Styling Tips

Let’s start by discussing some simple tips!

  • Find the style that best suits your figure. These skirts come in many shapes and sizes. Experiment with silhouettes that will flatter your particular figure. A “poufy” voluminous type of skirt may compliment you if you are tall and willowy. A structured A-line may work best for someone smaller and curvier.
  •  Choose a flattering length. Again, this will boil down to your figure, height, and size. But a fail-safe length is at the knee or just below it. A petite girl might go a little shorter or just above the knee.

  •  Determine your vision. Are you going for a whimsical Disney-princess style look? Or are you blending the best of both worlds: ultra-girly with ultra-edgy? Knowing your vision for your look will help you decide what you want!

  •  Balance your skirt with a fitted top. A basic law for styling is that when wearing voluminous or material-centric pieces on the lower half of your body; you balance it out with a fitted (less material) piece on top. This keeps your overall appearance visually balanced and symmetrical. So do not wear a baggy shirt or blouse when wearing this style of bottoms, or you will overwhelm your figure.

  •  Cinch your skirt at the smallest part of your waist. Due to their nature, these gorgeous little numbers are best worn cinched at the waist, giving your figure (and clothes!) the full range of impressibility. And they end up looking the best with a tucked-in top.

  •  Be mindful of the occasion. If you contemplate wearing it to the office, you might do so only under particular conditions. Will you be presenting that day? Do you have a boardroom meeting? If yes, a tulle skirt may not be appropriate in these cases. Save your favorite clothing item for a holiday party or social affair. Or, if you are dead set on wearing it to the office, opt for one that is structured, less layered, and of an appropriate color and length.
  • And finally, choose the right shoes as they will bring the whole look together.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Can you wear a tulle skirt for a wedding?

Yes! But keep a few things in mind. One, wedding dress skirts are often made of tulle. So steer clear of a full-length (or maxi) skirt to avoid appearing too bridal.

Secondly, you will want to stay away from whites, creams, or ivory tones. Even blush may be too close to a bridal color, and no one wants to outshine the bride!

Q. What shoes go with a tulle skirt?

You may be surprised that you can make most shoes work. You might need to experiment with the length of the skirt in coordination with your footwear or even the type (an A-line versus a poufy one, midi versus maxi, etc.) but have fun with it.

You can wear boots, sandals, heels, and flats. You could even try a sneaker if going for a playful look. Some examples of shoes to avoid would be slippers and crocs.

Q. How to layer tulle skirts? What do I wear under it?

You should opt for sweaters, scarves, and various jackets, including denim, leather, and trench coats, as they are the best items to layer your outfit. Play around and experiment with what suits best with the vibe you are going for.

If you have the sheer kind of tulle, you can style it with stockings! You can go for jeans (as shown in look # 11) as well if you are daring and want to nail the street style. If all these do not call out to you, try searching for the lining/ slip of your skirt on Amazon or Target!
