A slit skirt walks a very interesting line between covered up and revealing, which is exactly why it works. The length says one thing. The slit says another. The result is more interesting than either choice alone. We love a slit at the front of a midi, a slit at the back, a high slit at the side of a maxi. All different effects, all compelling. These are the slit skirts where the placement and depth of the slit is genuinely considered. Not just a practical seam. An actual design decision.
