considered as the denim
skirt nothing but an adaptation of the traditional five pocket
jeans. The looks were just like a cut and un-sewn pair of jeans. They
retained the same elements as the blue jeans: belt loops, waist band,
five pocket configuration, fly and rivets. Some people used to making
a vintage denim skirt from an old pair of jeans and as a great way of
recycling while at the same time adding a basic to your wardrobe.

Denim Skirts and Body Types
*Hourglass:
Avoid saggy, clumsy, oversized skirts. Bring attention to your waist
by using belted skirts, and by all means show off your legs in your
denim mini skirt. Don't wear the skirts too tight, your features and
curves should draw attention without the extra help. The pencil
skirt is made for you. It is best seen, when wore with a tucked
in shirt and a belt.
*Straight: Low waist
skirts have the feature to will elongate the look of your torso.
Skirts with ruffles, lace, or feminine things will be especially
flattering, but avoid pleated material at the waist; pleats should be
gathered under the waist band.
Pleats
should always be stitched or pressed down. If your legs are thin, short
denim skirts would be ideal. Avoid a straight skirt, as it will
give you a "squarish" look. Some people look for skirts
that taper slightly in. Many people try a fit and flared
skirt, they are curvy, and sexy by design. Strategically placed
fades will work well, much as they do with pants. An angled or better
yet, a curved yoke will also accentuate your rear end.
*Pear: For
this type, be careful with the length, and try to avoid anything
above the knee. The guideline to follow is to never have the hemline
at the height where your legs are thick in each area like in the calf
area, near the knee, and around the ankle.
A Classic
skirt, the cut should drape smoothly down your hips, preferably
flaring out to an A-line. A straight cut can accentuate your hips and
if you have good curves try this skirt. Avoid pleats in the hip area
as well as embellishments. Vertical details will help break the
expanse of fabric across wider hips to create a more slimming look. A
wrapped skirt can offer the same illusion of verticality
*Inverted
Triangle: For this type, try a three quarter or full length wrap
with some body. The "larger" proportion of the wrap will
split your body features and composition, attracting attention away
from your shoulders. An A-lined skirt will also adequately balance
your look with comfort. In general, try and look for skirts that
flare, they can help balance your broad shoulders.
*Round: Select
a wider flare or A-line, which creates a visual balance in the
meanwhile drawing attention away from your waist. Avoid bulky or
layered skirts; look for a more custom tailored fit designer
skirt that will draw attention to your beautiful legs. Look for
darker colors, no tiered skirts, and vertical detailing.
*Diamond: Look
for a skirt
with a wider flare or a gradual A-Line, as in the case of the Round
body type. Also look for designer skirts with more vertical paneling,
they create verticality and have a definite slimming effect. |
