Hi there, we are interested in specific types of skirts (or dresses), namely those that go up at the front and down at the back (especially if there's a significant difference i.e. shorter at the front and longer at the back so the back going down is obvious) and was wondering if any of y'all knew their name or where to get them.

We would especially love it if they could have multiple layers but a single layer would be okay if that's not possible.

Oh and a request, if possible, since we don't use amazon since they do not treat their workers well we would prefer no links to them, thank you!

Extra bonus points if any of them have pockets, but that's a big ask, we know.

Hmmm, Is the type of skirt you're looking for in this graphic?

Kind of sounds like a bustle of sarong.

Bustle or wrap around looks close to what we were imagining, we think. Thanks!

Got it! When I have more time today I'll dig through my sites and links, but off the top of my head, I know Vina of the Valley has a few preorders open for skirts that have these elements. They are expensive, but I just love their designs and quality!

[Sincere] Thanks a lot! This has been very helpful!

I looked through the sites I shop from, and the ones which seem to have the most varied styles are revolve.com and princesspoly.com. The asymmetrical styles seem to come and go. I also like looking through Nordstrom Rack's site/app; there's usually a few items there which catch my eye!

Also, I've seen a lot of the girls I follow on IG convert skirts/dresses into asymmetrical ones! They usually just clip or pin them a certain way and it ends up looking great. That might be worth looking into as it'll really expand your options!

Thanks! Though looks like it's princesspoly.co.uk, not .com. Ooo, I'll have a look thanks.

Ooo, that's an excellent idea! Thanks again!

After some research we have found that there are some that are called high-low, high-lo or asymmetrical skirts too which also fit what we'd like too.

Thank you for this. I looked up high low skirts and they are so much fun. I'll be buying a few real soon.
