Pencil Skirt
A pencil skirt, also known as a straight skirt, is a tailored skirt hanging straight from the hips and is fitted from the waist to the hips. It may also have a kick-pleat in the back or in the front for ease of walking. French fashion designer Christian Dior first introduced the classic modern pencil skirt in the late 1940s using the term ‘H-Line‘ to describe its shape.
