An embodiment describes a special skirt, and leggings, formed of a skirt like material in the shape of a t shirt that covers the entire buttocks area at the rear of the leggings and also has a part for covering areas of the front of the leggings.

The front portion of the skirt portion is a thin portion 111, which can be tied or otherwise clasped at the front to cover the crotch portion and to hold the skirt portion into place. The thin portion 111 gradually increases in thickness at 112, towards the back of the leggings which are shown in FIG. 2. At the area of the buttocks, the skirt extends down to a longer portion 120 which completely covers the buttocks in a similar way to the way that a skirt covers buttocks. The skirt 100 is sewn to the top waistband 105 of the leggings at least in the rear of the leggings, at stitch line 105. In one embodiment, the skirt is not attached to the leggings in the front at the thin portion 111.
