Feminine Sport Skirt

I have gravitated toward the pleated sport skorts. I purchased this for golf since I have several tops to coordinate with it. It is a little more “foofy” than others I own, but very feminine and lightweight. It may not be a skort one would want if they needed something to minimize the hips. I was almost hesitant myself and have no need to minimize the look. I look forward to wearing it soon.

not ideal for sports

This skirt is so cute but the length is less than ideal for actually playing golf or tennis. Not appropriate for the course at all. Sadly returning

Too much pleating

Too short and poofy. As another reviewer stated, this skirt makes the hips look wider due to all of the pleats. Returned.

unflattering

Looks great in the pictures but when worn by someone with slim hips and a slight tummy, looks dumpy. Returned it. I also agree with complaint the reviewer who described its total lack of compression. This might look cute, but I use activewear to be active. I wear skorts for running until it’s too cold for bare legs. I don’t think this would have worked very well. Too bad, it looked really cute in the app.

Cute, But Not Functional Without Compression

For the life of me, I can’t understand why Zella’s activewear skorts don’t include any compression. They’re clearly meant to look good, but have zero functionality to actually play tennis or another sport, as the shorts are constantly riding up because they lack any compression. Compression would also help with the poofy style of this skort.

Cute and comfy

Love the little pleats and lavender color. I’m 5’3 and it’s little short for me but keeping b/c it’s so cute! Also runs a little small.
