Topshop, House of Holland, Udon Choi at New York Fashion Week Voluminous dirndl skirts are the must have item for this Spring/Summer. It seems the skirts pay homage to the 50’s feminist but with a twist. Black velvet, PVC and shiny satin give the elegant skirt and modern-day grungy twist.Whatever your figure, the dirndl skirt is great way to elongate your legs and make you look for feminine. I for one can’t wait to try this trend. Here’s a tip though, opt for a style that sits on the hips and preferably with low pockets to nail the grunge-meets-50s look.
