In the world of fashion, everyone has their own perspective. Transitioning to this year, the burning summer sun has set a firm idea in every fashionista’s mind: there’s no way she’s giving up her summer wardrobe in September. Meanwhile, for some, school or work has already started, yet the classic combination of raw denim jeans and a suitable blazer remains missing.

Wearing a skirt acts as a perfect method to extend the summer season. However, it’s time to put away the micro-skirt. Instead, the midi-length skirt, more suited to an office uniform, will accompany us to work and beyond this fall.

The Skirt Season

Spotted on numerous fall-winter 2024-2025 fashion show runways, the demure-length skirt is THE most desirable piece at the moment. It usually falls between the middle of the calf and just above the knee, catering to individual preferences. To wear it correctly and avoid any fashion faux pas, one must be familiar with a few styles. Besides winning universal approval, these guarantee a flawless silhouette.

The pencil skirt, both classic and basic, never fails to impress. A timeless icon from the 1940s, this trend flatters all body types. The working woman pairs this slim-cut skirt, which balances strength and femininity, with a cashmere cardigan or a blazer. She opts for pumps or heeled sandals to elongate her figure.

Unanimous Approval

The hippie style reinvents itself and notably transitions from pastoral scenes to a more corporate environment. To shift the boho-chic trend from summer to fall, light materials are set aside in favor of a suede skirt. The suede skirt remains bohemian yet structured. The material is flexible, soft, and velvety, and appears even more luxurious when rendered in sandy, earthy tones.

The nineties aesthetic continues to attract followers. The iconic slip skirt from this eclectic decade of fashion trends is a standout midi skirt. Seen in numerous backstage photos from the golden age of supermodels, its low waist and silky aesthetic make it the holy grail for “slip dress enthusiasts.” Yes, it’s still appropriate to embrace the (beautiful) visible lingerie trend.

Midi Skirts with Vintage Prints

Fall 2024 will also see a resurgence of vintage prints. Midi skirts adorned with checks, polka dots, florals, or gingham will be ubiquitous. To avoid veering too much toward a “granny” style, opt for a monochrome look and accessorize it with the right pieces.
