When I say the words “denim skirt,” your mind probably goes to a classic mini that often features cross-stitching where a pair of jeans would typically split. That description matches the most popular style over the past few years. I can still remember a time when I wouldn’t go more than a few days without wearing my denim mini. The times have changed as fashion designers push for longer hemlines, I’m convinced that the sleek maxi aesthetic that ruled the 1990s is going to be the name on everybody’s hips. Fashion girls have agreed with them including the long silhouette in even their casual wardrobe.
This leads to the phenomenon of the longer skirt that I have been seeing all throughout New York City. As temperatures drop, skirt lengths will follow. I can imagine us wearing these staples in the winter with tights and knee-high boots following closely behind. One might call it outdated—having peaked in the early 2000s—but word is out that this staple is back and very much here to stay. With this item being at the top of my list for fall, take a look at the below 31 pieces I currently have floating in my shopping cart.
