WOMEN FASHION IS CIRCLE SKIRT GOOD FOR FASHION....??

This Fifties-Style Circle Skirt Is Your One (Very Wearable) Take-Away From Calvin Klein

It's about American horror and American beauty,' Raf Simons said of his Calvin Klein show. 'Fashion tries to hide the horror and embrace only beauty. But they are both a part of life. This collection is a celebration of that: a celebration of American life.'

Yet in amongst the reworked Carrienightdresses (goodbye prom queen drenched in blood, hello delicate evening-wear), The Shining's Shelley Duvall-esque primary-coloured pinafores, Andy Warhol prints and lashings of Americana, it can be difficult to pin down exactly what style you'll be wearing/stealing from Calvin Klein come spring 2018.

Anne-Marie Curtis, comes in. Of the show last night in New York, she said: 'it was a darker riff of last season, but for Spring/Summer the show was all aboutbright colours, all-American girls like Kaia Gerber and these incredible statement fringe bags that almost popped off the runway.'

Last February marked ex-Dior designer Raf Simons' debut show for the all-American brand. What with with his subtle subversion of workman denim, western shirts and tailored coats, it was widely considered a triumph, which is perhaps why Simons has picked up where he left off.

'This feeling of the American dream – and a more overt Americana – is obviously something he's really going to drill down into,' Curtis says. 'It wasn't just a one season thing – that's what Raf sees as the Calvin aesthetic.'

But her biggest takeaway?

These fifties-style circle skirts.

And despite horror movie imagery, the show 'really embraced American culture in a positive way. With the country being such a mess, it's a reminder of the things we love about American culture.'

Why are they coming in trends-:

A poodle skirt is a wide swing felt skirt of a solid color (often pink or powder blue) displaying a design appliquéed or transferred to the fabric.The design was often a coiffed poodle. Later substitutes for the poodle patch included flamingoes, flowers, andhot rod cars. Hemlines were to the knee or just below it.

The skirt was easy for people to make at home, since the design was simple and the materials easily available.

A popular article during the early-mid 1900’s, this trend has been brought back for its comfortable features and basic pattern.

“They’re really popular because they have a type of timeless look so they never really go out of style,” sophomore Leslie Altamirano said.

The name comes from the type of skirt that most female figure skaters wear. Simple yet complex in every way possible, the skater skirt is easy to wear and gives the wearer an uptown fashionable look.

“I like them because they are cute, flowy, not too short and not too long,” junior Nancy Yang said. “They go well with a lot of things too.”

The skirt is a single piece of fabric cut into the shape of a circle with a smaller circle inside it, so that the person can wear it. According to Yang, this clean and classic look goes well with a large number of fashion articles, making it an effortless procedure to change into in the morning.

“The skirt is super easy to put on, it takes like five seconds just to slip it on and choosing something to match with it is also really easy depending on the color and print your skirt has,” Altamirano said.

Movie stars commonly wore this skirt, and it featured widely in magazines andadvertising, and many were eager to keep up with Hollywood's fashions, adding to its popularity.
