The long skirt trend
When Miu Miu’s extreme mini skirts hit the shelves, resistance to the trend was impossible. Mini skirts were in every other corner shop and all over social media; pleated, like in the Miu Miu collection, straight, made of denim and even tulle. For those who’ve gone through all the emotions of denial, resistance, acceptance and commitment to get into this trend, it’s great news! It’s over! Exhale! The maxi is taking its role as a trendy length for this year.
Huge thanks to the Saint Laurent Spring 23 collection, in which hemlines touched the earth and which received fulsome praise after the runway show. Apparently the maxi length was liked not only by Millennials but also Gen-Zers judging by viral videos with long denim skirts from Zara on TikTok. It is little wonder that the maxi skirt has gone so viral, long skirts suit more body types, more occasions and even climate conditions than minis, so that the maxi is an item that any woman can carry off.
After all, Saint Laurent, Burberry, Max Mara, Blumarine, Chloe and Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring 23 collections are leading the maxi skirt trend. Options include denim, low-rise, high-waisted and tulle maxis are trendy this year and the most important thing is that the skirt has to touch the ground, no ankle length or midi variations.
Wear maxi skirts with cropped tops and oversized jackets like Max Mara or with turtle neck tops like Burberry. To get more style ideas on how to wear a maxi skirt head to Noelia’s Insta/Blog page (link), she’s a UK Stylist who gives lots of recommendations on how to wear trends.
