Wearing spandex on its own has never made me feel self conscious, but the Whisper does provide an added level of confidence knowing that my running outfit was modest and feminine. This sturdy and flexible skort is just shorter than mid-thigh and also accommodates other types of exercise like kickboxing and yoga. The Whisper is tapered, sleek and lightweight, allowing the legs full range of motion. It achieves this with an asymmetrical seam that wraps from the hip to the thigh. The shorts underneath the skirt are a comfortable length without poking out below the skirt's hem. However, they don't stay put like most spandex. Luckily, this isn't a cause for embarrassment because the skirt is long enough to cover any short malfunctions. The wide, stretchy waistband is almost too comfortable, since it doesn't stay in place as I would like it to. While the ribbon gives the skirt a feminine touch, it doesn't seem functional. I'm typically a medium, but wonder if the Whisper would perform better on my body a size smaller. I like the Whisper best when I wear full-length spandex underneath. The added layer helps the Whisper fit better.
