Skirt: The discreet charm of the paradox

Skirt for her nearly two centuries of history never became an absolute hit. Sometimes famous designers included it in their collections, but it has been regarded not as the overriding trend, and how nice stylistic trick of a couturier. Paradox this thing is that it has never been the favorite mode, but at the same time, never left her. Women are more likely to acquire a skirt-pants to wear them during the holiday, travel, or as working clothes.

It is interesting that the word "pants", meaning of Turkish origin, literally translated as "double skirt". Do not even need to look for explanations of how trousers were first: It was due to the skirt, and, indeed, own pants and skirts are for each foot. In 1830, some Dutch put on a dress that would today call a skirt-pants to ride on city streets by bicycle. But the bold move has caused women so disproportionate reaction from her fellow citizens that the city led to the restoration of order had to call firefighters.
 
Then in 1911 the Parisian fashion house developed several models of skirts, trousers: They were long, wide and rather strict, but they appear in public dare, only a few ladies. Compliments for their courage, they did not get: On the contrary, they all looked with contempt and poked them with his fingers.

Normal Symbiosis 

The dictionary gives the concept of fashion skirt the following explanation: "sport ladies skirt. trouser cut under the folds can be seen only by walking". In the traditional version of the skirt hugs the figure from the waist up to most convex points of the abdomen, thighs and buttocks, then free falls to the line of seats and the bottom line.

Being a symbiosis of direct double-seamed skirt and ordinary women trousers, this model combines the detail and order, and other products. As usual pants, she is just as practical and comfortable. Free and flying shape skirts suitable for women with virtually any shape, as an ideal can hide even the most serious shortcomings.

It is curious that such garments as culottes, has already appeared and mystical significance. For example, one of the most popular dream book says: If a young woman has a dream in which she wears a similar outfit, then it certainly has problems with the choice of attitudes. Maybe she vainly tries to seem all a strong woman, while in fact in dire need of strong male shoulder.
