Your Favorite Skirt Length?
Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
A very narrow bandwidth for me. 18" absolute minimum and then strictly when alone. I do like the hem to be above the knee. so 20-22 or 23 inch are about right on me and I like the feel of that length of skirt. Always flared and preferrably with pleats, also slash pockets.

Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
In summer my favourite length of skirt is from mini length to just above the knee. In the colder weather I will wear skirts from knee length down to calf length.
Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
Just below the knee. It just feels right.
Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
My favourite length skirt is a midaxi or maxi skirt which are normally around the 36-39" length, just like the look of all the increased material hanging down from around my waist
Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
Maxi. Ex said I had nice legs, but outside of a pleather knee length and a black knit mini I bought on impulse, hem at the ankles or sweeping the lino, thank you.
Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
I'm still experimenting but i too like knee length but i also have denim skirts which are about 6 inchs below my knee. If I had to choose at this time I'd say knee length
I'm just a guy who likes to wear skirts, it's cool in more ways than one.

My Favorite Skirt Length? It depends on the weather, but my minimal skirt (and newly also dress) length is about the knee one; shorter one would be a little dangerous because I wear no underwear under skirts.
I have also some shorter skirts, but I wear them only because of their pockets under my longer skirts that haven't pockets.

Personally I find that ankle length or above the knee looks the most balanced with my body proportions. I mainly wear skirts for dancing and longer ones are more swishy, also.

Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
Depending where it sits on my hip, then 9 to 11 inches, althouh I will wear an inch or two longer. Gradually I've been getting rid of anything over 13 inches as I'm just not wearing them these days. I have kept back a couple of full length skirts for special occasions.

Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
It depends. I like wearing mini skirts, short skirts and mini dresses when I’m wearing black leggings or thick black 300 denier opaque tights. I like wearing long maxi skirts with bare legs or sheer 10 to 30 denier black tights/pantyhose or black fishnet tights. Combat and Dr Marten boots look great with those skirts no matter what length they are.

Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
17” to 19” is the range of best lengths for me!
Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
I've recently come to the cafe and started to be liberated away from trousers, so I've been experimenting with where my waist is to start with, ye I know it sounds crazy but in skirts my waist is about 4 inches higher which feels right and comfortable.
I think my ideal length is at the top of my knee to the bottom of my knee. Top of the knee for skirts such as straight denim and below the knee for a more flared skirt, A-line.

Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
Most of my regular skirts fall someplace at or just above the knee. Many of the skorts I wear are a little shorter and fall an couple of inches above the knee. I do from time to time like a Maxi skirt that falls at my ankles.

Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
So far I’ve only worn knee length skirts/kilts, except for a much shorter running skirt when out for a jog (does that count?). I am drawn to getting a midi length one though - Uniqlo have some nice simple ones.
Re: Your Favorite Skirt Length?
I tend to go for midi or maxi skirts. Definitely wouldn’t like mini but would try knee length.
