By show of legs, how many celebrities do you think have showed-off their beautiful toned tanned lower limbs on the red carpet? We dare say, quite a few! Maybe it’s to make use of the months of hardcore personal training or to to make a bold fashion statement, we don’t know for sure. All we know is by their common effort to give their legs the spotlight via a thigh-high slit, viola, we get a hot new trend.

Why, the trend is also on the runway and street, of course.

Thigh’s the limit. But our daring stylistas’ restraint got to zero when they opted to ”make it double”. Yep, not one, but double slits made it to a lot of designs. Style watchers like us here at MissesDressy.com couldn’t help but gawk, we mean, be enthralled as two slits reveal miles of legs swaying and swinging with a beautiful length of fabric. The parallel slices on the front of the skirt make an M, creating a sensual peekaboo effect for both legs as one walks in the outfit. Here’s a few of the double-slit dresses on the runway.

Our ladies on the street also dare to bare with double-slits.

The M-slit on the stylish street.

It’s not difficult to come to the conclusion that nothing beats the appeal of bare stems. So, with the Fall season approaching, designers and stylists have cleverly solved the dilemma of needing to create and pick pieces with enough coverage to combat the cold while still allowing their clients to show some skin; that’s where the M-slit comes in.
