Adjustability

Pros:

  • "It has adjustable elastic for better fit at the waist and an easy side zip for little hands."
  • "Once I adjusted the waistline, this scooter skirt fit perfectly."
  • "We love the built in shorts, the quality of the material, the fact that it's adjustable and it is long enough."
  • "Instead of having to take in tucks to make the waistband tighter or looser there is a built-in mechanism for adjusting the waist size over a very large range."
  • "The adjustable waist allows for continuous wear as her waist grows."
  • "The adjustable buttons helped keep the skirt from falling off her."
  • "However, there are adjustable elastic tabs that tightened up the waist and saved the day."

Cons:

  • "The skirt is WAY too small. I would say it fits exactly true to size, and definitely not several sizes too big."
  • "The skirt is cute with nice details but the waist was too wide, so we ended up returning."
  • "I bought this in a 4t, which is my daughters size. But this is way too big in the waist."
  • "But the five was too large and had to be adjusted to the smallest length which made the skirt a little lopsided."
  • "This skirt did not come with adjustable straps on the inside like the navy one. Not sure why one would and the other wouldn't. Thus, it was too big."
  • "The waist isn't fully adjustable like others so I'm torn to get an 8 or 10."
  • "Less than 3months and the inside string to make the skirt smaller is completely torn."

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "These still look brand new. The color is good and the pleats still look like they did on day 1 without ever being ironed."
  • "The style and material are durable, breathable for hot Florida weather, and more uniform style."
  • "It was the best surprise: it is good quality, way cuter than in the pics, fits well and is comfy."
  • "This skort is made with good quality material and workmanship."
  • "Gorgeous, well-made skirt!"
  • "Love this on several fronts- material is good quality with slight stretch, well made and a true navy blue."
  • "This skirt is identical to my daughter's school uniform skirt that sells for much more! This is not only great quality but the SAME skirt for a better price!"

Cons:

  • "The fabric is thick and slightly itchy, as you’d expect from a uniform skirt."
  • "Sadly, the fabric and stitching are much worse quality than the ones at Kohls, or even Walmart."
  • "Unfortunately there is a huge hole where the undershorts attach to the skirt. Poorly made."
  • "We have this skirt in other colors. Something has changed with the manufacturing. Lower quality fabric and very large in the waist."
  • "This skirt material is not as expected, it is hard to clean, and hold spots for dear life."
  • "The material seemed to be slightly sheer and stiff."
  • "Also, the shorts underneath are not long enough in the crotch to allow you to pull the skirt all the way up to the proper waist."

Fit and Comfort

Pros:

  • "Definitely worth the money!"
  • "It's definitely cute enough that she will wear it again."
  • "They fit her perfectly."
  • "This is one of my favorite skirts for my daughter's uniform collection! Perfect length the material doesn't wrinkle."
  • "Such a great uniform skirt for my five year old! Good quality material, difficult to wrinkle, dries easily and easy to remove any stains."
  • "I didn't expect it to be of such high quality and beauty."
  • "This is the perfect compliment to a Girl Scout Cadette/Senior/Ambassador uniform."

Cons:

  • "For a private school uniform, this is WAY too short. Returning."
  • "The skirt is WAY too small. I would say it fits exactly true to size, and definitely not several sizes too big."
  • "The fabric is thick and slightly itchy, as you’d expect from a uniform skirt."
  • "The skirt does have stretch in it, so I would have rather had it too small than too big."
  • "But the attached shorts are way too tight for the size."
  • "Material is a little scratchy."
  • "It is stiff and, according to the child, scratchy."

Maintenance

Pros:

  • "Doesn't require ironing and it's held up 1.5 years - looks great."
  • "No faded look after washing, no wrinkles, minimal ironing needed."
  • "Surprisingly, they are amazing right out of the dryer! I’ve never had to iron them once!"
  • "The material is very nice and looks to be very durable."
  • "They wash amazing and hold up. They never look worn, always look brand new."
  • "The material never fades no matter how many times you wash it!"
  • "It is comfortable, easy to wash, does not require ironing, and there is an adjustable elastic waistband inside."

Cons:

  • "I was hoping that these would not need excessive ironing for the pleats."
  • "The fabric feels quite stiff, and it requires ironing to look presentable."
  • "All I know is this is straight from the dryer so I do have to iron it."
  • "The material does not wrinkle unlike her other skorts so no ironing needed."
  • "You don't need to iron it, it's enough just to hang it on the hanger for the night."
  • "The skirt has all pleats pinched so you don't need iron them very much after washing."
  • "Love it! Washing it doesn't make it wrinkles and the pleats sit right even after washing and drying!"

Design and Style

Pros:

  • "Love the French Toast brand. Traditional Uniform styles with a little touch of class, how can you not love that."
  • "It's durable material and looks perfect!"
  • "I paired it with a shirt I made and some suspenders I bought and she looked so cute."
  • "This skirt style is PERFECT to stand out and remain compliant with school uniform protocol."
  • "The pleats are so pretty."
  • "Much more stylish than uniform skirts available in our local retail stores."
  • "The vibrant colors are a lovely touch, making her school attire stand out beautifully."

Cons:

  • "Only pleated in front."
  • "The skirt is shorter than it appears. It looks knee length in the picture but it’s a regular short uniform skirt."
  • "Adorable skirt but doesn’t fit like we wanted it to. My daughter is 6 and we got the size 6 based on the size chart. It literally fell to her ankles."
  • "I like the material of the skirt, but it’s a little too short for my long legged 5 year old."
  • "The skirt has the elastic tabs to take up the waist, which were needed."
  • "It's cute, but way too big."
  • "Love it, but red color was more of a dark purple than wine color so didn’t match my granddaughters school colors."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Definitely worth the money!"
  • "This skirt is identical to my daughter's school uniform skirt that sells for much more! This is not only great quality but the SAME skirt for a better price!"
  • "Great fit, washes well with no fading & best price on internet."
  • "Quality is far better than I had anticipated for the price."
  • "Much less expensive than the ones suggested by the school and these don’t wrinkle!"
