What is a godet skirt style?

A godet skirt style hugs the hips and features triangular pieces of fabric called godets, creating fullness at the hem. The triangular fabric inserts give skirts and dresses extra movement and swing. The more godet pieces the skirt has the more flare the skirt has around the hemline. Godet style skirts can have sheer or lightweight fabric godets — silk, satin or lace — in matching or contrasting colors. Dresses and skirts with godet inserts are fun and fabulous on the dance floor.

Can short women wear midi skirts?
Midi skirts hit at the mid calf area of the leg making you appear shorter. Perfect for tall women. In general midi length skirts are not very flattering on short females unless they are slim. If you have a few extra pounds on your frame a midi length skirt will make you look shorter and heavier. Midi skirts look great with fitted or cropped tops. Change your look by pairing them with different footwear and accessories. Try everything on and do a mirror test to see how any style looks on you. Always accentuate the positive! Tip: Style a midi skirt with a t-shirt and sneakers for a modern look.

How can I determine what hemline is best for me?
Hemlines go up and down. The length of your hemline should be determined by your height, what figure type you have and the occasion for which you are wearing the outfit rather than your age or trends. Most women find “at the knee” the most flattering hem length. At the knee means a little above the knee, at mid knee or a little below the knee. The best way to decide on a hem length is to try different lengths on and look in a mirror. In general mini or micro mini skirts are not very flattering if you are over 25. Short women should avoid midi length skirts. The taller you are the longer your hem can be and still look flattering, try a mid calf length. Accentuate the positive. Knees can be ugly and you do not want them to be exposed.
