The oldest style of garment known to mankind was skirt made of animals skin , banana leaves  woven together was wrapped around the waist and chest , then the essential skirt was  created . Afterwards  fabric took place and become a grace for human form .
For hundred years ago long skirt was the symbol of luxury and the material for the skirt was expensive. Women who wear long skirts show their modesty and prestige. As u can say the skirt design is all about your own personal style and comfortableness .
Men and women wore skirts from many cultures , like in India men wear skirt called " Lungi " and for women was " Ghaghra " ,  and the ancient art also  shows men in skirts . But as time  passed, only women known for wearing skirts. And if you look at the ancient paintings of Egypt and clothing history you see men and women both wear skirt using the material of cotton fabric for women’s and Steel for men’s.
Skirt is a garment which was very famous in the 1800 century. It is known as the second oldest garment Known to Mankind.
Other than this skirts were the sign of beauty and status. Skirts were not always as feminine as they are today. European women wore nothing but dresses and skirts, so it became slang for "woman" in the English language.
