Floor length chiffon skirt

Chiffon is a fabric traditionally used for sewing light, smart, business or casual wear. Initially, only silk fibers were used for the production of chiffon fabric, but over time they were replaced by cheaper artificial materials. Today, chiffon items can contain cotton, viscose, nylon and polyester.

Dresses, blouses, tops and, of course, light, airy skirts are sewn from chiffon. Our today's article is about chiffon long skirts. You will learn about the advantages and disadvantages of this type of clothing, about popular styles, selection rules, as well as about the most successful combinations.

As we said, modern chiffon is most often composed of several types of fibers. The ratio of various materials in the composition of a thing affects not only its cost, but also its quality characteristics.

Chiffon is a thin, translucent, almost weightless fabric. It drapes perfectly, so it is ideal for summer floor-length skirts, light and romantic. Chiffon things are very delicate, so they require a particularly careful attitude, but we will talk about this in more detail below.

The assortment of chiffon floor-length skirts is quite diverse. The choice of style will depend mainly on the characteristics of your figure. Consider several options that are fashionable this season:

• The asymmetrical skirt is a variable length model that modestly covers the legs on one side and playfully reveals them on the other. This style is best suited for tall girls with slender legs.
• Pleated is a skirt with a lot of pleats.This option adds extra volume to the lower body, making it great for skinny people with narrow hips. There is another important rule here: the smaller your height, the less fluffy the skirt should be.
• Skirt with a slit - one or two high cutouts on the skirt look very attractive. This solution is suitable for absolutely all types of figures. If you want slender legs to appear in the cut of the skirt, take care of at least a small heel.

In the summer, most of us strive to remove the clothes of boring monochrome colors to the far corner of the wardrobe and put on joyful, rich, bright and delicate colors. Buying a floor-length chiffon skirt is a great way to recharge your sunny, summer mood.

Pay attention to the most beautiful and unusual colors that designers have delighted us with in the new fashion season: ash pink, pale peach, scarlet, emerald green, electric blue, bright yellow, light green. A huge plus is that the skirt does not need to be matched to the complexion, so your choice is not limited by anything.

• Thin chiffon creates a feeling of simplicity and lightness, so such skirts should not be overloaded with unnecessary details: abundant decor, ruffles, fringes. This is exactly the case when conciseness is preferable.
• If you are the proud owner of a tall, slender figure, take a look at multi-layered models from several types of fabric. The combination of multi-colored fabrics in one skirt looks very beautiful and original.
• Girls with luxurious forms should avoid layering, as well as all kinds of elements that make the figure more voluminous. They should opt for straight or slightly flared skirts with soft horizontal pleats, solid or with a large pattern.

Chiffon skirts go well with a wide variety of clothing and accessories. For a top, you can wear a simple solid color T-shirt or a romantic lace top. For more formal occasions, a silk blouse with a long sleeve is suitable. In everyday life, you can wear a denim jacket or a leather jacket with a chiffon skirt, and a short jacket in the office.

There are no strict requirements for shoes either. Graceful shoes, heeled sandals, ballet flats or sandals all look equally good with a chiffon skirt. It is better to choose a bag that is not very large - one that you can hold in your hands or hang on your shoulder.

As for jewelry and accessories, their choice will be determined by the format of the event and the overall style of the image. Depending on the occasion, it can be jewelry or bright, plastic or wooden jewelry.

To clean a chiffon skirt from dirt, you need to hand wash it in warm water or dry-clean it. Do not use bleaches or stain removers, as they can damage the delicate material. Laundry detergent can be normal or for delicate fabrics.

You can dry a chiffon skirt in a horizontal or vertical position, but always away from direct sunlight. Before ironing, it is recommended to moisten the product and turn it on the wrong side.
