Such skirts are always relevant. So many years in fashion, and popularity does not subside, and even more growing.

Each model has its own advantage, which is why it is important to choose your own style. With it, you can be different every day.

How to choose

When choosing, you should pay attention to a number of things. To simplify your task, we decided to create a so-called plan.

  1. It is necessary to take into account the peculiarities of your figure. Critically assess the disadvantages and advantages of your figure. The skirt should not be too short or too narrow. She has to sit perfectly, since all the flaws are especially noticeable on such a skirt. And now you can proceed to the next steps.
  2. Decide on the style and length. What style will emphasize your strengths, and with what help you can hide the flaws of the figure. What length will be appropriate in your particular case.

  5. Pay attention to the shoes - no less important point. Heels, flat sole or sports shoes? You will be prompted by your chosen onion.

Fashionable styles and models

Skirts straight cut are both short and elongated. The pencil skirt is elongated.It covers the lines of the figure and emphasizes the silhouette, suitable for girls with an hourglass figure. This is ideal for the office, if you do not have a strict dress code, and requires heels.

Straight cut is a little risky and winning option. You can create any images - from office to sports. As a rule, it is not too short skirts, the style is suitable for many girls. Such skirts are distinguished by a not too narrow silhouette and minimalism in execution.

Flared version of the skirt - bell skirt. This skirt emphasizes the waist and visually lengthens the legs. Suitable for both slender girls, and girls who want to hide figure flaws.

Another type of flared skirt - Sun skirt. This is a great option for slender girls, and, especially, for plump ones. Usually such a skirt has a length above the knee or a few centimeters below the knee. More suitable for young girls.

Pleated skirt - pleated skirt, the trend of recent years. Suitable for both young girls and older girls. One has only to choose the right length, usually of medium length. The folds on such a model may vary, be narrow or medium, as a rule - this is the average length due to the material. Look better on slender figures.

As a rule, almost all styles of skirts are in addition to the standard fit, there are also with a high waist. This is a fashion trend, suitable for a lot of clothes.

Skirts for gum - this sewing did not go around and leather products. They, as a rule, replace a usual belt. The fabric of the skirt should be smooth and very soft. This is a very risky model, so approach its choice with caution.

One of the less common models - wrap skirt. As a rule, it is sewn from a combination of skin with other fabrics, its length just above the knee. This is one of the unusual options, despite this, is very simple in terms of compatibility.

It is believed that the skin is fat and girls with overweight and problem areas should supposedly avoid such skirts. We decided to refute such a theory and draw up the basic rules:

  • wide hips - a trapeze skirt or flared, maxi, free straight silhouette is suitable and you can also consider a wrap skirt;
  • overweight is a long skirt, free straight cut. The main thing is that the skirt does not fit tight silhouette.

However, the fashion industry does not bypass the side of girls and women with excess weight. A large number of large items have already been created for them. This also applies to leather skirts. This skirt-bell, pencil skirt, with the smell and many others. The secret is that such things are made with the requirements of non-standard figures.

Length

One of the most sought after girls is the mini length. This length fits the owner of an almost perfect silhouette and slender legs, of low or medium height. Usually these skirts are straight or flared silhouette.

Short skirts easily fit the classic style, casual and, most importantly, sporty. They are especially fond of young girls.

The option is longer - midi or to the knee - suitable both for the office and to create a unique romantic image. Most midi skirts are trapezoidal (flared). This skirt focuses on the waist.

Less often, there are leather skirts length maxi or floor. A skirt of this length should be chosen very carefully. The material should be made of very soft leather. This model is simply created to hide the shortcomings of the hips and legs. It is perfect as a basis for creating an evening ensemble.

Finish

Designers do not stop at the simplicity of a leather skirt, they regularly come up with new designs and decorative elements. They decorate the skirts with lightning, rivets, metal elements, make the forms asymmetrical.

One of the latest trends is the fringe. This detail gives insolence to your bow. It would seem that the fringe is inherent in country style, but at the same time it looks great with a classic jacket.

Another seemingly incompatible detail is lace. Yesterday it was thought that this was a completely different world, and now we can put it on any event. Lace trim gives spice to the image and makes you unique. You can be sure, so far, that such models are not common.

Lace can be made of fabric, usually the same color as the skirt. Another option - the lace of leather, it is like a continuation of the skirt. Such an element makes the image mysterious.

The perforated model is an excellent option for summer. The skirt can be made of perforated leather completely, and it can also be a base with a perforated pattern.

The belt is often an expressive detail of the skirt. This element further emphasizes the waistline.

Cuts give sexuality. Usually, such detail adorns the knee-length skirts.

Color spectrum

And now it's time to talk about the color of the skirt made of leather.

Let's start with the most beloved girls - black - this is the classic and most popular color. This skirt visually slims and gives elegance. The easiest option for compatibility: pastel, bright colors, print and strip.

Slightly less popular color - white - has a special originality. White skin is not such a frequent wardrobe item. Number one in combination with a white skirt - black! Other colors are also easily combined.

Beige - perfectly combined with three colors - black, beige and white. Suitable for girls with dark skin, highlighting the tan.

Note that a skirt made of light skin will visually increase the volume of the hips.

Brown skirt is an alternative to black. Perfect strict and casual option. It is harmoniously combined with striped shirts and blouses. And for everyday life, stop your choice on the blue top - a sweater or a T-shirt.

I would also like to mention sets of leather skirts with denim shirts, this is a very unusual combination.

Well, let's move a little bit in color? Dark blue - bright enough, but at the same time relevant thing. It goes well with gray and black.

Maroon - the color of the last few seasons. Do not forget to complement such a bottom with a bag or accessories in color. You will always be in trend. Plus, this color - properly composed ensemble - a great choice for an evening celebration.
