The freezing wind slipping under their skirts? The dedicated fans couldn’t care less. For them, spring and summer are definitely not the only seasons fit for wearing skirts.

Whether it’s a pencil silhouette, raw denim style, or a quirky bubble shape, skirts consistently come close to dethroning jeans as the go-to choice—whether on vacation or at the office.

How to Rock the Pleated Skirt Trend?

With just a week before the switch to winter time, it’s the perfect moment to soak up some vitamin D. Whether you prefer it in the ultra-trendy butter yellow or more autumnal tones, the pleated skirt brightens up any look.

The pleated or accordion skirt features fabric with narrow, straight pleats at the top that fan out gracefully. It’s THE chic skirt of the moment. Naturally, the longer, the better—it adds a touch of majesty. Romantic yet comfortable, this effortless piece goes with nearly everything and boasts the most valuable of assets: it complements all body types.

A Skirt That Suits Every Figure

Finding the right fit can be a challenge, especially since major brands don’t always offer cuts that flatter curvier figures. However, a fuller bust, rounded belly, or voluptuous hips shouldn’t stop anyone from wearing what they love. Even though there aren’t specific designs for curvy women, certain styles, like the pleated skirt, tend to enhance their figures more effectively.

For length, a midi cut—falling mid-calf—is ideal for those with toned legs. If you’re self-conscious about your calves, go for an ultra-long model that reaches the ankles. This skirt length is also very on-trend this fall.

Selecting the Perfect Length and Material

When it comes to fabric, satin wins all the praise. This material flows beautifully and highlights curves. Opt for a skirt where the pleats start at the waist to subtly downplay volume around the stomach. Additionally, choose fabrics like viscose over jersey, which may add weight to your look.
