This Summers Statement Skirt

[cassa333]

Thought about putting this in Fashion but it is a bit quiet.

I am looking at a small article on pg 41 of the Express about this Large print skirt.

They have called it a prom skirt!! Is that prom as in 'the school prom'? Because if it is then I think you would be a laughing stock if you wore it.

The girl in it looks like a bell and it does nothing to flatter her.

Why would anyone want to look like that?

can't answer your question without seeing it :-)

Have you got a link please?

[cassa333]

It was in the paper rather than online. But I'll see if I can find it.

#Prom' is really a reference to the design and shap rather than when/where you's wear it.

Maybe similar to this one? Sold out of course.

I think School Prom these days you associate with long ball gowns but I believe Prom skirt as you see it is from 50's and 60's. Just think about Grease and the School prom there.

Oh I think it's pretty! Wouldn't wear it with a block top, would pick out a colour from the flower detailing.

I don't know if that is the one featured in the Express, but know they mentioned 'print & ASOS'.

I like the idea of a "large print skirt", for those of us whose sight is not what it was.

fine if you're built like a pencil but curvy girls no,looks like one of those loo roll hiders x

I think the one in mamya's link is lovely. I wouldn't wear it though as I feel uncomfortable in anything too flouncy.

[mallyh]

It actually looks nicer in this picture.

The one in the Express looks awful. The angle they have shot it is so bad the front hem looks to be almost at her feet and the god awful top doesn't help.
