Is there a necessity to say those 70’s and 80’s trends are back in fashion industry? The look they carry makes us accept this fact. All we are doing is just adding some more color and life to the existing style and making it an all new trend… and one more thing, all these styles include that traditional touch as well. So, let us find out with what we can experiment this season;

There are mid-length cuts, hitting calf’s halfway between the knee and ankle; there are slim-fit tube skirts, as well as voluminous numbers; there are A-line versions that fall to just under the knee. What there isn't, though, is the great swathes of thigh that we associate with summer dressing, the micro-minis and the hot pants, the other terrifyingly unbearable staples of hot weather and cool kids. Something has changed in the fashion consciousness.

"Long skirts have a long history to do with modesty and status," explains Caroline Evans, professor of fashion history at Central Saint Martins. "There was an increased focus on legs before the First World War, with skirts designed to be seen in motion. Then, in the Twenties, skirt length was linked to women being more active, with sport and dancing."

And then there's the fact that many catwalk styling’s saw the long skirt paired with things that were decidedly drab, such a sloppy jumpers or cropped retro knits – in the case of the Jil Sander show, vivid, jewel-colored skirts were worn with plain white T-shirts, of the sort you might normally wear to the gym, or to bed. This new trend is no hi-octane glitz, Baden-Baden maxi-dress revival. The Independent fashion desk is loath; in fact, to even use the word "maxi", so tainted has it become by the likes of Coleen Rooney and Holly Willoughby.

"I like dressing it down with a simple T-shirt or loose silk shirt for an easy, relaxed feel," says Vogue's fashion director Kate Phelan of hers. "Long skirts can be practical but also very stylish – just keep it simple and wear them like you wear your jeans for day."

They're also, contrary to popular myth, easy to pull off, regardless of shape and stature. "If you're petite, go for an A-line midi," adds Miranda Almond. "If you're curvy, choose a more drape fabric – they're incredibly flattering to wear, especially for anyone worried about their shape, and make you feel covered yet fashionable."

For anyone less than Amazonian, a platform wedge is both current and convenient when it comes to puddles; meanwhile, a mid-length skirt will look both preppy and chic worn with rolled-down socks and flat brogues. "Team a long skirt with a wedge," counsel’s founder of my-wardrobe.com Sarah Curran, "and then nip in the waist with a belt for a more defined shape. Throw on a white blazer for a chic, sophisticated work wear look."

Longer length skirts have been confined to the fashion hinterland for so long that there is a generation of young women who haven't even tried them out.

So try them out. They are easy to handle and carry, flexible to wear and most important, would be just perfect for you as well as economical… all you need is 2 perfect skirts and 5 to 6 trendy tops… that’s it… you can also team up your kurtis…

So, go ahead with your age old mantra… mix and match and be trendy as usual, yet unusual!
