I am always learning about the constant changes in fashion. It's one of the reasons I love being a woman.
I found this chart that explained the lengths of skirts and their labels.
The industry "norm" is a size 10 with a height of 5'5" to 5'6". I am a size 10, but I am 5 inches taller than the norm. So I add 5 inches to the average length of the 10 skirt lengths listed below.
Learning these terms and applying them to me, helps my understanding of woman's fashion.
