Twiggy was the swinging 60′s top model and is still going strong as the face of Marks and Spencer, a mid price range UK high street shop. She has recently pronounced that only the very thin or the very young can get away with wearing mini skirts. So, where does that leave the rest of us mere mortals? Actually, if you can remember when Twiggy hit the scenes you should have hung up your mini-skirt years ago! In fact, if middle aged spread has hit your knees, and unless you are Demi Moore and can afford to have them liposuctioned, then you are probably quite happy covering them up.

Long skirts seem to be predominant on the catwalks this season but can everybody carry them off? If you are a businesswoman, for example, turning up for that so important business meeting wearing a mini skirts down to your ankles, will mean you probably won’t be taken too seriously. You could end up looking like an ageing hippy and when were hippies ever taken seriously? Although we ladies may hate to admit it, in the business world, women have to dress smartly and elegantly to merit consideration. I am not saying that you won’t get noticed in a mini skirt and a low cut top but that is that the kind of notice you really want to get? A jacket or blouse with a tailored knee skimming skirt is more the look to go for. It makes you appear like a grown up (even if you don’t always feel like one!) whereas a long skirt gives you more of the “little girl dressing up as a princess” image. But please, avoid calf length outfits if you have slightly thickened ankles.

But, a long Fashion Skirt or dress for evening wear is perfect as it does indeed make you feel more feminine and princessy and the added bonus is that it can cover up a multitude of real or imaginary imperfections such as pudgy knees and those “oops, should have booked a wax” legs without having to resort to hideous thick granny tights! If you are a petite woman under 1 metre 60 cms then if you must wear a long dress, do wear high heels otherwise you will look even shorter! After all the look you are surely seeking is Snow White not one of the seven dwarves!
