Longer skirts are so much more elegant. Personally I do not own any shorter than knee length. I find them to have a much more polished overall look and also look adequate with different kinds of shoes.
I detest the "look at me, I am so hot" thing.
Everyone notices people who are trying too hard, whether they have the kind of body to pull it off or not.
Longer skirt hem lengths are coming back. I say "Hooray!!!"
Mind you, I'm nearly 40, so I'm glad I can now try to look chic without revealing the cellulite.
My body shape is basically 'pear,' and hems just a little below the knee, seem like the most flattering. Maxi skirts, not so much.
What do you think of this trend? Is it a yay or a nay?
Nay.
You basically said it yourself: long skirts are for women who don't have the legs or the bod to pull-off wearing a short skirt.
Hey--I'm a guy. A Type A raging=hormone-perpetually-adolescent guy. Who digs women with long, toned, smooth, tanned legs in short skirts and flimsy summer dresses. Lucky for me, my wife has all that and also has a great selection of short skirts and dresses. (My favorite is this silk black spaghetti strap dinner dress thingie she sometimes wear when she does concerts.) Schwiing!
But I digress. Anyway, pencil me in for one big fat NAY in your poll!

So you'd rather see a woman in a short skirt whose body type doesn't work with said short skirt?

Elegance always rules.
As a straight guy, I agree. Sorry, I find these threads absolutely fascinating
Anyhow, longer length skirts seem to add more to the mystery in my opinion. Yes, a women in a mini skirt is nice but there is just no mystery to it. If that makes any sense.

Yes. A lot of the longer lengths look more graceful and/or tailored. The minis sometimes look just too casual, a bit like wearing shorts.
It's not just about maxi-length, it's about knee-length skirts as well.
I think they impart a much more polished and elegant look almost every time.
