Women do tend to have a good bit of difference between waist size and hip size, more so than men, so it's the fact that hips are bigger, which keeps a skirt up; if it's a non stretch waist.
It's something I struggle with, as a trans woman; more especially as I'm carrying too much weight just above my hips, at the moment. I actually have big hips, i'm just too fat, so I have to go for skirts with an, elasticated waist.
I hope you have a good experience, if and when you go out in public, dressed as a woman. It helped my mood no end; but I'm a trans woman, and I had to do it, to get the life I need so badly. I know it's just for fun with you, but if you ever want any tips on going out in public, just ask.
Thank you so much for your input Alicia![](upload://ez5kOkpKXRZOxjavAURYmQxVTau.gif), at the moment the skirts i'm playing with do have a elasticated band, my problem at the moment is my weight I have lost so much due to problems in my relationship, I want to gain my weight so I don't want to get anything thats a too tight fit, I think maybe elastic maybe the way to go for now even though I really like this one:

It is true for me i'm just getting into skirts just for the fun side plus it's something different to try, mainly looking for shorter skirts so I can have fun flashing the bum![](upload://kym5tZ5EfyJxs6TKHB1Q2HtGSpK.gif) and making upskirt shots!!!
Thanks Alicia I will be sure to ask you for tips if I do go out, I wouldn't find it to much of a embarrassment if it was out of my area, because I would be treating it more of a fun dressing up night than wanting to make myself look like a woman, but I have a feeling I wouldn't mind trying to go the whole way one time by buying a wig.![](upload://ez5kOkpKXRZOxjavAURYmQxVTau.gif)

Hey teacake
It really is a matter of personal preference, and the style of the skirt itself.
High-waisted skirts are usually designed to be worn on your belly button (or a little higher).
Regular waisted is usually for wearing in-line with your hip bones.
Low-rise, just above the pubic bone / just covering your butt crack :)
But really it's whateve YOU like the look and feel of. And you can wear your clothes slightly differently, depending on the finshed look you're aiming for on a particular day.
Thanks Jess![](upload://ez5kOkpKXRZOxjavAURYmQxVTau.gif) I'm still trying to get the hang of mixing and matching things because I don't want to look too girly as thats not the look im trying to go for, so getting the right top to match the skirt is important for me, I have a nice amount of bodystockings that I think will go well with a short skirt.
Thanks for adding what types of skirts sit where on your body that helps. But you nailed it when you say it's what ever YOU like, I think so many people get hung up on what everyone should look like instead of going with what you want.
I guess I have always beena bit different I use to wear knee high boots bit like what goths wear when my mates looked all trendy with trainers, then i would frequently change my hair colour, My mates never got it.
