gripe I have is with waistband, which is quite wavy and deformed? The waistband itself is not elasticated and has no give, and doesn't have interfacing which probably contributes to the wavy problem. The gathering seems okay, but seems a little uneven in places. Seams are finished and I'm rather pleased with how even the seams on the skirt are - tiny and quite neat especially on the chiffon part. I'm also really impressed with the pleating and ruffles- it's pretty even throughout and that's what pretty much contributes to the skirt being the way it is. There's a substantial cotton lining which is quite nice as well. The skirt's held together with a zipper and button combo, but the zipper doesn't really have enough give and I have to kind of wiggle it past the butt area to get it on. And very small thing, but there was one long trailing thread that I had to cut off.

The sizing is actually fairly nice. I specified a 65 cm waistband, which I thought would be too large but it turned out to be pretty perfect.

As for the color, I was expecting a more yellowy color, but the skirt's quite white. When I compare it to my petti though, it's actually a bit more yellow. So it's probably just me and my color retardedness thinking it'd be more yellow.

Overall, despite the flaws, I like this skirt quite a bit. I'd give it a 4/5 as an underskirt, but the weird waistband really downgrades it to a 3.5/5 as a standalone skirt.
