What a used midi skirt is worth by condition
Condition does more to the price than anything else. These figures are worked from the top of the range for midi skirts, so treat them as a starting point and adjust for the specifics of yours.
| Condition | Typical price | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| New with Tags | £40 | Unused, tags or seals intact |
| Like New | £34 | Barely used, no visible wear |
| Good | £26 | Light signs of use, complete and working |
| Fair | £18 | Heavily used, or a described fault or missing part |
| For Parts | £10 | Not working or incomplete, sold as seen |
These are the five grades WishThrift listings use, and sellers set the grade themselves — see what each condition grade means. Figures are shown in pounds as a reference point. On WishThrift prices display in your own currency, and sellers set their own asking price.
What raises the value of a midi skirt
- Structured fabrics that hold a shape
- Pleats that are still sharp
- Designer and contemporary labels
- Full linings in good condition
What lowers it
- Pleats that have dropped or lost definition
- Bobbling on knitted midi skirts
- Stretched waistbands
- Very trend-specific prints
How to work out what yours is worth
- Check pleats are still sharp and evenly spaced
- Inspect the waistband for stretching
- Measure the waist and full length
Once you have those three answers you can place your own midi skirt on the table above with reasonable confidence. If it sits between two rows, price it toward the lower one — items priced honestly sell faster than items priced hopefully.

Frequently asked questions
Do midi skirts sell well?
Yes, they work across seasons and occasions, which makes them one of the steadier clothing categories.
Can dropped pleats be restored?
Pressing helps temporarily but rarely lasts, especially on synthetic fabrics. Photograph them as they are.
What length counts as midi?
Roughly mid-calf, but give the exact measurement rather than relying on the term, since interpretations vary.
