EXPERIMENT WITH: MID-CALF HEMLINES
In synch with the temperature, hemlines this season have dropped. Hems have found a new stopping point halfway between the knees and floor, and the effect is extreme ladylike elegance.
Camilla Belle, Carey Mulligan, and Kirsten Dunst all played with proportion choosing graceful skirts and dresses in this of-the-moment length. As Marc Jacobs, Louis Vuitton, Calvin Klein, and the Fendi fall collections showed, the mid-calf cut has a vintage vibe with an undeniable feminine force. We recommend trying belts with your skirts to emphasize the waist, and form-fitting tops in delicate finishes to add an element of subtle sexiness. Shop some mid-calf-length options in the thumbnails below and experiment with your hemlines this season!
