There are some outfits that are associated with the feeling of carefree joy that only happens in childhood. Many women of fashion will take a sun skirt to such things without hesitation. Probably every girl had such a skirt - remember how beautifully she fluttered if she circled around her axis?

However, it would be a big mistake to believe that a sun skirt is an exclusively childish outfit. Many girls and women remain loyal to this original skirt, which always looks spectacular and stylish.

In this article we will tell you about the existing varieties of sun skirts, as well as how and with what this piece of clothing should be worn.

Who are they suitable for?

Thanks to the special cut and material, the sun skirt keeps its shape perfectly. It does not fit the figure at all, so with its help you can hide the fullness in the hips.

But it should be remembered that this is a volumetric model that visually makes the lower body heavier, so it is very important to balance it with the right top.

Sun skirts are great for skinny girls who lack volume in the hips. With the help of such a skirt, an inverted triangle shape (wide chest and narrow hips) can be made similar to the "hourglass" beloved by many (luxurious breasts and lush hips).

Peculiarities

The main feature of the sun skirt is its unusual cut. Traditionally, it was sewn without side seams. To do this, you need to cut out an even circle from a piece of fabric, cut a hole in the center for the waist and sew an elastic band into it.

Today, there are modifications of the sun skirt, sewn from several wedges. But even then, when unfolded, the product will have the shape of a circle.

The sun skirt can "sit" not only on an elastic band, but also on a yoke. Such a skirt looks especially interesting on a high waistline, for example, with a corset belt (this is, moreover, a good way to shape the waistline).

Summer models

The sun skirt can be both a winter and a summer version of the outfit. Summer models feature lighter fabrics and brighter colors.

Sun skirts from summer collections are usually made in rich, joyful colors. The prevailing colors are those associated with the sun, warmth, the atmosphere of vacation - yellow, orange, scarlet, azure, green and other juicy shades.

Prints and patterns on skirts are also, in one way or another, associated with summer looks - these can be floral ornaments, patterns with a marine theme, fruit and berry designs, images of tropical birds, etc.

High-waisted

High-waisted skirts have been very popular lately, and you can expect them to remain relevant for several more fashion seasons.

The high-waisted sun skirt looks very advantageous due to the fact that it is able to visually adjust the figure.

Due to the high waist of the skirt, the waist looks narrower than it really is. The flared skirt, combined with the accentuated waist, makes the proportions of the figure more harmonious.

With a train

One of the most interesting modifications of sun skirts is an asymmetrical skirt that is elongated at the back. The long hem creates the effect of a train, which makes the skirt look very unusual.

To make the train flow beautifully, soft, loose fabrics, for example, chiffon, are chosen for sewing such skirts. If the material is very thin, then the skirt is complemented by a matching cover made of opaque fabric.

In front, such a skirt can be very short, flirtatiously exposing the legs above the knees. The length of the train can vary from a very short "ponytail" to a hem that falls to the floor. The latter option is usually chosen for the most special occasions, for example, for a wedding.

With pockets

Pockets are an element of clothing that performs not so much a practical as a decorative function. First of all, this concerns patch pockets, which are specially made in such a way as to serve as a bright accent.

Patch pockets add volume to the hips, so skirts with such a bright detail are usually chosen by skinny girls with narrow hips. If this part of the body causes you some doubts, take a closer look at models with mortise pockets.

Models with elastic

The classic sun skirt is exactly the model with an elastic band. This option is especially convenient for children, since the rubber band allows the child to quickly remove and put on skirts on their own.

However, adult girls will also like this model, since a loose elastic band does not create discomfort in the waist area (therefore, you can not be afraid to gain a few kilograms).

If you are fond of needlework, then it will not be difficult for you to sew a skirt-sun with an elastic band, since the pattern of such a product is very simple.

With folds

Large pleats are the most recognizable feature of sun skirts. Thanks to the folds, the product turns out to be voluminous and keeps its shape well. At the same time, sun skirts made from different types of fabrics look completely different.

Thin materials allow for small, soft, flowing folds. From denser fabrics, hard, body waves are obtained. If you put the skirt on a yoke, the folds will be tighter, and if you choose an elastic band instead of a high belt, the folds will be smaller and softer.

Fabrics

So, the appearance and quality characteristics of the sun skirt will largely depend on the type of fabric. In order for the skirt to retain its original shape, the fabric must be dense enough.Let's consider several materials that seem to us the most suitable for a sun skirt.

From tulle

This fabric is well known to those who are associated with the world of ballet, because it is from it that tutus for ballerinas are sewn. Tulle is a translucent mesh material based on a polyester base. It is quite tough, so it retains its shape well and does not deform.

