What is a "full skirt"?

A full skirt is a type of skirt that is made with a significant amount of fabric that creates a voluminous, flowing look. It is typically characterized by its fullness and lack of structure or stiffness, and often features pleats, gathers, or a circular cut to achieve its fullness. Full skirts are versatile and can be worn for a variety of occasions, from casual outings to formal events. They are available in a range of lengths, from mini to maxi, and can be made from a variety of fabrics, such as cotton, silk, and tulle. The style has been popular throughout history, from the voluminous crinoline skirts of the 1800s to the more relaxed, bohemian styles of the 1960s and beyond.
