Tips for choosing
- Remember that hips and legs will look more voluminous if the skirt contains the following elements: patch pockets, ruffles, flounces, large jewelery (flowers, buttons, etc.), horizontal pattern or seams. To visually make the shape slimmer, you should choose a skirt to the floor of matte fabric, as the glossy surface will increase you one or two sizes.
- If you associate a long skirt with excessive restraint and modesty, pay attention to models of asymmetrical cut, models with high cutouts or skirts made of translucent fabrics (such skirts usually have a short, opaque cover to mid-thigh). So you can follow fashion trends without changing your own preferences.
What to wear?
The floor skirt goes well with so many things from your wardrobe, so you can create several different, interesting images based on it. For example, a very feminine and elegant combination consists of a light blouse and a long skirt of a classic cut.
To create a more modern look, a blouse can be replaced with a knit T-shirt or a t-shirt with a trendy print. Jeans or a denim shirt tied at the waist are perfect for this ensemble.
On cooler days, a skirt to the floor can be worn with a cropped cardigan, vest, or even with a sweater or pullover. It is possible to add such an image with boots on a thick sole or with boots in cowboy style.
