knit sweater skirt

Most listings describe these dresses as above-knee or mini length — i.e., they fall above the knee.

Descriptions list turtleneck necklines and a variety of sleeve details such as drop shoulders, lantern long sleeves, and occasional cold-shoulder cutouts.

They are described as slim fit with pull-on closures. Design details like an elastic band at the waist and ruched sides influence how the dress hugs the body.

Listings describe the fabric as highly stretchy. Descriptions vary on weight, referring to it both as lightweight (in softer marketing copy) and as midweight in technical bullets.

Listings warn that light shades may be slightly sheer and recommend wearing nude undergarments or a slip for extra coverage.

Details such as ruched sides and an elastic band at the waist are noted for accentuating a slimming effect; overall the garments are described as hugging the body and showing the wearer’s shape.
