Kut Denim Pencil Skirt 8 21 inches in length, the waist measures 16 inches laying flat, just underneath the pockets in the rear it measures approximately 19 inches laying flat. Zipper is in good working order. From a clean non-smoking home. The fabric is a dark wash. I believe it to be even a little bit darker than it shows up in the photos on my screen. Just note that screens can vary.
