First of all the color. All internal reviewer say that the color is really black - contrary to the color in the picture.
I also find that the color is much darker than in the picture, but I would rather call the rock but dark anthracite than as really, really pitch black. This just for info.
As for the size, so write some, that the rock failures too big. One must take it literally 1-2 size larger. I can confirm that in no case! I always carry with Esprit size 40 because I like it nice and easy to yes in winter still want to wear a pair of tights underneath. I have already received some skirts of Esprit, which significantly looser sat in this size as this one. I would therefore say rather that it is a narrow size 40 and I wonder if I do not yet - to take size 42, what I normally never - quite unusual.
So please do not let go crazy and order the rock in the normal size, you also have otherwise, if you like it more tightly. If you like it more relaxed, one size larger. Anyway, I'll keep the rock in one of the two sizes. There are, after all, also belt, if you have even a few kilos less.
From the material of her skirt is rather thin and elastic. So no thicker denim, but quite a bit stretchy and suitable for the summer. But even with opaque stockings in winter certainly chic. I can recommend buying.