If you want to sew a tutu skirt in the shape of the sun, then you will need several layers of tulle. The skirt will turn out to be very voluminous and airy - it will look incredibly impressive.

Denim

An interesting model in casual style - a half-sun denim skirt. This material is ideal for creating such a skirt, because it is quite dense, but elastic at the same time. Denim sun skirts can be worn at any time of the year. They go well with any top, be it a warm sweater or a light top.

Leather

Leather things always attract attention, so not every girl will dare to wear a skirt made of leather. True, a romantic sun skirt does not look at all as daring as a tight-fitting mini, so even those who are afraid of daring experiments can try on this option. For a softer, more delicate look, choose models in lighter leathers.

Crochet

Those who know how to handle crochet and yarn can knit a sun skirt with their own hands. Openwork models look very beautiful and unusual. In addition, a self-created skirt will definitely be one of a kind. To keep the knitted sun skirt from looking too heavy, choose thin threads and loose patterns.

Popular colors

The harmony of the image largely depends on the color scheme of the outfit: it is important that all its elements go well with each other. Each new season, certain shades fall into favor, but you need to take into account not only fashion trends, but also whether this color is right for you.

Black

The black skirt is a timeless classic that always remains relevant. The black sun skirt will be appropriate in a variety of situations: in the office, at school, in the theater, in a restaurant or at an informal party.

The advantage of black is that it looks great paired with any color, so choosing a top and accessories for a black sun skirt will never be a problem for you.

White

White is perceived by many as the absolute opposite of black. It is associated with purity and tenderness, therefore it is especially popular among very young, romantic young ladies.

A fluffy white skirt-sun will make you look like a fragile ballerina or princess from a fairy tale. In terms of color combinations, white is as good as black, so feel free to experiment to find the most winning combination.

Red

A girl wearing a red fluffy skirt simply cannot fail to attract everyone's attention. If you like to attract admiring glances, be sure to look at the red sun skirts.

The palette of shades of red is very diverse, so you can choose what you prefer - deep burgundy or delicate coral. The upper part of the ensemble can be a thing in monochrome or, conversely, a colorful, bright top.

Blue

For most of us, blue evokes a sense of calm and serenity. It is associated with the blue of the sky and the depths of the sea. Nature itself tells us the most beautiful color combinations involving blue.

See how these color pairs look harmoniously: blue with white, blue with green, blue with yellow, blue with turquoise. A blue sun skirt can be, including a denim one.

Green

Green has been one of the most popular colors for several fashion seasons. One by one, designers are rediscovering shades of green for us: emerald, olive, pistachio, apple green, coniferous, turquoise, etc.

A green sun skirt looks very impressive even in combination with the most laconic top, for example, with a white shirt or with a black turtleneck.

Length

In stores and clothing catalogs, sun skirts of various lengths are presented - from extreme mini to modest maxi. And if the desired model is not found, you can always find a suitable pattern and sew the skirt yourself or order it in a fashionable atelier.

Long to the floor

A long skirt is a great tool for creating a sophisticated, feminine look. Such models are especially good for the summer.

A floor-length skirt made of thin, flowing fabric looks very beautiful, especially if an expressive color scheme is chosen, consisting of rich, rich shades. Layered models that resemble gypsy skirts look more extravagant.

Midi

Midi is considered the classic length for a sun skirt. It was in this embodiment that this model gained popularity. The average length is good because it suits almost all girls, regardless of build. The knee-length flared skirt can be combined with any footwear - from flat ballerinas to high heeled boots.

Short

A mini skirt is a favorite piece of clothing for many girls. Few of the fair sex deny themselves the pleasure of flaunting open legs at least several times a year.

Short sun skirts are usually very voluminous, they visually weigh the hips, so this model must be handled with extreme caution.

What to wear with?

The sun skirt looks very interesting in itself, so the problem of choosing a top for it is very easy to solve. This can be a simple T-shirt or T-shirt, a formal shirt, or a smart blouse. The sun skirt looks stylish with a denim shirt or a vest.

In cool seasons, this skirt can be worn with a cropped jacket, cardigan or fitted sweater. A denim jacket or a leather jacket styled as a leather jacket will also be in place.

The choice of accessories and jewelry is at your discretion - depending on the desired look. It can be leather straps, bright scarves, sunglasses, bags, stylish jewelry.

Shoes

The sun is a cut that looks great with shoes in a wide variety of styles. A sun skirt with classic shoes or graceful high-heeled sandals is probably the most harmonious combination.

However, the combination of such a skirt with cowboy-style boots, sports sneakers or high "military" lace-up boots looks no less interesting.

Flat shoes are also not contraindicated here, so feel free to wear a sun skirt with ballet flats, sandals or moccasins.
