THE SLIT
Hello hi
This is a very simple trend that comes a long way from back in the 80s. The trend is back in power making fashion marks in the streets. The name says it itself; it can be a skirt/dress/shirt with one side or more of it cut up to any level.. The most common I've noticed is maxi dress slits, they really look gorgeous. In our SA slang lingo we call them Vezi thangas lol derived from a Zulu say "veza amathanga" meaning show your thighs. This trend is one of the best ways ladies can show their sexy toned flawless legs. The slit also gives the outfit an elegant but fun feel to it, it grabs the eye. There's no rule as to how you can rock the slit, we just have to make sure our legs are worth the show lol. But otherwise, slit wear goes with anything, from flats to heels.
Let's look at some of the photos of slit outfits that caught my fashion eye

I love this skirt because the slit can be zipped up and turn it into an normal skirt. Fashion is fun isn't it?
Another slit up tribal print skirt, simple but nice
The type of slit that makes an outfit super sexy, it's a small, thick and curved slit.. I'm inlove with this dress
You can also slit it up in an evening dress without looking tacky
It's not a big trend if it hasn't passed on the Queen B of SA. Bonang serving thigh in a white gown. Super gorgeous
I hope yol love this slit game, it's kinda cool and versatile. Go and get it and be part of the slit congress..
