The tulip skirt is rightfully considered one of the most feminine and elegant models among the wide variety of this type of outerwear. The skirt got its name from the obvious similarity of the cut and style to the shape of an inverted tulip head. It hugs the waist, smoothly flows around the hips without restricting movement, and gently tapers downwards. If at the dawn of its appearance and spread this style of skirt could be found exclusively in the classic version - a length just above the knees and the obligatory smell imitating flower petals superimposed on each other - now you can see a huge variety of tulip skirts.
Such variations of the skirt are achieved through the use of folds, elastic bands, both at the top of the waistband and at the bottom of the hem, flounces, pockets, bows, and multi-layered texture. The length of the tulip skirt also varies significantly. It can be mini, medium length, knee-length, or even extended to the shin.

Tulip skirt plus size
A tulip skirt is a magical wardrobe element. It suits almost everyone! It suits girls with curvy figures even more than classic skirt models. And all because the tulip skirt does not hide feminine forms, but, on the contrary, emphasizes them, hiding everything else.
By the way, when choosing a skirt of this model, do not try to hide your figure by wrapping yourself in a wide skirt right down to your heels. A tulip skirt for overweight ladies can be either mini or midi. The main thing is the graphic nature of the lines.
Which blouse to wear with a knee-length skirt? Clear petals of a skirt and a white blouse are the best option for this look.
A lot does not mean asexual. You can highlight the hidden beauty with the help of a predatory-colored skirt and a satin top with thin straps, or even without any straps. And don't forget about heels!
Heels are everything to us, especially if your height and weight do not allow you to wear the coveted fashionable skirt with ballet flats or sandals.
How to create the perfect look
To create a harmonious look with a tulip skirt, you can use the tips of stylists:
- Do not combine two things in an ensemble with prints; one item of clothing with a pattern is allowed - either the bottom or the top.
- The more spectacular the bottom, the simpler the top should be and vice versa. If the skirt has decorative details or folds, then the top should be discreet.
- It is better to tuck blouses, shirts, and tops inside. An office look can be complemented with a short jacket or cardigan, mid-thigh length. Long sweaters, jackets, cardigans do not go well with a skirt.
- The longer the skirt, the higher the heel should be. Short skirts can be combined with shoes without heels. Thick tights that match your shoes will help to visually lengthen your legs.
You can follow fashion recommendations, because it is thanks to informal decisions that new ideas are born in the fashion world. The main thing is to feel comfortable.
An elegant, feminine tulip skirt fits perfectly into the wardrobe of a modern woman. With it you can create original everyday and holiday looks, and the presented fashion review will help you make the right choice.
How to choose and wear a tulip skirt
When choosing a top, you should again adhere to the main rule. It should not cover your hips. If you are wearing outerwear, a cardigan or a coat, then you should not fasten the buttons, otherwise your silhouette will be shapeless.
If you are wearing a tulip skirt , you should definitely wear high-heeled shoes, be it sandals, shoes or boots. Ballet flats and sports shoes will look ridiculous.
If you want to visually lengthen your legs, choose tights and shoes of the same tone.
Designers invite ladies not to part with such a fashionable accessory as a belt or belt, and a tulip skirt is no exception. To avoid visually enlarging your waist, choose a thin belt or a belt in a solid or soft color.
If you want to look feminine and sophisticated, be sure to purchase a skirt model with the gentle name tulip.
What to wear with a fashionable tulip skirt
Tulip skirts for the 2014-2015 season demonstrate an enviable variety of fabrics from which they are made. In addition, all styles can also be divided into business and elegant, ideal for the office and formal formal events, stylish and ultra-fashionable, looking harmonious in a nightclub and at a party, glamorous and vintage, suitable for extraordinary events and creative activities. That is why the question of what to wear with such a skirt should be decided based on its purpose, fabric, length and general style of the woman. So, for example, a classic blouse, necessarily tucked into the waistband of the skirt, preferably made of light translucent material, will go well with a discreet business skirt with a wrap in dark blue and gray tones.

Stylish skirts, decorated with flounces, pockets, ruffles or in bright bold colors, can be worn either with a blouse of the same color or prefer a plain version. It is advisable to choose a blouse or fashionable top with a length up to the waist of the skirt or even a little higher. However, you should follow the rule: the more decorated and rich in details your skirt is, the simpler the top should be. It is worth remembering that such skirts look great in combination with high heels. Cropped models can also look good in shoes with solid soles, creating a youthful sporty look.

