Gypsy skirts

4 replies

I'm aware that gypsy skirts probably had their day in about 2007 :) but I'm not a follower of fashion, and I like them so wear them loads in the summer, and I've never had trouble finding them.

I can probably call them maxi skirts if that sounds any more fashionable? :)

I'll still be wearing them, but just wondered if fashionistas will be pointing and laughing at me, or if a long, teired skirt could be considered a sort-of-summer-classic?

The problem is when something has been very much in fashion as they were in 2005 then they very quickly date and become very much 'out'. I wouldn't wear one and would assume anyone wearing one just wasn't bothered about fashion.

I think it is fine, I would just think it is a typical casual summer outfit

Oh dear, was it 2005? even worse!

Well, it's true, I'm not especially bothered about fashion, so that's OK.

I don't wear those leather belts made out of circles of leather that everyone wore with them back then.

I just think that long skirts have been worn for, what? 2000 years? must be fairly classic, right?
