Would You Wear a High-Waisted Skirt Like America?

Lawrence Lucier/FilmMagic

With her curvy shape, America Ferrera really works this 40’s inspired glam look. But she’s not the only one star who’s loving high-waisted pencil skirts — we’ve spotted everyone from Victoria Beckham to Kate Walsh donning it. Unlike high-waisted jeans (which are tough on many body shapes), these sexy numbers are universally flattering and actually slim down your silhouette. Just remember to wear it with stilettos, wedges or high heeled boots. The longer your leg appears, the better. Tell us: Is this a trend you would try?

I’d definitely wear that skirt! It’s fantastic. I love America; she always looks so classy and beautiful.

laci October 12th, 2007

i wouldn’t, but she looks fine in it. i think it make her hips look a big. but she does have curves so she looks pretty good.

Lori October 12th, 2007

Stunning!! America is a true beauty with a GORGEOUS figure. I love how she works her curves!

mc October 12th, 2007

Heck yeah I’d wear it! It’s like you reverse version of the empire waist dresses, only these actually look phenominal on everybody. A great pair of heels only makes you look better with this one as well!

40 Forever October 12th, 2007

It looks great on America, but no, it’s not a look that I’m ready to try. Until it becomes more popular, it looks a little costume-y.

Sarah Lee October 12th, 2007

I think it’s adorable! Very classy!

Elle October 12th, 2007

The fit is really unflattering across her midsection. But I like the idea, especially with peep-toe pumsps.

Teresa October 12th, 2007

Absolutely! Love it.