A tulip skirt and pockets - too much detail?
An interesting version of the “tulip” style is a skirt with protruding pockets on the sides, which further widen the hips. Such models are contraindicated for overweight girls, as well as for too thin ones - the skirt will look on the figure as something unnatural and frankly unnecessary. If you have a more or less balanced silhouette and slender legs, feel free to wear such styles - they always look stylish, bold and, oddly enough, elegant.
Another variation of this style for 2021 is a tulip skirt with secret pockets. Hiding slits in the voluminous folds of a skirt is as easy as shelling pears, and the pockets turn out to be quite functional. You can coquettishly place your hand in them while walking and standing, or use them for their intended purpose - the contents of the pockets will not be visible through the abundance of fabric.
The pockets do not create too much detail in the cut and perfectly balance the lines of the figure.
Who can wear a skirt like this?
First of all, girls with a pear body type. Girls with large hips will look great in a skirt of this style, but under one condition. Its hem should be as tight and narrow as possible.
But in general, this item of clothing is universal, suitable for ladies with any figure, although with some comments. A tulip skirt will fit well on girls who are not too thin, but not too plump, of average height. She will emphasize feminine forms and a good figure. For neat little inches, such a skirt will help add volume to the hips, and for ladies with a full body, it will help hide imperfections.
Rules and subtleties of choice
Tulip skirt – who does this model suit? It is so multifunctional that it will fit perfectly into any image, provided that the lady followed the rules for her selection.
There are three rules that every coquette who purchases this model should remember:
- The first of them says that this particular skirt will emphasize the hips and visually highlight the waist. And therefore, it should be chosen by those ladies who have a “Rectangle” body type, especially if you like a high-waisted tulip skirt. Ladies with a Pear body type should wear it with caution, choosing mainly models with a wrap or voluminous folds.
- The second rule determines that the length of this wardrobe item directly depends on the age of the lady. And therefore, only young ladies under 30 should wear a short tulip skirt.
- The third rule is: when choosing a skirt, you should not forget about style. And therefore, for example, for street style or an evening out, your preference should be given to a tulip skirt with pockets that are perfectly disguised in voluminous folds.
Based on these three rules, you can easily choose your model for the office dress code, and for casual, and for an evening out.
High waist tulip skirt
The high-waisted tulip skirt has become a hit of the season. It not only stands out from the numerous models on the hips, but also makes a woman sexier and slimmer. Such a skirt not only visually makes the waist narrower and more feminine, but also emphasizes the chest. In the 2014-2015 clothing collections, it can be noted that high waists are found in both classic knee-length skirts and mini versions. At the same time, a high waist is necessarily emphasized either by a contrasting color fabric, or by a spectacular bow, belt, or tie. Of course, such a model will look perfect on a slender woman of average height. However, on moderately plump women, with the right selection of a blouse or top, as well as the use of high-heeled or wedge shoes, a high-waisted tulip skirt can look very appetizing and sexy.

This style appeared at the dawn of the 60s of the last century, it is a representative of the new look trend and is a transformation from a long fluffy skirt, the hem of which was folded in half and hemmed inside. And if at the very beginning of its appearance, a tulip skirt could only be found in a classic version - knee-length or higher and with the obligatory smell imitating tulip petals, today there is a wide variety of models of this style.
So, unlike the designers’ original idea, modern tulip skirts can be not only short, but also medium-length and very long. Particularly interesting is the tulip-shaped skirt with a train, long at the back and short at the front.
Also, unlike the first models, which had an ordinary belt, today you can find tulip skirts with a high and low waist.
In addition, a modern tulip skirt no longer necessarily has a wrap in the front; volume in the hip area is ensured by multi-layering, various kinds of draperies, folds, pockets and other additional details.
Tulip skirts are made mainly from soft fabrics that softly fit the figure and drape easily. As a rule, a tulip skirt is clothing for the spring-summer season, and therefore the color scheme and colors of the skirt should correspond to these seasons.

