Last year was all about the micro-mini – barely-there designs slung low on the hip and only for the bravest of the fashion crowd. This year, the fashion pendulum swings once more to bring attention to the miniskirt’s polar opposite: the maxi. For spring/summer 2023, hemlines dropped to the floor, with slinky form-fitting skirts trailed along the Valentino and Saint Laurent runways. The long skirt sentiments continued into the autumn/winter 2023 menswear collections too, where tailored maxis debuted at Alexander McQueen and Gucci. And of course there’s Gigi Hadid, who, by the sheer power of her celebrity street-style sightings alone, brought low-rise denim variants back into the picture.
If there’s any trend you’re hopping on this year, make it the maxi skirt. Whether its a faded denim iteration or a belted wool staple, we’ve compiled a list of 15 maxi skirts you’ll want to add to cart this season.
