What is a pencil skirt?

Pencil skirt

@milova_4you

The pencil skirt was created by Christian Dior in 1940. It is also called a skirt-case. This thing is still popular among girls and women. From the classic model to the knitted in the scar - there are hundreds of options for "pencils". And all of them can be combined with different wardrobe items.

A pencil skirt is a form-fitting thing. It emphasizes the figure, the line of the waist and hips. Therefore, it is suitable for slender girls.

For example, with an hourglass or rectangle shape . But fat girls with a figure of the "triangle" type can also pay attention to this model, if they are correctly picked up. Also, a pencil skirt is suitable for owners of long and straight legs.

How to choose

By length

All models can be divided into mini, midi and maxi. But the classic length length is just above or just below the level of the knees. When choosing a length, pay attention to the material of the skirt: the better the quality, the better the thing looks.

The long model makes the figure elongated and slender, so it is suitable for girls with wide hips. And for narrow forms, the skirt, on the contrary, will add volume. Especially if it has a floral or geometric print.

Girls of short stature can look at the classic length of the skirt - on the palm above the knee. To complete the image will help heels or boats. The length of the mini will also make friends with a short or medium height. Such models can be worn with almost any shoe.

Another summer option is lace skirts. They are light, weightless, but you should be careful with them: after all, you can not combine them with every thing, so as not to visually make the image heavy. It will be good to combine with linen tops, T-shirts or shirts.

By style

A pencil skirt is suitable not only for slender girls. It will fit any type of figure. If you have wide hips and a thin waist, then choose a straight model. Take a closer look at high-quality fabrics that will keep the shape. Prints, draperies and overhead elements are best avoided. Choose natural colors: black, blue, khaki or gray.

For a figure without curves, models that taper to the bottom and fit the hips are suitable. It is better to choose a dense fabric. For example, tweed, corduroy or wool.

For girls with narrow hips and flat buttocks, it is better to choose narrow models. But classic black won't work here. Instead, pay attention to bright colors or print. For example, a check, geometric or floral print. Models made of leather or lace will look good.

If the waist, abdomen and chest are prominent parts of your body, then choose a skirt with a high waist and knee length or slightly higher. It will visually hide the stomach and narrow the waist. As for the color, it is better to give preference to dark shades: black, blue, burgundy. And choose a suit or suede fabric.

For a narrow and pronounced waist, any pencil skirt is suitable. It is created for this type of figure. Choose narrow models that emphasize the shapes. The length can also be any.

But it is not necessary to create a combination of "white top, black bottom". You can choose a bright skirt - yellow, red and green - and create an attractive and slightly bold image.

With boats you can make a feminine and elegant bow. In this case, shoes do not have to be picked up in the color of the shirt or skirt. You can play on the contrast and, for example, pick up bright red shoes for the black model. And to complement the image with the same bright red bag.

For business meetings, office everyday life and evening looks, choose classic black or beige shoes. The second option always looks sophisticated and visually lengthens the leg. You can choose interesting options for shoes with decorative elements. For example, with a strap or buckle. It's going to be interesting.

What shoes to wear in cold weather

You need to complete the image with the right shoes. The ideal option is boots, ankle boots or boots. It is better to choose models with heels, because they add a few centimeters to the legs and visually lengthen them. But girls with slender legs can wear rough shoes without heels.

Experimenting with color is not worth it. It is better to choose classic calm shades: black, white, gray, brown or burgundy. If you want to create a contrast, you can pick up shoes in the color of accessories - a bag or a scarf. If you wear ankle boots with a skirt, they can be supplemented with black tights.
