Pwy ydy'r tad Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I'm in the process of putting together a school uniform for an age play event and I was hoping to get some advice before I made any purchases. I always like to add a splash of colour to proceedings and have eschewed black and grey skirts in favour of burgundy/ maroon which has helped me narrow the prospects down to 2 (which is great because I'm not normally good with stylistic choices). The finalists are: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Girls-School-Wear-School-Uniform-Girl-6-Pleat-Secondary-School-Skirt-Skirts-New-/272114017773?var=570922908699&hash=item3f5b4265ed:g:Qr0AAOSwqYBWo~jh http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Girls-School-Uniform-Box-Pleated-Elasticated-waist-school-kids-Skirt-Age-2-18yrs/182021811782?_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851&_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIC.MBE%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D37256%26meid%3D7345a0917e8543bab8bebf2dc4a77701%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D6%26sd%3D291792474492 I'm about 5'9'' with a slight frame (although a bit of a belly) and usually wear 32' trousers. I like the first one but I'm unsure about the size, they sound like they should fit but given the sizing range I have some concerns. Surely I can't have the waist of a 13 year old? As for the second, it seems a safer choice but I'm a little confused regarding the relaxed and stretched length so any advice as to which one I should be going for would be much appreciated. Or should I just get the biggest and be done with it? Also a point of concern I usually wear a pink wig, that won't clash will it? Thanks for your help Link to comment
belinda_sue_fox Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Don't go too many inches over the relaxed size the pleats will look aweful at the top. I'm just in the middle of buying a few new uniforms so i've bought or am ording a few. https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00VTL4G3Q/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1SZHX87TSN283&coliid=I90KOZY4QSH32&psc=1 Same company but larger sizes. I'm ording one tomorrow. Other stuff i just got that may be of intrest and I can say is good quality and fits as described: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00DKYK8OQ/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pd_S_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1SZHX87TSN283&coliid=IS8ZUG2IM8QS6&psc=1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00LFLZEFY/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=1SZHX87TSN283&coliid=I2X0QSMQDDY3TD&psc=1 https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ladies-white-pelerine-cotton-stockings/dp/B010TN6GDC/ref=pd_sim_sbs_193_2?ie=UTF8&dpID=510N-Ll6YLL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL200_SR160%2C200_&refRID=W75T61AR7Z3QEQ9S6RBP Theres more but they and a few others are as described sizewise.

smarti Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 You are about my size when i was your age. It's a shame that for both of these skirts, the larger sizes are out of stock. The Elasticated skirt Link to comment

smarti Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Looks like an interesting site. I couldn't find a sizing chart so I asked them for one "20" seems like it might be big, but I need to know how big .. Good luck! Link to comment
Pwy ydy'r tad Posted July 18, 2016 Author Share Posted July 18, 2016 I feel I should put a quick update on this. Despite placing the order the order on the same day as making the original post Link to comment
