Long Story or Short

A long skirt touches the ankle. Let a flared skirt touch the floor; it looks beautiful. But make sure you lift it up while walking outdoors.

Flaunt your legs in a short skirt, be it a mini or a micro. Don't know how short a mini skirt should be? Wear one and stand straight; your index finger should touch the skin on your thigh and not the skirt.

A micro mini skirt can be as short as you want it to be, Ideally, when you sit, it should just about cover your underwear.

Last but definitely not the least, as the name goes, a knee length skirt is one that ends at the knee.
