Denim Skirt

Summary by Richard Romando, edited by Ferdinand Rinaldy

Denim skirt continues to be popular this season. A perennial fabric, the durable nature of denim ensures that the skirt keeps its shape and fit despite being worn repeatedly. Brought into the limelight with the recent Bollywood film ‘Salaam Namaste’ where actress Preity Zinta flaunts her Von Dutch denim mini teamed with a red tank top, a denim skirt has and always will be a basic summer item while a longer, slim denim skirt is preferable in winter.

Marc Jacobs recently showcased his line of stretch denim A-line skirts with zipper pockets at front and single button closure. Designer Miuccia Prada turned denim inside out for strapless dresses worn over T-shirts in her latest collection while earlier this year, D-Squared combined denim with suede leather in a collection based on rodeo chic.

While denim minis flatter slim figures, a pencil-length skirt paired with a soft, feminine top is a great elegant option for those blessed with fuller figures.

What Are Skirts And How Are They Used?

Summary by Quentin Diamond

Exactly what is a skirt?

In the the West, skirts are usually worn by women as part of everyday clothing. In Scotland, The kilt is considered a traditional mens garment, and some fashion designers, that include Jean-Paul Gaultier, have designed skirts for men.

Skirts of thin or clingy tight fabrics are often worn with slips to make the material of the skirt hang better and to make them less see through.

In medieval times, some upper-class women wore skirts over 3 meters in diameter at the bottom. Historians typically describe the skirt like garments of the 18th century as petticoats.

In America and Europe, skirts are worn by women and girls of all ages as an alternative to trousers. Skirts may be worn as part of a suit and often the clothing of choice for many women in formal situations.
