My main gripe with "pic3" is that it looks forced. The skirt comes to about the most unflattering spot possible on the legs and the things on the lower part of the legs are, in my opinion, just plain awful.ChristopherJ wrote:I agree with you there. That is a good, sort of all-purpose length of skirt suitable for guys. I'd wear that - although most of the time I prefer to wear shorter skirts.The denim length of Pic 3 I like the most, if it were to catch on...
Knee-length skirts have to be very carefully chosen because if one clips the line of the knee wrong it can ruin the look. If there's any doubt about the "right" length, it's better to err on either too long (and risk looking moderately dowdy) or too short (and risk looking somewhat "flashy"). Mild errors will usually be forgiven.
Long skirts, I think, work well on guys (most of mine tend towards mid-calf); however, chaps like ChristopherJ point up that short ones can work as well. So, (again in my opinion) it comes down to line and proportion -- are the "weights" right both topside and bottom-side; does the outfit look believable (can a bloke wear it and not look "forced"); and does it flow well?
Most tellingly -- is it something that *you* would wear? Is it something that you'd let a friend wear without "commentary"?
