A-line, Pencil, And Denim Skirts Through The Ages
The skirt has been considered a part of womens trendy clothing for centuries
. They can range anywhere from skimpy to modest fashion, and can be as simple as a single piece of material.
There are a series of different skirt styles in todays fashion:
The A-Line Skirt, with its small and slim waist is designed to hug perfectly at the hips. Near the bottom it flows out, providing a fuller shape, similar to the letter A. This kind of bottom is ideal for ladies with bigger hips or thighs that they may be trying to conceal, since the A-shape prevents fabric from clinging.
The Tube Skirt is similar to the pencil, except longer. Usually the skirt stops right before the ankle, though shorter versions are not so rare. This style is ideal for the lady with a wider top to a smaller bottom
The Pencil Skirt works on any body type, but is ideal for a curvy-figured lady. The tapered style bottom works to highlight lower body curves. The length should not descend lower than the knee.
An Asymmetrical Skirt has an uneven hemline, usually making one side longer than the other. By drawing the angels of the body, this skirt creates a line and a curve. Neither too tight nor loose, this fit conceals part of the legs.
The Column skirt is ideal for the tall and leggy lady because it lengthens the body line. It is often used by women who have narrow hips or rounded figures. Its typically long length helps to conceal big ankles.
Additionally, there are many different types of skirts, available in most and sometimes all of the above styles.
A Denim Skirt, often referred to as a jean skirt, is made from the same material as blue jeans. While shorter versions of the denim skirt are often worn by teenagers and young adults, long jean skirts are commonly worn by women prohibited from wearing trousers due to their religious beliefs. Some are modeled specifically after jeans, with a front fly, belt loops and back pockets. Also similar to jeans, denim skirts vary in shades, ranging from extraordinarily dark to very pale.
More popular in the 80s and 90s, the leather skirt also appears in a variety of styles. However, it is often regarded as more of a sexy look, and therefore is more appropriate for a night out than work-suitable.
The miniskirt (sometimes hyphenated mini-skirt) has a hemline well above the knees. In modern fashion, the miniskirt has led the way into the new microskirt. In terms of length, the microskirt rests in between a belt and a miniskirt.
There is also womens culottes. Not to be confused with the knee-breeches worn by gentleman in the European upper-class during the Renaissance, culottes are a divided skirt. This split-skirt was developed to allow a modern women freedom to take part in physical activities without fearing exposure.
With its long list of different types and styles, the tube shaped garment known as the skirt is guaranteed to continue playing a role in womens fashion for generations.