What to wear with a tulip skirt in 2021 - several stylish looks in the photo
What you can wear with a tulip skirt in everyday life in 2021 - advice from stylists will tell you and show you several stylish looks in the photos located further on this page. For an office outfit, a light, plain blouse-shirt with both short and long sleeves is suitable, while for a romantic date you can wear a blouse with an ornament and decorative details - ruffles, frills. In any situation, when wearing a tulip skirt, try not to overdo it with textured elements at the top of the look. The more folds, the more modest the top should be.
A tight T-shirt is perfect for a strict model - this is an option for young girls. Bright color combinations and themed prints are allowed here. But it is better to avoid abstraction, asymmetry and large patterns - they will negate the entire effect of a pleated skirt. For a party or a special occasion, bold fashionistas can wear a tulip skirt with a corset or a strapless top. This outfit looks unusually harmonious, but only on a good figure.
In cool weather, wear turtlenecks, fitted sweaters and pullovers, cropped jackets, and mid-length cardigans that should be unbuttoned with a tulip skirt. Of course, you need to wear a tight top or blouse underneath, tucking it into the top of the model.
What to wear with a tulip skirt in terms of shoes in 2021? Of course, with heels! Let it be pumps, sandals or ankle boots. For those who love comfort, we suggest replacing the heel with a high wedge. Those with long legs can afford to wear a tulip skirt with flat shoes, but note – not with moccasins and loafers, but with open sandals or elegant ballet flats.
For those who have not yet figured out what to wear with a tulip skirt, the photo selection will be the best guide in finding the right look. Rest assured – it looks gorgeous on any figure, the main thing is not to break simple rules, don’t be shy and feel free to experiment!
Tulip skirt for obese women
As already mentioned, a well-chosen tulip skirt in combination with a beautiful tight-fitting or light translucent top will look beautiful on a full figure. Soft, flowing, gently enveloping fabric will hide excesses in the figure and emphasize feminine soft shapes. Particular attention should be paid to high-waisted models. The belt of such a skirt will visually make your waist thinner and emphasize your bust. A more suitable length option would be a midi model - that is, just below the knee.

Long tulip skirt
A classic knee-length tulip skirt requires perfect shins and calves. If they are far from perfect, designers recommend paying attention to midi or even maxi skirts. Yes, fashionable “buds” are becoming longer in the new season.
A floor-length tulip skirt requires elegant shoes - be it classic stiletto pumps, wicker sandals or ankle boots. In winter and autumn these can be high heeled boots. Over the knee boots and winter shoes with flat soles are a categorical taboo with such a skirt length!
Another important rule is the swing rule. If on the one hand there is a lot, then on the other there should be little. That is, the more complex the cut of the tulip skirt, the more laconic the top should be. This directly applies to long styles. Folds, draperies, and additional “petals” of the skirt are balanced by a modest top without complex decor.
Description of style
The skirt is so named because of its resemblance to an inverted tulip bud. It hugs the waist tightly, flows along the hips, creating volume, and tapers downwards . The effect of half-open petals is achieved through scent, light folds or drapery. The belt and hem of the skirt can be laconic or decorated with various frills, bows, flounces, and pockets.
Length varies from mini to midi. A tulip skirt with a train looks interesting, which from the back resembles a floor-length skirt, and is very shortened in front. Dresses with tulip skirts are very popular, including wedding and evening ones.
Tulip skirt 2021
This year, fashion designers have decisively moved away from traditional design. The standard double-sided cut is often replaced with artificial pleats that convey the effect of petals. Experiments can also be seen in the length of the products. Both sexy minis and elegant maxis are in fashion now. If initially feminine clothes were predominantly made from dense fabrics that could withstand their shape, then in the 2021 collections we can see flying, transparent, and flowing materials. And the most fashionable models have become:
- Asymmetry
. More than ever, any uneven cut lines are considered a relevant solution. Products that are short in the front and long in the back have gained particular popularity. - Puffball
. This style has not gone out of fashion for more than twenty years in a row. Its main difference is its spherical silhouette, narrow at the waist and hem. - Classic
. Moderate length and original design ideas remain in fashion. Classic - fashionable tulip skirt 2021 for an adult woman. - With a bow
. The most popular decoration for women's clothing has become a large bow, complementing the product on the lower back, covering the clasp or acting as a transition in the wrap area.
Tulip skirt with pockets
One of the most common and favorite options for a tulip skirt is a skirt with pockets. At the same time, pockets can be either internal or overhead, blending with the fabric or, conversely, attracting attention with a spectacular decor. A skirt with pockets can create both a business style, perfect for a woman in the office or at work, as well as a stylish, light casual look. When choosing a style, you should pay attention to the fact that some tulip skirts with pockets can visually deform your figure somewhat.

