Can this high-low skirt trend just stop. Right now. Please.
I'm not a fan.
Because really, it's annoying when I'm shopping and I see a super cute skirt, only to pull it out and one side trails the floor while the other side is above the knees.
Let's just look at this objectively for a moment.............(go google a picture of a high-low skirt or something)....................... it's not cute. Do you see what I mean? It's ridiculous.
My brothers call it a mullet skirt.
And just like the mullet, in a few years, everybody will be making fun of it.
I'm not sure how this originated. Was it a burst of creative inspiration... Or did somebody not know how to cut and sew a strait line?
Maybe all us shoppers should go on a sort of strike, and not buy anymore of these mullet skirts. Then maybe things will go back to normal, and the hems will go back to strait.
I'd like that.
That is all.
Signed,

Odd. One of the good things from living in the West, I miss all the new fashion trends. But, seriously, someone needs to teach fashion designers how to sew.
ReplyDeleteThe concept of the "high-low" skirt is actually not a modern one. It originated in the 1920's when young ladies sought to cast off all of the former guidelines for fashion and do something wild and never before seen. Granted, the skirts back then did not exhibit such a drastic difference in hem length from front to back as they do today, but that is where the concept of what we refer to as a "high-low skirt" was born. After the "party" of the 1920's ended and people moved into the 1930's with the Great Depression, hemlines grew to be sensible once again.
