OK, I'm calling to it. The seasonal competition for new exceptional fashion name States above. And the winner is the origami skirt.
Origami skirt hits that sweet spot: oh?so?buyable is a slightly altered voice but not completely unknown, with a name that makes it sound more exciting and daring than it really is. Origami skirt is a hybrid of two established seems, namely the pencil-skirt-with-Division and the wrap skirt. The pencil-skirt-with-split, borrows the form-fitting silhouette with the suggestion of extra leg (and maybe more) that the rift is likely. From wrap skirt, borrows a silhouette slightly more cutting-edge architecture.
The end result is a flattering shaped skirt which can seem precise Split, intelligent and rather exotic. The funny name adds the finishing touch.
What's more, origami is more than just a silly name. Preen's skirt I wear here really is bent, rather than was cut. Behind the split is a second layer, a thin layer of thigh snakeskin printed. This is genius, because it solves the age-old practice issue with split skirt, which is that a split that looks positively demure when viewed in the mirror of a dressing room takes on a very different character when you sit on a train, or in a conference room, and the glimpse of thigh becomes an eyeful.
One of my pet hates is clothes that you constantly fussing with them. That type of clothes are distracting so much worse, and you simply can't look chic and elegant, while pulling the hem.
The best film for an origami skirt is an upper half that is all straight lines and symmetry – a shirt buttoned-up or a simple crew neck t-shirt. No floppy or floaty will kill the impact, so that the overall impression is rather messy. Simple flat-soled shoes are also important, rather than nothing and set or tied up. Origami requires coolness, see? That is why it is not only a good aspect, but rather a good look with a very good name.
