Wevez Women's ATS Tribal Dip Dye 25 Yard Skirt

I bought this skirt for a costume I'm creating to wear to a Ren-Fair and I just love it! I saw this same exact skirt and many of the other colors Wevez sells at a Ren-Faire last year but the vendor wanted $80 bucks for her skirts and was not sure if that was a good price or not, so I looked at the tag saw it was by Wevez and found it here on Amazon for half the price. Needless to say I did not buy from the vendor and purchased it online instead.Yes the fabric is thin and I can see where others might have issues with tearing should you be a bit rough in wearing or laundering this item. But this type of skirt is intended for belly dancing, not rodeo riding, so keep that in mind; if you are looking to purchase an every day "wear and tear" type skirt, this may not be for you. Those looking for a fluffy, full skirt for a special occasion or costume dress-up, it's really lovely. You may want to keep in mind that an underskirt or leggings might be needed for modesty in bright light conditions. Also, wearing an underskirt with this on top will also cause this skirt to be even fuller in appearance since the under skirt will keep the "fullness" from hiding between your legs as you walk and move around. Many times when I wear costumes I have multiple underskirts to give the top skirt more definition and shape - that's how the ancestors did it and it still works wonders today.My skirt came tightly twisted and wrapped and I noticed that there was significant possibility of dye transfer with the blue portion of this skirt, so I choose to wash it to eliminate excess dye that might still be on the material. (don't want this to transfer to other clothing items, my hands or items I might sit on while wearing it). I choose not to Dry Clean it, instead I washed the skirt by itself in cold water and placed the skirt inside a super-large netted lingerie bag to avoid strain on the fabric since I wanted to avoid accidental ripping. This process worked great in keeping the skirt from being damaged in the wash. I was shocked at how blue my wash water became so I double rinsed the skirt and ran it through the wash a second time. The was water was still slightly blue but significantly lighter the second time round. I double rinsed agian and removed the skirt from the mesh lingerie bag, shook it out and let it air dry, fluffing it out occasionally as it dried. The colors are still intense and vibrant and there was no shrinkage using this method. The skirt still brushes the tops of my feet, just like it did when first I pulled it out of the package and shook it out.I'm 5'4" tall and wear a size 16 (XL) and it was plenty roomy for me to get it on and off. My waist in a corset is 32" but my hips are 48" and I had no problem getting this skirt up over my hips. I even measured the skirt waist fully stretched and it will clear up to a hip size of 54" and as you bigger girls know our problem is not so much waist size on these skirts but knowing if a skirt will clearing our hips and booty. No problems here on that count. Even though I'm on the short size, I'm short waisted in the trunk but have average length legs. My Pant inseam is 29-30" and my skirt worn at my natural waist (not at my hips) after washing hits me at the top of my feet, the perfect walking length without danger of dragging or stepping on the hem. This would be too long if I tried to wear it on my hips but works great at my natural waist line which is where I want it to be since I'll be wearing a corset over it for my costume.So all in all, I'm thrilled with this addition to my costume collection. I love the bright colors, the fluffy fullness of this skirt, which will be even fuller since I'll be wearing petticoat under skirts with it. The fact that the elasticized/drawstring waist will allow me to wear it through a variety of weight gain/loss scenarios that might happen in the upcoming years is also a win-win.I've included some photos for you to see the skirt I was sent. The first two photos of the skirt hanging were not taken with flash and the color looks a bit muted. The photo on the dummy with the funky belt was taken with a flash and shows the true color of the skirt I was sent. The photo with the brocade over-skirt gives you an idea of what the skirt has the potential to look like as part of a costume with 1 black petticoat under it. I did not want to give you a wrong impression of the skirt by adding too many under layers but normally when I'm in costume I've got lots of under-layers so my skirts are really pop out full. I think I'll be buying a second 25 yard skirt to use as additional petticoat or to double up with this one so I can pull up the sides of the top skirt and have the colors of the second skirt peek out under it - what fun.

I'm a guy who needed a long, black skirt with personality to wear on stage in my spooky punk band about a year ago, and luckily I stumbled across Wevez's offerings here on Amazon. Since then I've purchased more colors that have all become treasured pieces of daily wear. Nearly floor length on me and quite luxuriously full, these skirts swirl and cascade in a way that brings a smile to the inner warrior goddess. A couple of care-related thoughts:- Though hand-washing is likely preferable, I cheat and run them through the wash in a large lingerie bag, cold water, very mild detergent, gentle setting. I also tend avoid running the skirts through the complete wash cycle-- I only do enough to get a basic, simple wash for a few minutes and enough of a rinse to get the soap out without losing too much dye.- I never run them through the dryer, line dry only.These skirts have a way of bringing an elegant flourish to the most mundane affairs of the day. They even turn a simple trip to the store to buy kitty litter into a grandiose, regal event, where one is showered with compliments from admirers. The inner warrior goddess approves!Update May 2019: I have well over a dozen different 25-yard skirts from Wevez and have pretty much lived in them daily over the last few years. In warm weather they swirl and flourish breezily with ease, and when layered together in colder weather with a second Wevez skirt as a petticoat they're quite drapey and snuggily. My care instructions above still stand, but if a major spill is involved I'd recommend going the dry cleaning route. In short, I love these skirts dearly. They're the swirling, flouncy elixir I never knew I needed, and I'd recommended them to anyone who needs some flourish and adventure in their life.

