Women's Long Skirts

Over the distance from waist to ankle, cut decides almost everything a long skirt does. Column and straight shapes fall in a single line and read tallest; A-line and full skirts widen as they descend; tiered and gathered styles break the drop into stages so the hem moves independently of the hip. Bias-cut skirts sit apart from all of them, spiralling around the body and skimming the hip rather than falling straight from the waist.

Fabric weight then decides how that shape moves. Jersey, silk and crepe pool and swing; denim and cotton poplin keep their own shape; pleated georgette and chiffon carry the most movement. Wool, tweed and quilted constructions bring real weight, and a lining changes how any of them sits against the leg. Slits, wrap fronts and button-through openings return some of the stride a floor-length hem takes away, and a high waist sets where the long line begins.

Frequently asked questions

All FAQ's

Women's Long Skirts

How long is a maxi skirt in inches?

Maxi describes where the hem sits — at or near the ankle — rather than a fixed measurement. On someone around 5'6" that usually works out to a 36 to 40 inch (91-102 cm) length taken from the top of the waistband to the hem. A taller wearer needs closer to 42 inches for the same effect, and a shorter one nearer 34. Because brands cut to different model heights, always check the stated length rather than the size.

Can a long skirt be shortened?

It depends on the cut. Straight and A-line skirts hem easily, with the length taken off the bottom and the edge re-pressed. A circle skirt is harder because the hem is on varying grain and will hang unevenly, and a bias-cut skirt must be left hanging for a day or two before it is cut or the hem drops afterward. Pleated skirts are normally shortened from the waistband instead, since the pleats are set from the top.

Are DIHSAN's long skirts authentic?

Yes. Every piece DIHSAN sells is the brand's own — genuine designer product, with the maker's hardware, stamping and markings intact. Nothing is a reproduction or a licensed imitation.

Will I be charged duties on a DIHSAN long skirt order?

No. Duties are included on every DIHSAN order, and US orders include taxes as well.

Can I return a long skirt purchase at DIHSAN?

Yes. Eligible long skirts can go back within 14 days of the ship date, for store credit rather than cash, and shipping charges are non-refundable. Items discounted 70% or more — plus swimwear, intimates, and limited-release styles at any discount — are final sale.
