I had three more items I got from Taobao. but two of them only just fit so I had to install zips.

The material is really high quality, very thick and having the bloomers underneath is great. The sizing was a little small and the elastic in the back didn't give much so was incredibly hard to get into. With a lot of effort I managed to squeeze in and once on fit ok. and looked cute. So I thought even though its not quite big enough to easily slip on and off if I put a zip in it, it would be all good. My hand sewing skills aren't very good but I didn't have access to a machine to use so I made do. and it turned out alright. but was hard because of the two layers. The skirt now fits great with the zip and is awesome! Although because my thighs are quite large the leg holes are very stretched to fit on me, so you can't see as many cute ruffles. Oh the bow on the front is also detachable.

Like the marron skirt the shorts were also not true to size and I had trouble getting then on, but once on were fine. The was also a stitching default on the left leg the bottom was hooked up. I had to unpick that and add a zip but then they were perfect. The material was also very thick and it also has a lining on the inside. Apart from the bottom of the leg being stitched up to the pants it was very well made. The shorts have suspenders which are button on and can be adjusted if you need them shorter. I do have them on the largest they go and they just fit. I will probably wear this mostly without the suspenders, unless I wear tights under the shorts so they don't seem as short when the suspenders hike it up.
I can see myself getting a lot of wear out of these shorts now that I had added a zip so they are easy to get in and out of.

Fits perfectly. Though I would have preferred a little bigger for shirts where the collar isn't as close fitting to my neck. But its really cute. Well made. Adjustable for those with smaller necks. I have a large neck so its on the biggest it goes. The colour is very dark so looks black
