lorriette Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Ladies, what footwear do you consider best worn with skirts & dresses that have uneven hemlines? totter along into history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubberheel Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Hm...I don't think my choice of shoes depends on the "even/unevenness" of the hemline. For me the overall lenght and width of the skirt is far more important. I must admit that I mostly wear pencil skirts somewhere below the knee. I also must admit that I wear high heeled pumps no matter the lenght of the skirt. Maybe I tend to wear heavier and slightly lower heels if the skirt has width, but I have recently bought a long, wide and flowing skirt that looks great with stilettos. Could you perhaps tell a little more about the skirt/dress in question? The look, the style etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorriette Posted November 6, 2005 Author Share Posted November 6, 2005 the sort of thing i had in mind comes just below the knee, has a handkerchief style hem, and, is a soft, fluid type fabric. since wearing it out would be pushing the boundary, i was intrested in the opinion so as not to look outrageous. totter along into history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shrimper Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 I'd say anything with a heel, even boots. Experiment until you get the look you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlondeBimbo Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 As rubberheel says it's the overall image thing. I have seen a number of styles like this (I know the second is a dress - but to me it presents more of an overall image to demonstrate) For this I would expect strappy type shoes eg or if it's a mini-kilt like but with an uneven hem - then thick stockings & boots (outside) if it's a bit like a 50's skirt with an uneven hem (AKA like a witches skirt) then plain court shoes would be my choice!

lorriette Posted November 8, 2005 Author Share Posted November 8, 2005 thanks for the comments, duly noted. I think the sandals and dress would go very nicely together. I just don't wish to look out of place if I go for that look. totter along into history Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
