I would call that a trumpet skirt.</p> <p>Yes, I've noticed this silhouette a lot when I am shopping online. I like the VC one you linked to, Diana! I am excited about this silhouette too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362821 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 19:27:46 +0000 Astrid 1362821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Boden has a velvet one in their new collection, I really like the look. They call it a pencil skirt though. Although I think it counts as a trumpet skirt, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362816 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 19:13:07 +0000 krishnidoux 1362816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, those are really really nice. Especially the first one. I want one, in this very color too!<br />Firecracker, I agree about the shorter length. I have a couple of knee length&nbsp;"bell" shape skirts and have the hardest time styling them, let alone actually wear them.&nbsp;<br />Diana, the second skirt is sublime on you. And the way you have styled it is very appealing: relaxed, yet pulled together. I like the idea of a slightly boho shirt and low heeled shooties. The skirt is a show in itself and I find it very clever to keep the rest in muted, neutral tones, yet not too strict.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362792 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 18:36:03 +0000 Diana 1362792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd actually wear booties or mid-calf boots, I think.&nbsp; I am not a huge fan of the skirt + boots + no visible legs look.&nbsp; I like to see a little tights or leg in between.&nbsp; </p> <p>Here are a couple of outfits with my existing trumpet skirts.&nbsp; The black one is REALLY old, probably from 2006 or even earlier.&nbsp; It's quite beat up and also a bit tighter than it was back then (it's jersey so still comfortable, but not as fluid as I'd like any more); I'm thinking the VC one I linked might be a good replacement. The blue one is pretty old too, probably 5 years or so.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362784 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 18:25:37 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1362784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I hope so! How fun. I had a long trumpet skirt in the early 2000s that I loved, and I always received compliments when I wore it. I found the shorter lengths hard to wear, though--but that was pre-boot for me (warmer climate). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362782 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 18:25:35 +0000 Suz 1362782@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look of them, too. I've also noticed the long sweeping bias cut&nbsp;A-line skirts....I really like these also. They feel sort of equestrienne, </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362779 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 18:23:22 +0000 abc 1362779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love trumpet skirts too. &nbsp;I have held on to 2 from several (ahem, yeah, SEVeral) years back. &nbsp;The silhouette works for me. &nbsp;Love the one Diana linked to. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362735 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 17:00:14 +0000 krishnidoux 1362735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Diana, and this skirt would fit you so well too!<br />I notice the flare starts higher up on thighs than the 2005-6 version. Am I wrong? This one looks incredibly&nbsp;fluid and comfortable.<br />And what shoes would you wear with it? Long boots?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362719 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 16:36:07 +0000 Diana 1362719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've noticed a few of them popping up here and there, more in designer collections and a few finally trickling down to lower price points.&nbsp; I am hoping they come back because they are one of my favorite skirt silhouettes!&nbsp; Here's one that I am eyeing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362717 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 16:33:44 +0000 krishnidoux 1362717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for your answers.&nbsp;I'd say I noticed it online more than IRL too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362593 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 13:27:56 +0000 thimblelina 1362593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just thrifted a black ponte one new with the tags from Macy's; it was on their website s/s. I'm enjoying it! I still have a stretch suede one from 2006 or so that I love for winter layering. If you have wide shoulders &amp; narrow hips that little extra volume at the bottom can be so helpful in balancing out a silhouette. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362587 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 13:19:27 +0000 sparlingo 1362587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely noticing them in the blogosphere, if that counts for anything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362586 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 13:18:27 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1362586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've noticed that as well... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/are-trumpet-skirts-back-in-style#post-1362564 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 12:36:48 +0000 krishnidoux 1362564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought they were so 2005. But lately, they seem to be resurfacing. Is it just me, or are they coming back? </p>
