Skirt-shorts can be combined with various details of the wardrobe. It looks great both with sportswear and with elements of evening dress. The pattern of the skirt-shorts is a modified pattern of the skirt-trousers.
The skirt-shorts are a shortened version of the skirt-trousers. This model arose in those days when women were looking for something to ride horses. Riding in an Amazon and ladies saddle is elegant but uncomfortable. It was not yet accepted to wear trousers at that time. I found a compromise - a skirt-trousers. The skirt-shorts are a later invention.
You can also sew a skirt-shorts at home, using a pattern of a skirt-trousers.
Having expanded the pattern of the skirt-trousers, it is necessary to divide its front half into three parts. Then you should separate the first third with a vertical line drawn from the fold line. The dart must be transferred to this line. Now you should carry out a similar construction on the back half of the pattern of the skirt-trousers.
As a result of these manipulations, vertical lines are obtained. On them it is necessary to make cuts from the bottom up and push them apart to the required width. The optimum width is at least 4 cm. The length of the cut depends on the depth of the dart. The deeper it is, the smaller the size should be.
The next step is to shorten the length of the skirt. After the pattern has been shortened, you can experiment with the cut and details of the "pant legs". Counter folds, tucks or pockets are welcome.
You can combine this combined type of clothing with various wardrobe details. Putting on a fur coat over such a toilet and complementing all this with high boots, you will get a catchy and extravagant outfit. In summer, skirt-shorts will look irresistible with a short top or tunic. Open legs, gilded with tan, will attract a lot of admiring glances.
This practical and original piece of wardrobe can be worn with a sports polo shirt or T-shirt. With a turtleneck, a skirt-trousers will look strict and will suit even the office. An elegant blouse and extravagant jewelry in combination with such a skirt is quite appropriate for a party.
This style goes well with a strict drape jacket or pullover. When it's damp and cool outside, you can go to a business meeting or take a walk in this outfit. Of course, we must remember about the compatibility of fabrics.
The experiment is possible not only with the details of the style, but also with the material. Almost any fabric can be. Skirt-shorts made of tweed, cashmere, drape, linen, cotton, silk and even guipure look great. In the light of today's fashion for transparent skirts, an organza skirt-shorts are quite possible.
