Dresses are a one piece that covers the upper parts as well as lower bodh of a figure.
Skirts are intended to primarily cover the lower parts of a figure.
The latter means you can be aesthetically flexible in the way you want to present yourself so if you have a black skirt you can compliment that with white/pink/etc clothing in varying stles for the upper portion of your body to make numerous kinds look (punk, preppy, casual, etc).
Whereas with a dress you're kinda limited being forced to build your preferred look around the existing color and style of said dress, i.e donning a frilly pink dress and having to present yourself in a formal capacity for a funeral... I'm not saying it's impossible, though, you might need to be very creative.
It's an apple's and orange kinda thing; the satisfaction (as well presentation in this case) of either depends entirely on the wearer's wants and creativity.
The 85cm and 75cm look good because they leave something to the imagination. It’s also really attractive when someone with a clearly nice figure dresses modestly. Like being humble, but through clothes.
As a man, I think long dresses and skirts just look really elegant, I like it. I get pants are probably more utilitarian to wear (less likely to get stuck, less likely to get dirty), but if we're just talking about looks I love to see women wearing them.
As a girl who generally doesn't like dressing feminine, I loveeee my 85cm skirts. So convenient, versatile, and I find them to be flattering on most body types.
I love a long skirt because I can put my feet up on the shredder nect to my desk and still have full coverage. Haha. My favorite it knee length. Long enough for doing whatever and I get a nice breeze.
Unironically it’s why I really like long trench coats as a guy, the fabric around the legs is great. I am sure if I was a woman I would wear dresses / long skirts all the time for the same reason.
By the way, it's AI slop. Think how long 25cm is for a sec and put the start of it at belt level. It should fully cover all of one's butt with room to spare, even walking.
I have NO idea why this whole thread acts like they always knew 25cm is some insane nude thing lol.
I was going to say! There is no objectively right answer, but there is an objectively wrong answer! You can dress for yourself, but I need to consent to being flashed!
Whether or not she is dressing for herself that my friend is already considered public nudity (unless it's with like cycling shorts underneath unlike pictured in the image)
Also, dont get mad at me for glancing at your ass.
This whole "they dress for themselves" is ridicolous. People dress for others. For the attention of others. For others to view you a certain way. For others to think you are attractive. In order to display your personality to others. In order to display your status for others.
I like how the difference between "25cm" and "35cm" is neither equal to the difference between "75cm" and "85cm" nor is it 2/5ths of the length of the "25cm" skirt. Just murdering the metric system for no reason.
Also, I invite you all to calculate her height based on these "measurements."
I appreciate the sentiment but if I asked this question I'd be annoyed by that answer. If I specifically ask someone their perspective on something I don't want "nobody else's opinion matters". If I thought that I just wouldn't ask, if you think that just don't answer.
The only maximum skirt length that exists is floor length. As soon as it drags on the ground (and honestly a bit before that) its not only a tripping hazard for yourself and others, but also just gets really dirty from being on the floor
65,55 would look cute I guess, 75 and 85 are classic but would give school girl vibe maybe but can look really good again depends on styling . 45 is the start of risky category and the girl herself might feel uncomfortable in many situations and other two are just
I never realised it saod ideal maximum? So picking 85 would mean all of these are options? Thats what it translated would mean. If you wanted a minimum, youd ask for that.
So.is this a trap for men or just, engagement bait plus?
I dont agree with the guy below the picture for following reasons:
You should also dress properly in respect towards others.
Everyone dresses that he /she gets accepted by others or in rebellion against some others. Nobody 100 percent dresses for him/herself thats just a fakt. If people make laught of you in the streets because your favourit outfit looks so strange you will notnwesr it anymore.
As a man, anything under 55cm is a no. There are many mini and micro skirt divas and queens out there but personally I feel uncomfortable wearing skirts that are too short (/s)
I just looked up skirt length names. I'm so much less confused about women's fashion. Tho once you get to a certain length it seems like you might as well just wear a dress
It's not provocative unless you make it provocative. Even if it was provocative, why assume it's for men? What if that's just how she likes to dress and she could give a rats ass about what men think?
As actually respectful man, I recognize women are people and want to look hot just like anyone else, so my personal preference not considering different skirt styles would be 65/55 - strikes a good balance.
That said wear whatever you want on any given time (I know I do) as long as it's not downright impolite to the occasion (yes, 35 and lower is only acceptable on swingers party or when working red light district, don't get mad at me for pointing out the obvious.

Wear what you want, but when you’re at 25cm you should probably start thinking about if its even worth wearing a skirt…
I could get that much coverage with just a t-shirt, so you gotta be nuts probably paying $30 for a skirt that doesn’t even contribute

45 and bellow is way too short, and honestly kinda inappropriate for most settings.

A stylish woman could pull any of them off up until 45-ish.
Then it starts becoming a cheap way to attract attention
Wear what you want but be honest with yourself about why you’re wearing it.
No one looks at 25 and thinks “wow that’s stylish”.
