Description:

In this swap you will searching thrift stores, yard sales, antique shops, wherever you like to find the most outrageous print skirt you can find. The goal is to find the most outrageous print, not the shortest or most shocking in some other form. Think covered in giant mushrooms or multi-colored plaid with polka dots.

Try to find a skirt that will fit your partner. Everyone should post their size and any other preference in the comment section below. Many vintage skirts have an elastic waistband and the size and fit is different from today, so you may want to include your measurements.

You shouldn't spend any more than $12 on this swap, but you may definitely spend less as some thrift stores are cheaper. The skirt may not have holes or stains and must be in very good condition.

You will have one month after the sign up deadline to find a skirt for you partner, so you should have plenty of time to search and find a fitting outrageous skirt. Sorry, no newbies and must have a rating of 4.8 or higher.

My size is large/xlarge, about a modern day 14 and I would love a skirt that I could wear high-waisted like in the picture.

Wow I love the pictured skirt. I wear a Medium or a 5/6 in skirts. I want one that comes to the ankle or below due to religious modesty. I am 5ft3 in height just so you know the length I'd need. Wow What an awesome idea! LOL So excited for this one!

Man, I wish I qualified for this one! Have lots of fun, y'all. Lord willing, when I do get to the point of qualifying for some of these (only been in one swap so far), something like this will be available.

I love the skirt in the picture and would totally wear it! I guess I have a high threshold for "outrageous" :D

I think I will watch this swap for now-as money is tight..

I might end up having to join ,though! :D

I am usually a size 4 so small or medium should do the trick :)

Jordaaan 02/20/2012 #

I'm a size 4 and my measurements are 36" and 24" (in case its needed lol I'm also 5'8" also in case) I'm guessing that will be either a small or medium.

I WEAR SIE 22/24 AND I WEAR MY SKIRTS LONG TO MY ANKLES I AM 5'1.

This is so fun!!! I would probably need a size 18 to fit my hips...but honestly I'm not going to be picky on size as I will probably end up taking the skirt apart and making something else out of it! I like to do that lol. So if you can't find my size don't worry about it, just send something crazy!
