Nice skirt/kilt of sorts - but you are are going to be disappointed about the UK size 16.
Check their size chart out at this link:

The UK size 16 equals a waist of 31-32 inches (not 34).
UK sizes in general use a larger number to equal the same US size.
I.E. UK 16 equals US 14.
To get a 34 inch waist you are going to have to go to a UK 18 or 20.
The max size is 16 on this skirt.
The waist on this skirt is fixed with a back zipper closing - I don't
think there is going to be much fudging to get the extra two inches
unless there is some elastic stretch in the waist band. The waist is
complemented with a detachable belt - just maybe you can snug the
belt up to make it fit. Good luck.
