Too long or too short are not enough to show the classical style of horse-faced skirts. It is recommended that petite girls prefer a nine-point pony-faced skirt, which will expose the skin appropriately and make them look lighter; taller girls can try a full-length skirt, which will make them appear more agile and elegant.
