If you've not heard about the shirttail hem yet, it's a skirt with a longer "tail" at the back (or cut shorter on the sides) and it's rocking the fashion world.
Fashion designer Dennis Basso (who unveiled the shirttail in his Spring/Summer 2011 collection at New York Fashion Week) and the ETRO Spring/Summer 2011 collection (that debuted at Milano Fashion Week) show that the shirttail is up-and-coming. What's more, the nature of the shirttail hem makes any outfit sensationally playful. From simple angled hems to intricately patterned petal hems, the tail effect is truly a fascinating way to freshen up your spring 2011 wardrobe.
