The focus on celebration and fun is heavily captured within SS23 skirt assortments. The mini silhouette is remaining a favorite, with a continuous +11% increase on SS22 shows, the leg-bearing silhouettes is remaining a core trend, celebrated by influencers as well. This time, styles are ranging from academic tennis designs, to maximalist party styles and micro skirts, with low waists and even shorter lengths. Next to the mini, the midi length is gaining traction. The trend for columnar midi styles is updated with exciting details for the next seasons. From wrapped and knotted effects, to draped visuals created by gathers and drawstrings as well as exciting cut-outs around hips and waist. For a more pronounced feminine twist, fuller volumes are re-emerging. From easy vacation skirts in full volumes and mainly full-lengths to fuller plissé and pleated silhouettes, exuberant volumes are providing ease-of-movement balanced with a sense of day glow. In shorter versions, ruffled minis are adding youthfulness combined with form-hugging shirring or feel Y2K nostalgic and MTV music-video-ready. Take a closer look below:
