A mini skirt is a great choice for the warm season. It is not hot in it, it opens the legs seductively and can be combined with almost any type of top. Of course, after many years of fashion for floor-length dresses and midi skirts, it’s hard for us to immediately switch to the fact that the mini length is back in trend. However, you should get used to it and diversify your wardrobe with playful dresses and beautiful short skirts. Today we are discussing them. Let’s go!
COLORS AND MATERIALS OF FASHIONABLE MINI SKIRTS
Although the Pantone Color Institute announced bright yellow and medium gray as the colors of 2021 at the beginning of the year, by spring the number of trending shades has increased exponentially. Bright colors and bold combinations of shades are popular now. For example, a purple or magenta miniskirt looks good with a mint or apricot shirt. Turquoise, sky blue, emerald, coral red and fuchsia skirts are also in trend. And you can also pick up a short skirt made of eco leather in yellow, orange or mustard: these sunny colors make the unusual material even brighter! Among the interesting materials of the skirts are also eco suede, coarse linen fabric, patent leather and coarse knitted fabric.
THE IMPORTANCE OF PROPORTIONS
A mini skirt is a rather tricky piece of clothing: with an unsuccessful top, you can shift the proportions and worsen the visual perception of the body shape. For example, if you are short and choose a short skirt, I advise you to choose a model with a high waist and tuck the top into it. Otherwise, the waist will visually shift lower, and the legs will appear short. Also, if you buy a mini skirt that is tapered to the bottom and sits on the hips, you can make the figure square, especially if you have athletic calves. It is better to choose models with air: an A-line skirt, a short pleated skirt or a mini babydoll or flare skirt.
TRENDY COMBINATIONS OF SKIRT AND TOP
What to wear with a mini to stay on the crest of a fashion wave? Successful miniskirt looks include crop tops with wide spaghetti straps, crop tops with puff sleeves and dropped shoulders, white oversize printed T-shirts (they look especially good tucked into denim mini skirts). Well, if it’s cool outside, combine a mini skirt with a turtleneck, a T-shirt and a jacket or a T-shirt and an oversize denim jacket.
Mini dresses deserve special attention – this is a real hit of the coming summer! Unlike a mini skirt, with a short dress you don’t have to bother with choosing the top: just choose accessories and shoes. In the 2021 season, take a closer look at trapeze dresses, mini slip dresses made of silk or soft rayon, short oversize T-shirt dresses (yes, short length and oversize also go well together). You will love this summer!
