Morphology

miniskirted = miniskirt (transparent) = mini + skirt + ed

Formed from the compound 'mini' + 'skirt' with a regular adjectival '-ed' indicating 'wearing or characterized by', so the meaning is directly derivable.

Etymology

Miniskirted comes from mini- at the start meaning 'small', as in 'minivan', and skirt meaning 'a piece of clothing worn around the waist'. So, miniskirted means wearing a very short skirt that shows the legs.
