Skirt shortage!
21 Answers
I'm on my pet subject again I know, but when will fashion buyers realise that not everyone, any age, any size wants to wear trousers all the time.
Looking round the shops last week there are hardly any skirts for everyday wear (a few velvet ones for evening wear) so I was really pleased to see some advertised in a widely circulated catalogue "Fifty Plus" - I ordered one in my usual long flowing style I can wear with boots. This morning I got an email apologising for a delay in sending my order as they were a little suprised at the huge demand which had wiped out their entire stock! They have re-ordered and I can expect to receive my skirt .........wait for it ........... by 19 DECEMBER allowing for 5 days in the post!! What a long wait!
I can't understand why stores haven't learnt from last years mistake - think of the loss of sales to the big stores who are not stocking them despite the demand! While out shopping I heard lots of shoppers saying the same thing.
