The Long Skirt!


Women love long skirts! It has been one of the fashion favorites since it came with hippies and stayed. Just at some decades it is a bit more appreciated .The skirt is by the Wikipedia: "... a tube- or cone- shaped garment that hangs from the waist and cowers all or part of the legs."

Short history of it shows that:"... the beginning around 1915 hemlines for daytime dresses left the floor for good. For the next 50 years skirts became short in 20 ies, then long 1930, then again shorter during the war years...", back to long because of"the New Look" and then shortest of all in 60 ies. Since sweet 70 ies we are allowed to wear any lenghts of the skirt and long maxi skirt has been one of the trends. There is many reasons why to prefer it: since there is a lot of textile you can play with it creating different designs and patterns, to make them alive by the wind, it makes your movement more gracious and gives more value for your legs as they are seen very seldom,also it brings out your gorgeous waistline and elegant silhouette, long skirt is irreplaceable when you dance, it can almost make you flying and finally, sometimes in a very extreme situations it is a good cower for the rain...
