Each season, a variety of styles and images appear from the classic and glamorous to the bohemian boho style. Among such a variety of models of denim skirts on the floor, it's easy to get lost! Which style to choose and with what to combine it? Will a long denim skirt create the effect of a heavy mundane figure? This article will answer all your questions about popular models.
We select a skirt according to the type of figure
Designers convince that long denim skirts are universal and suitable for all fashion lovers, regardless of the type of figure and height. However, there are some nuances that need to be considered when choosing a skirt.
Tall athletic girls can safely choose any model of a long skirt they like. On a fragile figure, skirts with an asymmetrical hem or multilayer models decorated with lace look very romantic.
For a girl of small stature, models with a high waist and a flared skirt from a hip are suitable. You can also try on a model with contrasting vertical inserts that visually increase the height or a half-sun skirt with large pronounced folds.
Fat girls can try on a jeans skirt expanding from the hips to the floor. The emphasis in this case is best done on the waist, emphasizing it with a wide elastic belt.
Classic trapeze
The most versatile silhouette of a long skirt can be considered a trapeze, which subtly emphasizes the waist and gradually expands to the hips. The skirt can be cut in a straight line or be slightly flared from the line of the hips or knees. The collections of recent years include denim skirts, a-line with decorative inserts made of linen, lace or suede. Sometimes this model starts with a small coquette and is decorated with folds or frills. Often long skirts began to appear with a row of metal buttons.
A skirt of such a silhouette can be safely recommended for both tall and girls of medium height. The owner of full hips such a silhouette will not work, the figure will seem wide and heavy.
In this case, you can try on a trapeze skirt with a smell that visually corrects the figure and makes the silhouette more slender.
Romantic denim skirts
Wide denim skirts on the floor are becoming increasingly popular among girls. Such models are not very relevant in cold weather, but they are often found in spring-summer collections. Silhouettes such as “sun”, “half-sun” or actual “Spaniard” with longline frills are well combined with thin denim.
Thanks to the material from which the model is sewn, and the features of the cut, it is possible to visually create a flowing air silhouette with any figure. A well-chosen model of a fluffy skirt can help both hide excessive thinness and remove the emphasis from lush hips or not very slender legs. Such a denim skirt on the floor remarkably emphasizes the femininity of the silhouette, helping to create a breathtaking image.
Unique boho skirt
Among the variety of fashionable denim skirts offered by designers, one cannot but mention a model in a unique boho style. Such bright things are usually chosen by creative girls who seek to emphasize their individuality. However, many elegant business ladies do not mind having such an avant-garde model in their wardrobe.
Boho-style denim skirts have an unusual decor: fringe on pockets, frills along an asymmetrically cut edge, denim combinations with different fabrics (for example, the hem of the skirt is decorated with inserts with a small ornament of contrasting colors). Beautiful finishes made of multi-layer lace, frills, embroidery, lacing.
What adds to the popularity of this style is that when making denim skirts in the boho style, only natural materials are preferably used.
A boho style skirt model is suitable for a girl with any type of figure, the main thing is to be able to be bright and unique.
High waist
Many stylists do not advise short girls to even try on denim skirts on the floor. On the one hand, this is correct - such a length will make the image mundane and banal. On the other hand, the impression can be corrected by an overestimated waist line and a well-chosen top of the ensemble.
Since the fall of 2017, floor skirts with a high waistline have begun to appear at world shows more and more. This model helps to create a feminine silhouette, emphasizes, and sometimes creates, a narrow waist and a smooth line of the hips.
This model of a long denim skirt visually distracts attention from excessively wide hips, shifting the emphasis to the waist. A straight skirt sitting on the waist above her natural line makes the silhouette slimmer and visually reduces the volume. The only thing, with small flaws of the figure, you do not need to get involved in bright colors, then the opposite effect is possible.
To create a gentle romantic look, a wide flying skirt with a high rise, complemented by an openwork top and shoes with a small heel, is well suited.
Business Denim
Those days when jeans were absolutely not combined with business style have long been left in the past. Today, a long skirt of dark denim may well become the basis of the office dress code.
As an option, you can consider a wide denim skirt with buttons to the floor. If you combine it with a classic light shirt or plain turtleneck and shoes with thick heels, then such an ensemble is quite appropriate to use for a business meeting.
A classic a-line skirt, complemented by a simple silk blouse and an elongated jacket, will look good in the wardrobe of a business woman. In general, if you take a dark denim skirt on the floor for the basic thing, you can create quite a few interesting images that are suitable for both work and meeting friends. It will only be necessary to change shoes, and dilute the image with stylish accessories.
Delicate summer look
A denim skirt on the floor can be called a universal, basic thing, on the basis of which you can create different stylish ensembles that make the image even more attractive. Since the main part of the image is the skirt, the upper part should be restrained and concise.
A blouse made of light flying fabric, silk or chiffon is great for a light long skirt made of thin denim. This contrast of materials always looks great.
A wide denim skirt on the floor can be worn with a blouse with open shoulders, relevant this season. If you complement such an image with bright ballet shoes or wicker sandals on the platform, you can safely go on a romantic date.
On a cool summer evening, you can optionally put on a blouse or an extended cardigan. Stylists are sure that bright shoes with low heels - ballet shoes, espadrilles - are combined in the most harmonious manner with a long denim skirt. Although it can be seen in the photo of denim skirts on the floor made at world fashion shows, shoes with heels or a platform are also welcome.
How to combine a warm skirt
A long denim skirt can harmoniously fit into the autumn and even winter wardrobe, if you can successfully combine it with other warm things.
For example, to go to work, you can wear a dark denim skirt, a plain turtleneck or a thin pullover and comfortable shoes with medium heels.
For shopping or meeting friends, you can use the current kit with a shirt resembling a man's shirt or with a denim shirt (the so-called total jeans look) in contrasting color. Add flat boots or stylish Cossacks. Attention and admiration will be provided!
Skirt + Jacket
In the fall, it is very interesting to combine a long floor skirt with a denim jacket. The only condition for such an image is that it should not look like a single “bow”. Stylists recommend creating sets that are harmonious in color - for example, an indigo skirt and a light blue jacket. To create an office suite, you can choose a long a-line skirt and denim jacket with an emphasis on the waist. You can complement this outfit with a classic blouse and shoes with a small heel.
A boho full skirt will suit nicely with a cropped denim jacket of a straight cut. The convenience of this kit is that the shoes can be both on the heel and on the flat sole. The main thing is that it should be combined in style with a bright skirt.
A denim skirt on the floor is a very beautiful, but at the same time capricious element of the wardrobe. Sometimes it takes a lot of effort to create the perfect look. But the result will justify all efforts.
