Let me start by describing first what a skirt is. A skirt is the lower part of a dress, or it can also be a separate garment on its own that can cover a person from the waist down. You can choose from among different types of skirts. Skirts are usually made of light to average weight fabrics like denim, worsted, jersey, or poplin. They can also be made of thin or clingy material. You can also pick from floor-length to micro-mini skirts. Wearing skirts, especially short ones, give you more freedom to move. Mini-skirts are comfortable outfits to wear during the hot months since they are lightweight and easy to wear. The problem starts when the skirt becomes too short for comfort. Skirts appear and feel so short when it keeps riding up as you move or walk. If you are not aware of the reasons why this happens, read them down below. The skirt material is thin. You might have noticed that short skirts made of light fabrics are usually the ones that ride up. You would not want to spend the whole day tending to your skirt to keep it down. So, make sure that the next time you wear one, it must be made of a thicker or heavier fabric. Denim is an ideal material for short skirts. The skirt is of the wrong size. You may be wondering why your skirt, which looked nice on you when you fitted it at the mall, is riding up as you walk. Your movements at the fitting cubicle were too limited to determine if that short skirt is the right size for you. It would help if maybe you try on your exact size and a size bigger. Get to know which size looks better on you. If the bigger size is not such a good fit but does not ride up, you still have enough material to adjust your skirt to make a proper fit. The skirt is the wrong style for your body shape. Each one of us has a unique body shape and build. So, it is quite possible to find a skirt that may not be the right style for your body shape, which may cause it to ride up your thigh. There are so many skirt styles to choose from. There will always be a lot more that would look good on you to wear comfortably and confidently. The skirt is just too short. Some skirts are just made too short. It may look like it is riding up, but there is definitely no way to go but up because there isn’t enough fabric to cover most parts of your thighs. Short skirts like these are the ones to be avoided because there is no way to fix them. Or you can layer them when wearing tights during the winter.
