This season, reputable designers and fashion designers have decided to revive the somewhat forgotten popularity of midi skirts. Such a slit skirt was in demand among fashionistas at the end of the last century. In all likelihood, skirts a little higher than the ankles will become the main hit of the outgoing year.
What points should I look for when choosing a mid-length skirt? What to wear with a midi skirt in the fall? Let's try together to understand these issues.
History
If we turn to the past, women's dresses of medium length below the knee were in demand among fashionistas back in the 40s of the last century. The second wave of popularity of midi skirts came in the stormy 70s. It was at this time that such skirts began to be used more often when forming outfits.
For a long time, designers tried to experiment with styles, offering the target audience a wide variety of models of skirts longer than the ankle. Not many options have succeeded in retaining the right to exist and survive to this day, which will be discussed later.
Style
To date, among the main styles that designers pay attention to, the following options appear:
- Pencil-shaped slit skirt. The correct selection of such a model allows you to visually lengthen your legs and make the figure more slender.
- The A-silhouette model, also known as a trapezoid, is a universal style, the choice of which makes it possible to hide a whole host of figure flaws.
- To the middle of the caviar - an extremely capricious, but at the same time extremely common style. It ends in a wide area of caviar, and therefore the choice of such a model requires an objective assessment of the shape of the legs.
- Lush style - visually expands the hips. Allows you to bring a hint of flirtation and romance to the image.
Figure
Who suits and what to wear with a midi skirt? Products of this type can potentially come to face any girl. The main condition for this is a competent selection of style and proper placement of accents.
As shoes under a midi skirt, it is recommended to choose high-heeled shoes or boots. Moreover, shoes and a skirt should look like part of the same composition according to the material and shade. Lightweight fabrics blend better with the finest studs. At the same time, a dense midi denim skirt will look much more attractive in the image with a wide heel.
When choosing a length should focus on growth. Tall girls are allowed to go on rather daring experiments with length when choosing skirts in this category. However, relatively low ladies are advised not to depart too far from generally accepted canons, paying attention exclusively to models to the knee.
A classic midi black skirt is worn at the waist. Therefore, when choosing this option, you need to be able to correctly evaluate your own figure. Only in this way can we understand in which style it will turn out to present the waist in a favorable light.

- The taller the girl, the longer the skirt you can afford. It is better for low-born women to dwell on models just below the knees.
- Owners of full calves should completely abandon the choice of midi skirts, because they perfectly emphasize this drawback. The choice of such a skirt in this case will create the effect of additional completeness.
- Buying a fluffy midi skirt with a slightly high waist allows you to visually take a few pounds and hide the obvious cons of the figure. To remove the volume in the upper part of the outfit, making the image as harmonious as possible, it is worth giving preference to tight-fitting things.
