Miniskirts

Sometimes less is really more: An old rule of thumb of the economy was that in good times the skirt hem slipped along with economic data. That was the case in the 1950s and 1960s, for example, when really short skirts really came into fashion for the first time. The connection is clear: mini skirts stand for joie de vivre, they are a little daring and self-confident - that's why they became ‘en vogue’ at a time when women were strongly insisting on their rights. Since times of economic propserity, skimpy skirts have never really gone out of fashion, because it has been clear since then that women are allowed to wear what they want, when they want - and that their style and confident sex appeal are always well received.

Staging the scene

The mini skirt has become a real classic. What used to be a bit wicked and daring now belongs in almost every wardrobe. As well as mainstream fashion, several subcultures have also discovered mini skirts for themselves. The mini skirt is popular with goths, among others, and also emos and supporters of cosplay & Co. who like to incorporate models that can be exhibited with unusual outfits. A short skirt also cuts a good figure in rock and metal shops, as well as on evening tours through bars and clubs with your best friends.

In addition, friends of rock 'n roll and rockabilly often swear by short skirts in an A-cut. But even in everyday life they are no longer uncommon and accordingly designed so they can also be worn on more festive occasions.

Skirts for every occasion

The mini skirt blends in well with many styles, from comfortable yet exciting everyday looks to unusual party outfits. Depending on the occasion you want to wear it, there are various options. For a typical outfit with a mini skirt, it's best to combine it with a wide, quite long top - or even a sweater. Submarine cutouts, which often leave one shoulder free, are a popular choice. In cooler temperatures, leggings are ideal, otherwise you can wear tights or just leave your legs free.

Scene outfits are as different as the scenes themselves and leave even more scope for individual style accents. From an indie or skater outfit with a loose top to rocky versions with a denim skirt and band shirt. For the latter, for example, the widely exhibited and elaborately designed skirts from KuroNeko are ideal, which are ideal for emo or gothic outfits.
