Short or mini skirt could easily be considered a symbol of the liberation of women. It shortened not immediately, at some point reaching a pinnacle in the fifties, later returned in the eighties. Today, short skirts is a common detail of a young girl wardrobe, made from denim, leather, cotton, paired with crop tops and t-shirts or elegant blouses or sweaters for a balance.
If you are still afraid to wear stylish skirts above the knee, try to reconsider your view on this clothing, which not necessarily looks defiant. For example, to reduce the degree of sexiness of short skirts, avoid slim designs, instead opt for A-line pieces. Also play on contrasts: if you chose a short leather skirt, wear it with a crop top, knitted chunky sweater or long cardigan.
