What Women Wear to Court

Bottoms

Again, men have less to worry about. It’s pants every day. For women, skirts get added to the wardrobe lineup. Here are some female specific comments on what is worn on one’s lower half. Regarding sizing: muffin tops are created because you are wearing the wrong size bottom, not because of your body type. Buy the size that fits right. No one likes muffin tops—especially in court. Regarding length: get the appropriate hem. You don’t want to be the butt of high water jokes if your pants are too short or trip over the bottoms if they’re dragging on the ground because they’re too long. Regarding fit: if your regular walking stride is shortened because of your skirt, you should probably considering selecting something less fitted.  I know I’ve never been looking at man’s suit pants and thought, “Hmm . . . he’s really squeezing into those.”Next: Dresses
