Skirts zip

Post by Needra »

Ok, so for the umpteenth time-- How do you tell if a skirt zips up at the back or the side and if it is a side zipping skirt, is it the left side or the right side that women use? I feel like anewbe but remember I had purged for 5 years and it has only been the last 3 years I got back into it -I'm sure its the seams-you no -the way they run (theres that f@%king word again) the cut or ? ka nee (not that it matters I can't get into any of my things after the holidays :oops: )
If you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much room.

Hi Needra,

I've only restarted dressing 2 1/2 years after 33 years off, but since you are asking, I will try my best to provide some advice from my experience.

The main cue for me is the seams, so that there are not seams at the front.

Most of my zippered skirts have them in the back, but one that I borrow from my wife (with her permission) has a side zipper, but it's obvious due to the pockets and seams. There are also some skirts that have a front zipper.

If you are in doubt, try your best guess and look at the results in the mirror, or if you have a digital camera with a self timer, you can use it to see how your rear view looks.

I hope this helps point you in the right direction.

Also, the tag usually goes to the back as dose the slit (if it has one) in the hem.

I am also going to assume that if it is a side zip the zip will be on the right because we are mostly right handed.

Side zip skirts

Post by Cindy Michelle »

Hi Girls,

Most of the side zip slacks I have are zipped on the left side. My only side zip skirt also zips on the left side. So-o-o-o, my guess is that most side zips for skirts is also on the left.

Hugs

My experience (and skirts) show that if there is a makers/size/care tag that it will go in the back. Skirts that I own (or have seen) zip on the left or the back. I'm sure there are some that close in the front, most likely made of denim, or I've seen some that button in the front. I have not noticed any that close on the right.

Take a look at the skirts available on any retail site.

I reckon I was mistaken in my assumption. My one skirt with a side zip is also on the left, tried it this morning.

Its a TRANNIE THING that we all know this.
Yes the little tag would go to the back that helps a lot.
Seams each side or back of the skirt with zip at the back unless a side zipper which would then have the little tag at the back.
See its a TRANNIE THING we know that.
Well done girls =D>

I'm so proud of you girlies. *-*
