The maxi skirt made it’s big return over a year ago, with long, flowing fabrics back on the fashion scene in a big way – and it looks like this trend isn’t a fleeting one!

Months later, style gurus everywhere are still all about the maxi. We can see why, too; it’s versatile, wearable during every season, and can be styled in lots of different ways. Plus, maxi skirts are comfortable so you can feel relaxed while still looking stylish. What more could you want?

There’s a sustainable element to the maxi skirt too – because of how many diverse looks you can produce, you’ll generally get a lot of mileage out of it. And we love any item of clothing that will work in a slow fashion wardrobe!

Let’s take a look at some of the ways you can style this staple piece.

Every Day Denim

We love a denim maxi skirt, especially coming into Autumn. Teamed with a sporty sneaker and a bomber jacket, this is an elevated but low-key look, perfect for every-day wear, hanging with the girls, and as a casual work ‘fit!

The Silky Skirt

A silk maxi skirt is ideal for dressing up and down – and for landing in the middle! We love seeing it paired with an oversized tee and chunky sandals for a look that’s both feminine and fun. This is an outfit that’s ideal for shopping in the city, summer drinks, and dates where you don’t want to be too dressy.

A Monochrome Moment

Nothing screams “I have my life together” like a full monochrome look. We’re obsessed with the chic and streamlined vibe of a matching maxi skirt and top, perfect for whenever you want to feel like a baddie.

Sweet and Summery

The weather hasn’t exactly been in our favour this month, but that’s never stopped us before! Flowy, summery maxi skirts with boho textures are all the rage right now, and we can see why. Add beachy accessories and soft waves for a greek goddess vibe.

Pop of Colour

A bright and bold maxi is an immediate attention grabber, and we adore the way it makes an outfit feel fresh and playful. All you need is a basic top to match and you’re good to go. The more colourful your skirt, the better!

Dolled Up and Dressy

This is where the versatility of this staple wardrobe piece really comes into play. Take your maxi skirt from day to night just by adding a dressy shoe (like a heeled sandal or boot) and adding some glam accessories – et voila! You’re only gorgeous.
