Girls' Plus Fit Permanent Pleats School Skirt (2-18 Yrs)

I am very disappointed! While the skirt is bigger in the waist, it is unfortunatelyalso significantly longer!! As such it is completely unsuitable for an average child of this age to wear!! Essentially it is just a larger size perhaps a regular 9-10 age skirt re-abled as a plus fit. I bought the plus fit as for some reason the skirts I purchased from you last year age 5-6 are now the same size in the waist as the 8-9 year old skirts and therefore again too long. I took the skirts into and measured it against a number of the different styles you carry including the exact same style as before but found they all had this issue. I am very unwell and it is very difficult to return them so I have will now have to keep them and hope that they fit in 2 to 4 years time.

Pleated school skirt with expanding waist fitting. Washed well, good length, good fabric

Good quality skirt. Delivered promptly to my local store and collection was straightforward. However, I would prefer to type a code onto the in-store screen, rather than my full name.

Good quality school skirts, more grown up style with zip and button on the side. Still has the adjustable waist and a pocket.

I ordered these skirts as the image implied the waistline was elasticated at the back but they’re not. They had to be returned.

These skirts WERE great, but they added a zip and button instead of the elastic waist. What girl needing a plus fit skirt wants a zip and button M&S? I am really disappointed that something we have relied on for years has changed. I didn’t even check when I bought the next size up this year, so 8 weeks later at the start of term, we are stuck with skirts my daughter won’t wear.

Great quality, value for money, fitted perfectly .

We’ve had lots of “fun” getting a school skirt this year as M&S have stopped doing different lengths. I have a 152cm tall 11yr old who is on the thinner side. The length on the skirts was so long that we started with a 8-9 slim fit, which fit round the waist but was well on her knee. So in the end we went for a 6-7 plus size which is then an inch above her knee and acceptable length wise in her eyes!

Awful fit. Taken the elasticated back from the skirt which made them comfy and replaced with a zip and button.

I’ve bought these skirts for my daughter for years and ordered again this year. While they have always had an elasticated waist, this year M&S have decided to change it and introduce a zip. They now don’t fit my daughter and she is upset. These were the only skirts that I could buy for her and I’m now going to have to find something similar elsewhere with an elasticated waist. Not happy, why change something when it’s unnecessary
