Skirt

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A skirt is a tube- or cone-shaped garment that hangs from the waist and covers all or part of the legs. In European culture, skirts are usually considered women''s clothing. However, there are exceptions. The kilt is a traditional men''s garment in Scotland, and some fashion designers, such as Jean-Paul Gaultier, have shown men''s skirts. At its simplest, a skirt can be a draped garment made out of a single piece of material (such as pareos), but most skirts are fitted to the body at the waist and fuller below, with the fullness introduced by means of dart, gores, pleats, or panels. Modern skirts are usually made of light to mid-weight fabrics, such as denim, jersey, worsted, or poplin. Skirts of thin or clingy fabrics are often worn with slips to make the material of the skirt drape better and for modesty.
