I removed the following

These include the following. The list of styles below is mostly for long (mid-calf to floor) denim skirts, as fewer options exist for shorter skirts: Styles

  • Asymmetrical
  • Cargo
  • Ripped or destroyed (still more popular with jeans than with denim skirts)
  • Frayed or unraveling seams (quite popular, and largely unknown with other sorts of fabric)
  • Hobble
  • Lacing on side(s)
  • Maternity
  • Mermaid/Bell-shaped
  • Skirts made from jeans
  • Slits or splits: back and front; back; front; side
  • Wraparound
Stitching styles
  • Pleated (not common in long denim skirts)
  • Tiered
  • Chevron panels
  • Diagonal panels
  • Diamond panels
  • Godets
  • Horizontal panels
  • Triangular and horizontal panels
  • Triangular panels
  • Tulip/twister
  • Vertical panels
  • Vertical and horizontal panels
  • Yoke
  • Panel combinations of several of the above
Cloth patches alternating with denim
  • Diagonal cloth patches
  • Patches on side
  • Triangular cloth patches
  • Vertical cloth patches
Waist styles and closures
  • Fitted waist and back or side zipper, sometimes paired with a button or other closure
  • A-line and zipper, sometimes paired with a hook-and-eye closure
  • Elastic waist
  • Fitted or elastic waist with front buttons the full length
  • Fitted or elastic waist with side buttons the full length
  • Fitted with front clips
Trims and hems
  • Cloth trim
  • Flounced or ruffled (once or several times)
  • Frayed, unraveling, or rough hem
  • Fringes
  • Handkerchief hem
  • Hem folded up
  • Holes at hem
  • Lace trim
  • Leather fringe trim
  • Scalloped hem
Decorations
  • Embroidery
  • Print
  • Rhinestone
  • Writing (as with jeans pants, the toughness and durability of the denim fabric makes it possible to decorate with writing, and even with painting)

as it is an overly long piece of OR which is not specific to denim skirts (any denim garmant can have rhinestones, any skirt can have a scalloped hem, etc) - but am putting the list on the talk page for any who look for it. Sherurcij (Speaker for the Dead) 02:31, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
