ankle-length skirt
Long flowing hemline
A skirt that extends down to the ankles, covering most of the leg.
The term is straightforwardly descriptive—if you can see the ankles but not the feet, it's ankle-length: She wore an ankle-length skirt to the formal dinner.
Sometimes called a maxi skirt in fashion contexts.
