A Few Fun Things About Skirts

3/13/2017

3 Comments

 
According to Wikipedia a straw-woven skirt dating to 3900 BC was discovered in Armenia at the Areni-1 cave complex.  Skirts have been worn by men and women from many cultures...

Styles have changed over the years, not only in lengths and fabrics, but also in types. Here are some of the basic types:
  • A-line skirt, a skirt with a slight flare, roughly in the shape of a capital letter A
  • Bell-shaped skirt, flared noticeably from the waist but then, unlike a church bell, cylindrical for much of its length
  • Circle skirt, a skirt cut in sections to make one or more circles with a hole for the waist, so the skirt is very full but hangs smoothly from the waist without darts, pleats, or gathers
  • Culottes, a form of divided skirt constructed like a pair of shorts, but hanging like a skirt.[5]
  • Full skirt, a skirt with fullness gathered into the waistband
  • Pleated skirt, a skirt with fullness reduced to fit the waist by means of regular pleats ('plaits') or folds, which can be stitched flat to hip-level or free-hanging
  • Short skirt, a skirt with hemline above the knee
  • Straight skirt or Pencil skirt, a tailored skirt hanging straight from the hips and fitted from the waist to the hips by means of darts or a yoke; may have a vent or kick-pleat set in the hem for ease of walking
  • Wrap or wraparound skirt, a skirt that wraps around the waist with an overlap of material

I literally can't stop laughing about the facts that you are giving in this blog about skirts. We should probably be aware about such things that are good for the sake of ladies wearing the skirts all the time.
