Use Case One: Skin By URL
References for switching a skin based on URL.
This Tutorial describes how Plone chooses a skin when you open a web page, and then describes the multiple ways that you can intervene to switch the skin. The Tutorial also discusses two common use cases, switching skins based on URL and the type of user (e.g., Anonymous or Authenticated).

Suppose that you want your site to use different skins depending on whether it is accessed via http://prefix1.---, http://prefix2.---, etc.
A skin must be being determined every time the site is accessed ("What does the URL look like? Well then, let's use this skin"). So, an Access Rule is the best way to switch the skin.
Once again, see EnSimpleStaging Tutorial - Switching Skins By URL and Using Zope/Apache to Switch Skins By URL for examples.
