International Skirt Day
Celebrated on 30 NovemberNovember 30 is the International Day of the Skirt, which is the oldest clothing - it was worn by primitive people.
They simply wrapped themselves in the treated skin of a killed animal to keep them warm. By the way, men were the first to wear a skirt, only then did the fairer sex start wearing it. The length of this item of clothing was used to judge a person's wealth - rich people wore longer skirts than poorer men.
Today, this item of clothing is in the wardrobe of most women, and in Scotland it is also traditional for men. Although the Scots claim that a kilt has nothing in common with a skirt.
In Russian villages, this traditional women's clothing appeared relatively recently - around the middle of the 19th century. At first it looked like a sundress common in the village, which was made of lightweight fabric and was worn instead of an undershirt.
At the beginning of the 20th century, lightweight skirts came into fashion. But due to the popularity of plump and rosy-cheeked girls in Russian villages, it was customary to wear several skirts at once to create the desired volume. Linen was used for sewing everyday clothes, and scarlet chintz was used for festive clothes.
We offer several celebration ideas:
1. Wear a short miniskirt and please your beloved man. You can perform a fiery dance or have a romantic dinner. The length is chosen independently, but most men love short skirts.
2. Get together with a group of women, where the dress code will be a skirt. The length and style are not limited by the rules; then you can choose the best item of clothing. It is recommended to use secret voting - on pieces of paper each guest will write the name of the owner of the best outfit. You can throw pieces of paper into a beautiful jar, and then count the results together. You can invite men to visit so that they can also participate in the voting.
3. Organize a carnival dedicated to the holiday. Most likely, most people have never heard of such a celebration, so the reason to gather will be unusual. You can agree and wear clothes of the same colors and styles, or create a rainbow by wearing a variety of things.
Regardless of the celebration option, the most important thing is to be in a good mood and not pay attention to minor troubles. You can tell each other interesting life stories related to skirts.
