I'm looking for a navy pleated skirt with an adjustable waist (elastic and buttons).
We bought one in the junior sizes but looking for one is full girls size. Somewhere between size 10-14 girls, depending on brand.
Does anyone know which uniform store carries this?
Thanks!

I believe Gold Label has it. I bought mine at Fraylich, and put in a rubber waistband at the seamstress.

Thanks! I'll check out landsend.
About fraylich, I bought the junior size 12 there it's the largest little kids size, but they said the regular kids sizes were not available with adjustable waist.
DD would probably be a 10 in regular kids sizes.

It was NOT rubber.
But inserting buttonhole elastic is a good affordable solution.

How much are the skirts and jumpers at Fraylichs? I was thinking to go there for uniforms but I was wondering the price range.

I got a couple of French Toast brand ones from Amazon, they seem decent but I haven't used them long.

BY Styles skirts are like that. If your local stores don't carry them, you can buy them online through their website. bystyles.com

Thanks all!
Adding buttonhole elastic is not affordable as it adds $15 to the cost of the skirt. That could make one skirt $55.
(Junior sizes cost $36 at Fraylich, Children's sizes cost $40 but don't have adjustable elastic waist.)
Previously we bought $18 skirts at a cheaper store and bought new ones as necessary but we have a hard time trying them on and finding the right fit as each piece is different, even from same company and same size. And sometimes we don't find enough pieces of the one that fits. We couldn't go through that this year.
I wish I didn't have to order through landsend. Sizing is so finicky with dd and I need a store to shop in person.
When we bought the Fraylich skirt the saleswoman fit her in the junior size 10 but I asked for a junior size 12 so there would be room to pull some of the elastic. Good thing I only bought one to try first because the junior size 12 (that's as high as the junior sizes go - the children's size 10 is actually larger than junior 12) is more just than we thought previously and there's no room to grow. We need a larger size but it's important to have the adjustable waist. Last year we had to replace the new skirt halfway through the year. BH!

Next direct has navy pleated skirts with adjustable waist. They have a longer length style.

this company seems to sell a nice variety of lengths and materials ... it might even be right in your neck of the woods [still no button elastic - but again I could put that in for a song & a dance]
