Skirts Fitting Guide
|
Skirts fitting guide gives you useful advice for the perfect fit of your skirts.
Waistband:
A good fit at the waist is very important.
Try the skirt on to see if it feels comfortable when both standing and sitting.
You should be able to put a finger between the waistband and your waist and also consider that there is enough space to wear a shirt or a blouse inside your skirt.
Lining:
The lining should feel comfortable on your skin and not be too tight.
If you sit down and get up again the skirt should slide back smoothly in the right position.
Also see that the lining attachments make no ugly crinkles on the shell fabric.
Side Seams:
Side seams should lay flat and fall straight from the waist to the hem except from special styles with unusual side seams.
Look for a smooth run of the side seam with no crinkles.
The shape of the side seam should fit perfect to the shape of your hips.
Darts:
If the skirt has front or back darts, they should lay flat and make no pleats when you wear the skirt.
Hem:
When you look at the hem from the side, the run of the hemline should be even and smooth all around (except from styles with an asymmetrical hemline).
Especially make sure that the hem doesn`t roll outside on the front or back and on the side seams.
