Walking in tight pencil skirts & heels
Does anyone else have problems manouvering in very tight pencil skirts & heels
![]() Not just walking, but stairs, getting on the bus/out of a car, the list goes on, even a high kerb can cause an issue lol. I did switch from "fitted" skirts to "clingy" & "stretchy" skirts & even though it's deffinately easier, they keep splitting or popping at the seams ![]() I can't win

Hmm it can be tricky, but I've never had a burst or split seam
Any chance you might need a bigger size with a touch more room for manoevre?

All mine have stretch in them & most have a slit or pleats at the back.
You can get away without a slit if they're shorter. As with Hannah - never had a problem with splitting or popping seams though - perhaps you need the size up? |

Well they are my size & they are supposed to be pretty tight anyway. Just wondered if anyone else had the same issues as me x.

I don't recall ever splitting a seam, but I agree some sets of stairs can be a bit of a problem.

I split my pencil skirt up the back seam last year when I forgot I was wearing something which tied my knees together (a design fault if ever there was one!) and climbed over a coffee table at work....
I've been too scared to wear it again despite sewing it up! |

Exactly. I get really fed up with serial trolls on the forums.

I had a grey pencil skirt that I used to wear for school
![]() One day I came home and had an argument with my sister. I decided (in my wisdom) to karate kick her as she walked through the door. I waited and when she finally came in I ran at her, kicked, my other leg followed suit, I flew up in the air and landed flat on my back. Moral of story, never pull kung foo moves in a pencil skirt. |
