worst skirt

Bias cut ending mid-calf

Why: this difficult length doesn't show enough leg to elongate it and too much to hide the fact that legs aren't your strong point.

Long skirt and flat shoes

Why: this is will make you look like a long-legged person... whose pins have been chopped at the knee.

best skirt

Long with high heels

Why: as long as the shoes are covered all will assume it's your legs rather than the shoes that are giving you extra height.

Calf length with high boots

Why: wear these in the same colour and people will focus on your high butt perched at the top of endless legs.

alternative

Ending just below knee

Why: not only is this the thinnest part of your leg, but it leaves your entire calf open to the public, thus giving it the opportunity to show its maximum length.
