Undoubtedly, skirts are an essential piece of clothing. They may be styled in many ways because they are available in a broad range of forms, materials, and lengths. It could be difficult to choose which kind of skirt to wear and when, with so many variations seen on the catwalks and the streets. Changing out a top and a few accessories can also give a skirt a new meaning. In this article, we’ve compiled a list of the top skirt types to try this season along with styling advice to help you narrow it down.

 

 

(1)   A-LINE SKIRT

As the name implies, A-line skirts have the shape of the letter A. Although the length ranges from a mini to a maxi, it is typically thought of as knee-length or somewhat shorter. They’re comfortable, easy, and simple to wear. They go well together either casually or elegantly. For everyday workplace clothing, lain-coloured or subdued stripes and plaids are the ideal options. While wearing flowery motifs, plaits work best on your days off.

 

 

(2)   PLEATED SKIRT

Pleats, which are traditional folds, add a stylish element to any ensemble. Nevertheless, dressing down the style for more laid-back attire is simple. If you’re feeling daring, wear this style of skirt with a cropped button-down to carry on the uniform concept, but with the midriff exposed giving a street-style vibe. For a well-balanced appearance, layer it with a lightweight knit. Select a ballet flat or loafers to finish the look since pleats can be a little formal.

 

 

(3)   PENCIL SKIRT

We all need a pencil skirt in our wardrobe. Pencil skirts are knee-length, form-hugging, and tight. Because of this, pencil skirts are appropriate for formal events and the office because, regardless of colour or pattern, they appear formal. For certain body types, they look equally as good and sophisticated with elegant flats as they do with high heels. The pencil skirt looks great with a T-shirt or a lace top. It is an adaptable wardrobe piece.

 

 

(4)   MAXI SKIRT

Do you feel that your height prevents you from wearing a maxi skirt? Well, if worn properly, maxi skirts might make you appear taller. Anyone can wear them and look amazing, regardless of body type. Maxi skirts are an essential piece of clothing for every wardrobe. What makes them so wonderful is their versatility; not only do they fit with everything, but they are also incredibly comfy.

 

 

(5)   DENIM SKIRT

Denim skirts are available in various cuts and lengths to fit several demographics and occasions. The most important tip is to keep things simple and let the highlight shine. You may pair many outfits with your denim skirt, from button-downs to simple white t-shirts.

 

 

(6)   THE WRAP SKIRT

This skirt type is a little more unusual than the others; it’s also occasionally called an envelope or tulip skirt. Its layer of fabric “wrapped” or folded over another piece gives the skirt a distinct dimension not found in other types of skirts. The wrap skirt’s unique design can make styling difficult, but when paired with the appropriate pieces, it can easily add intrigue to an otherwise straightforward outfit. For a fun, laid-back look, try wearing a matching crop top. Alternatively, for a simple office-day appearance, pair it with a button-down.

 

 

CONCLUSION

Having a variety of skirt types at your disposal and understanding how to wear them is essential for transitional ensembles. Thanks to current trends, the wardrobe essential is always being updated. With their various lengths and materials, skirts are undoubtedly one of the most adaptable fashion pieces you can own. These skirts also have a certain timeless quality as vintage styles resurface in fashion, making them wise investments for years to come.
