The power of a skirt must never be underestimated. From the classic pencil skirt which instantly makes you feel like a boss lady to the breezy midi that transforms you into a princess, this garment has the magical ability to alter your mood while making you look good.
Although skirts have always been a staple in our closets, this season they are back in the spotlight. We spotted many variations of this classic—from mini skirts to knitted midis to pleated ones. Off the runway, it seems like celebrities like Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa have fully embraced this trend as their Instagram feed suggests.
If you’re looking for a skirt that you can wear for every season and occasion, then you’ve come to the right place. Take a look at our curated edit to find the best timeless skirts to add to your closet.
Pencil Skirts
Whether you wear it to work or don it for a dinner date, a pencil skirt that hugs your curves makes you look smart and sophisticated. For a professional setting, style it with a shirt and a pair of pumps. Opt for sneakers and a casual t-shirt for a relaxed look.
Pleated Skirts
A pleated skirt is a must-have for any woman. This particular style can easily be dressed up or down, depending on what you wear it with. Going for lunch with friends? Pair it with a fitted t-shirt, a long chain and wedges. Simply add a statement necklace to make this look date-night ready.
A-line Skirts
While this style came about in the ‘60s, it never went out of fashion. This easy-to-wear silhouette is a favourite for almost every woman. Choose a floral print for a more feminine look or simply opt for a solid-coloured one, trust us, you will not regret this investment buy!
Wrap Skirts
Diane von Furstenberg may have turned the wrap dress into a fashion icon, it’s the dresses’ half-sibling that we are obsessed with–the wrap skirt. Minis, midi, a-line, denim and more, these skirts come in just about every print, colour and length. For those who like to show a little leg, these peek-a-boo skirts will be your go-to for every adventure.
