Long, drapey, panelled skirt

Discussion of fashion elements and looks that are traditionally considered somewhat "femme" but are presented in a masculine context. This is NOT about transvestism or crossdressing.

Those are also called "Mermaid skirts". Straight at the top and flaring out from the knees down. An extreme one is seen in the movie "Too Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar" worn by actor John Leguizamo in the final scene of the movie where his character wins the Drag Queen award. Funny movie. My fav character in that movie was Deputy Dullard. oops, Dollard, as he continues to tell everyone in the movie from his first scene on. Played by Christopher Penn. :D
I had to remove this signature as it was being used on Twitter. This is my OPINION, you NEEDN'T AGREE.

I like it!
I like it!
Nice flat front uncluttered with detail.
BUT!
Not available in my size.....
and just a tad (10+ inches) too long in the hem.
Oh well back to the wish book.

"Kilt-On" -or- as the case may be "Skirt-On" !
WHY ?
Isn't wearing a kilt enough?
Well a skirt will do in a pinch!
Make mine short and don't you dare think of pinching there !

This looks a great skirt. It looks like more of a work/formal skirt though, it is a skirt I would love to wear to work, if only I had the courage.

I too like the appearance of this skirt. It would be a nice compliment to my long black shiny skirt.
