Stylish Londoners Have Officially Ditched Dresses for Skirts


Over the past few years, the London street style look has revolved around dresses, whether that was a Rejina Pyo puff-sleeved midi, a Rixo floral tea dress, or a Molly Goddard tulle creation. Looking through recent street style pictures, it is clear that Londoners have taken a breather from their dress collections. The MVP of the street style scene in London right now is skirts, from bubble-hem minis to sweeping checked maxis. The general consensus is the bolder the skirt, the better.

The skirt revival has been happening across all four fashion cities, but London Fashion Week designers have been leading the charge. Aaron Esh introduced a cheeky bubble-hem mini, Molly Goddard has playful midis adorned with ruffle hems, and Chopova Lowena’s signature pleated Carabiner skirts have become one of the city’s most coveted fashion exports. Front-row darling Miquita Oliver also had me setting up secondhand alerts for a Burberry checked miniskirt after she wore one to the show.