I wear a size 28 jeans and the skirt fit! A little tight around the butt, but the skirt is full and has great motion in the fabric. I followed washing instructions and there was no issue with dye bleed. The colors are beautiful and there is even an extra layer of fabric around the top where the color is light to keep it from being see through. The string in the waist also makes this extremely adjustable, my cousin wears a size 10 and she was able to wear it well too!

This picture is not quite right. The blue part is a brighter teal, the purple is more royal, and at the blend between teal and purple there is a nice bright royal blue. This picture does not do it justice at all! FAR prettier in person!! I wore mine for a gypsy costume with a royal purple and gold coin scarf around my waist. It was gorgeous and perfect. Very light weight, and comfortable too. I may end up wearing this for more than just costumes.I am a plus size lady (about 2X) and the skirt fit just fine, with plenty of room. The skirt fabric goes on for days!!! SOOOOOO much skirt!! It dragged the floor a bit in front on me, but that happens with most full length skirts.

I have ordered 3 of these skirts and will probably get more. The green and black, I've had to stitch a good bit, but I wear it most and have stairs, so I'm not surprised I've torn it a bit. I've also noticed my beige slippers have a green tinge to them from wearing the skirt. The red and black has no holes so far, but I also think it has less fabric for me to gather up to go up stairs. The purple and black one, I highly doubt will need any stitching seeing it doesn't hit the floor like the other 2. It is probably more practical for my everyday wear, but I like the skirts hitting the floor. This one also seems a bit snug on my waist, but nothing extra wear and tear can't fix I suppose

A wonderful skirt, very full. Needs something under it, as it's not completely opaque. So far I have washed it once on a 30 degree cycle with black items. It has faded slightly, especially the burgundy dye., so I would avoid washing it more than you have to (of course, if you are a millionaire you could try dry cleaning it like the label suggests!) However, it certainly isn't ruined completely by washing it. Fits just about anyone: very comfortable on me (UK size 22) and I reckon the waistband could probably stretch to another 6 inches, at least. Very flared right from the waistband, so unlike some 'one size' skirts it isn't tight on your belly if you are plus size. I'm 5'4" and it's just above my ankles when worn at my natural waist.

I got this when they were on sale and wouldn't buy at it's current price. However, the quality, comfort and fit of this skirt is superb and it's beautifully packaged on arrival.. The fabric is a little too stiff before washing and a little too sheer to wear without leggings. Having said all that, it's a truly spectacular garment and highly recommend any of these skirts.

Good.

Product is just as described. Super fast delivery, amazing customer service. Thank you!!

Muy bonita y adecuada. Colores tal cual las imágenes, cuidado con las dimensiones. Si lo quieres para danza tribal, deberías llevarte ésta de 25 yardas, no la de 12, pues te quedará algo corta para darle gracia a los movimientos. Yo mido 1.65 y he usado las dos, os recomiendo de 25Llegó en plazo y con un packaging más que adecuado.Viene hecha una bola, pero la gracia de la falda son los pliegues asi que debe de guardarse enrollada para que mantenga la forma.Ojo con no lavarla en lavadora o a mano o te quedarás sin ella, hay que lavarla en seco!Todo un acierto

The picture doesn't do this skirt justice. It's much richer and darker in color. I love the color. The package arrived much earlier than expected, in time for the beginning of ATS classes. This skirt will be perfect.

Dado el precio pensaba que la calidad sería mala, todo lo contrario está genial, nada que envidiar a las faldas de 25 yardas de precios muy superiores

Exactly as shown! Just perfect and so beautiful!

Eines meiner Lieblingsröcke zum Tanzen. Es hat eine wunderbare Breite, schwingt ganz herrlich und die Farben sind großartig. Zum Gipsy oder Tribal Tanzen ideal.

Der weite dünne Baumwollrock mit Farbverlauf im Saumbereich schwingt sehr schön und lässt sich je nach Geschmack oder Bedarf mühelos wickeln oder stopfen. Guter Grundstock z. B. für ein ATS-Kostüm.

Bella, ma un po' corta e delicata. Aspetto di provarla con la danza per verificare l' effetto che fa indossata.

Cómoda y con mucho vuelo. Aún no la he lavado pero tendré en cuenta que puede desteñirse. Estoy satisfecha con la compra.

La falda es impresionante!!!!. ATS total! Tiene muchísimo vuelo.Haré caso a la etiqueta de lavar en seco, pues los comentarios de otros usuarios aseguran que se va el color al lavarlo.

Esperaba más vuelo y más largura. Si mides 1,70m o más, te va a quedar corta. El material no es de buena calidad. Al menos no es muy cara.

Por el precio es una falda de ats muy bonita!! por decir algo negativo... que destiñe :S pero la tela esta muy bien y los colores degradados del teñido tambien, tiene mucho vuelo!
