For length, I ordered normally wear 39-40" and ordered 42". I am 5'9". If I were to do this again I might go down to 41". I wish the pie wedges reached higher up on the leg. I had a chance to compare my skirt with one made for a dancer of average height. I think everybody gets the same wedge size; rather than it being proportional to length.
Hope that helps a little. The skirts are beautiful.

*Sigh* I think you're lovely, Zari! I also think she cuts the slit in proportion. on the ones that were custom made for me, she cuts it about 5 inches above the knee. I bought one from Tanya (who's taller than I am) and the slit is higher. I also prefer the deluxe trumpets because the extra gore in the back gives your legs more freedom.
