Buy long skirts - beautiful skirts at great prices
Welcome to our little bazaar!!
There is something very cool - and cool looking - about a billowy cotton skirt that reaches to midcalf or the ankles. Women who live in hot climates have always known this. Aside from their practicality and graceful line, however, the preponderance of long skirts signifies that, in the fashion world, a healthy freedom of choice abounds. Once upon a time, a hot new trend tended to be overwhelming. Remember the 60's, when any skirt that couldn't be shortened to well above the knee was relegated to the trash heap?
These days, such a skirt is still worn - unshortened, and without the slightest suggestion of being out of step.
During the post-WWII era, high fashion houses took advantage of the hunger for something new and once again re-invented the skirt. Christian Dior can be said to have created what became known as the New Look around 1947; this look included long, wide skirts, and a cinched waist. These full skirts were popular for more than their sheer femininity; they were also a joyful reaction to the end of WWII fabric rationing.
While Dior's full-skirted look isn't seen very often these days, long skirts are still quite popular. A long skirt paired with a fancy blouse makes for an excellent formal outfit. Take that same long skirt and throw on a t-shirt, and you have a great outfit for weekends or less formal events. At thelittlebazaar.com, we love helping our customers create memorable outfits that are as stylish as they are exotic.
