Buy the spinny skirt. Treat yo' self. :P
Anyway, you really can't go wrong with a basic, elastic waist cotton skirt with pockets. Classic. I have like 3 of these in different colors.

I'd actually recommend an Amazon Prime Wardrobe order. Try a maxi and a knee length, a-line and full circle. This will give you a good sense of the range of styles. If you want tighter stuff, try a pencil skirt.
Yeah the Purple Rain is a fun and super easy to care for garment too. Almost impossible to wrinkle.
Honestly, I wish that Patagonia, 5.11, and Kühl would do some tacti-skirts lol. All their skirts are cut in a way that vigorous movement causes serious modesty issues, particularly for those of us who wear skirts with half-slips rather than underpants. And although I don’t care about an occasional flash of the goods (showing or seeing) as I’m an adult and not an immature child, others are often not as forgiving.
I’d kill for a calf or ankle length Patagonia winter puffer skirt with pockets with a semicircle cut so one can move in it well.
Note: I have found these half slips to be so easy wearing that they have replaced all my other underwear. I look at it as the natural progression to loose boxers… I have even added a cheap plastic snap to the bottom hem of the slip just in case of a situation where unbifurcated garments would be problematic.
The same place everything comes from! 😋 Amazon! 😅🙈

I think I'm too tall for heels! 🙈😝
I was looking at these (that I'm in love with!) to go with the outfit https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08B1FHCRW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apan_i_3FNTFDXMHWVT8YAVBKM8?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
But they're expensive and I got ghosted anyway so imma not waste my money 🤷🏻♀️😋
Sure - the link is here:

These are the ones I got, just cheap ones for now until I start venturing out in public more often: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0832JG7RJ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I also wear a US10.5M but in a regular (D) width, and these are a 13W(B/C). I tried a women's 12 and a 12.5 in both narrow (B/C) and wide, but neither fit right. The 13 isn't perfect, but it's close enough. I do think you're going to have some challenges with the width, but I'd start with a women's 13 extra wide and adjust from there. I do think your options are going to be pretty slim unfortunately. The next thing might be to look at some shops online that cater specifically to crossdressers. There's a lot of 'sissy' and 'cosplay' styles that you'll have to wade through to find the one or two more conservative styles unless that's what you're interested in though (at least that's been my experience so far).
Thanks! My personal style has always been pretty casual, jeans or shorts and a t-shirt, or in cooler weather a flannel or a henley. Even my most formal day-to-day wear, it'll be something like a pair of slacks and a button down, or polo shirt, business casual, really. Trying to figure out styling those looks around a skirt has been my challenge, but I'm getting it. My wife has been great for giving me feedback and advice. This outfit for example, I wasn't sure about it, but I threw on some tights and pumps and it kind of pulls it all together in my eyes.
On a related note, I just ordered a new pair of boots that I'm really looking forward to incorporating into some of my looks. They've got a taller heel than anything I've ever worn before, and that's going to be interesting, but I'm dying to try them out. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08NF9Q65J?ref=ppx\_yo2\_dt\_b\_product\_details&th=1&psc=1
Just FYI, if you (or anyone) are still interested in the skirt, I was browsing Wdirara's other styles and noticed the dragon skirt I got is available again (only in large though).

This looks great on you! For the hanger I'd recommend folding the dress over at the waist and clamping it in one of these
>Now would someone please give me a valid reason why men should not wear short skirts?
The accidental flashing issue is relevant, but I only mention this because I only go commando, pants or skirts, no difference, so I only wear long ones in public.
I personally don't have a problem with nudity; I consider clothing to be mostly utilitarian and decorative. But I'm not everyone, and it's just a matter of social circumstance that concealing ones bits is necessary, and no level of personal comfort is the hill I want to die on.
BTW, here's a recommendation for longer A-Line skirts with pockets that are well made, cheap, and the pleating keeps yer donger from standing out.
If anyone is interested, the skirt is this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005IM5ATG/ref=twister_B0723BY7DM
Size 2XL and you can see it looks nothing like in the amazon picture ;-). Way better and good fit for a male. Just need a belt (I'm L, not 2XL but that 2XL is like XL in non-asian size).
Go to Amazon for Dickies Cargo Skirt. I have a few of them and love them!
