Find the long skirt that best suits you
Find the long skirt that best suits you
The morphology of our body gives us the necessary clues to know which garment structure favors us more or less Sometimes it is not necessary to know the theory, because over the years we get to know our body and we become super self-stylists s. However and since long skirts are a trend, it is time to make it clear that we can all wear them without problems or complexes, choosing the correct one of course. Before you start, take this test and find out (at once) what your body type is.

The absence of curves is not a problem. Not with the right clothes. Do you like long skirts but think they make you some kind of straight block? That is because you do not opt for flared skirts, with volume to the end and with some type of superior fit to highlight the waist above all else. That will make an hourglass shape much more easily.

Keep in mind that if the flight and the mini volume it has reaches the end, it will multiply your own volume to the bottom.

That said, make sure that it fits very closely to the waist, so that it then falls flared to the bottom. In addition, the large tables provide the volume you are looking for.

If you want a 'Kardashian' effect, the best thing you can do is find designs that fit at the waist only to follow the natural line of your body . However, if what you would like is to hide it, nothing like totally straight skirts but with movement and fluid, zero tight.

In this sense, what we want is to eliminate volume from both areas. With this in mind, asymmetrical designs and straight skirts are your favorite option.

The big dilemma: If I'm short, do long skirts favor me? Absolutely yes, the ones that won't do you so much justice will be the ones that are midi. In fact, the longer it is the better, as the feeling of verticality will be much more evident.

The eternal dilemma: will a long skirt suit me? The answer is ABSOLUTELY YES, whatever your body is like. Why wouldn't one of the star garments of the summer look good on you? All you have to do is analyze your body carefully, find out what does it justice and what does not do it so much, and find out what type of long skirt suits you best . Not all are the same and some change in their qualities changes everything.
Just as we showed you what type of dress suited you best (for wide legs, with a tummy, holsters …) it happens with the skirt. There is no garment that resists us, we have the characteristics that we have. We give you the keys so that, from now on, you know how to choose your summer skirt like never before.
Long skirts: which one will suit me better?
First you have to burn this word: "E-QUI-LI-BRIO". Think that what is compensated is beautiful, balance is beauty and that is what we are going to look for . For example, if what we have is an excessively wide hip, we will try to add volume to the shoulder area to compensate. If our body is straight like a board, we will add volume to both shoulders and hips, marking the waist a lot so that it seems there is a difference.
Understanding this, applying it to skirts is not complicated at all. That is, if what you need is to hide volume in general, asymmetry will be your best ally. On the other hand, if we want volume, opt for skirts with a lot of flight, pleats, large tables … If you want to gain a few inches, nothing like adding a heel. If you want to be even more fashionable, bet on wedges and espadrilles.
