Oh, glorious purple; oh, beautiful scallops! Three tiers of scallop shells grace the hemline of this skirt, continuing their ribbed pattern to the waist. Because this skirt is basically ribbing, it can fit a wide variety of sizes by being stretched a little or a lot, depending on how you wish the fit to be. Here is an irresistible opportunity to buy a pair of purple undies to use for the waistband!