What and how to wear a tulip skirt in 2021?
This is how bright summer models and models of subdued colors for autumn are cut. Such skirts are rarely decorated with prints; more often they are plain or with a regular pattern (check, polka dots, “chicken foot”) or a pattern over the entire surface of the fabric. Fashion designers in 2021 use them in Art Nouveau collections. With a tulip skirt, they wear, first of all, tight-fitting clothes, thin jumpers, tops, and short jackets. It is fashionable to wear it with a bandeau top or corsage. A fitted jacket looks especially beautiful with it.
Classic blouses work well. You can wear it with wide shoulders and puffy sleeves, this allows you to create a balanced silhouette. The waist is emphasized with a belt (especially if it is high). Shoes that are more elegant and with heels are more suitable; open-toe and classic shoes, sandals with thin straps, ankle boots.
Fashionable models of sandals with ties at the ankles or summer boots are especially suitable for a tulip skirt. And in winter and autumn - high boots and over the knee boots. This skirt is primarily intended for girls who want to show off beautiful, long legs and a thin waist (if you are not too happy with the upper part of your legs, it is better to choose a length just above the knee). But this model perfectly hides all problems in the hip area (excess or insufficient volume).
Fabric selection
When choosing fabric for a skirt, you need to consider the following nuances:
- purpose of the product;
- desired shade;
- the time of year when you plan to wear a tulip skirt;
- features of the figure.
In addition, the fabric you choose should be of such quality that it does not shrink during the first wash. Tulip skirt models that are sewn from flowing, well-draped material that can form beautiful folds will look ideal. The following fabrics have all of the above properties:
- velvet;
- satin;
- viscose;
- jacquard;
- silk;
- cotton.
In this case, it is desirable that the material has a small amount of synthetic fibers in its composition. The following technique will help you get rid of any doubts when choosing: you should squeeze the fabric you like in your hand and watch when it straightens out. If it smooths out immediately or remains compressed for a long time, then it means that it is not suitable for sewing this model. Ideally, the material should return to shape after five minutes.
Silk, cotton, satin, jacquard, wool, and suit fabrics are suitable for making an office tulip skirt. The material should hold its shape well, not be transparent, and not fit the body too tightly. Summer products can be sewn from silk, satin, viscose, chiffon, and cotton fabrics. A thing intended for hot weather should allow air and moisture to pass through well and not be tight to the body.
If you have little experience in sewing products, then it is better to avoid complex patterns that require matching on the material.

Tulip skirt: patterns
As a rule, a classic tulip skirt is cut based on a straight skirt pattern. To do this, firstly, cut the pattern into several strips, not reaching the bottom line 1 mm; secondly, they push the upper part of the pattern apart to form folds. The amount of expansion depends on the desired depth of the folds, or the splendor of the assembly.
Pattern of a tulip skirt with a belt
To get a tulip skirt with a yoke, when modeling the latter, the yoke line must be drawn through the top of the dart or darts. Thus, we draw the line of the future coquette. Let's cut the pattern along it and close the darts. We do the same with the lower part of the skirt as in the first case.

What is the difference from other models?
The classic tulip skirt has a length above the knee and voluminous pleats at the waist. There are options with and without a wrap, voluminous pockets, asymmetrical design lines and draperies, but in any design the silhouette will resemble the bud of an unopened tulip. This type of skirt has become a source of inspiration for many fashion designers; the most popular models are options with a high or low waistline made from jacquard fabrics.
Patterns
The pattern on the material is also important for a tulip skirt. It sets the tone for the entire product.
Dotted
It is better not to wear polka dot products for those with voluminous legs, as a dark background and light pattern will visually enlarge the hips.
Striped
Fashionable “buds” with a striped print will hide body imperfections. They look great on curvy ladies. The main thing is that the stripes are positioned vertically.
Floral print
The floral pattern on the tulip skirt looks trendy in the warm season. In winter, such a print is inappropriate.
For plus size ladies
The tulip is perfect for plus size girls, if you follow a few simple rules when choosing.
- Minimum length to knee.
This option effectively hides extra inches in the hip area, revealing slimmer knees and ankles.
- The presence of draperies and soft folds in the abdominal area.
It is better to concentrate the maximum bends of the product not on the protruding part of the hips, but to place them in the area of a slightly full tummy. For ladies with chic shapes, a tulip bud will suit a minimally opened one, without pockets or flashy decorations.
- Medium or high heel.
Experiments on combining feminine skirts with sneakers are best left to ladies of delicate shapes. A high heel will visually tighten the figure in the buttocks area, improve posture and the overall impression of the image.
