Skirts Are *It* for Fall—6 Outfits That Will Dominate the Fashion Scene

The buzziest looks from the fall/winter collections have one thing in common: skirts. Skirts on their own are hardly groundbreaking as a clothing category since there are new versions each season, but what is interesting are the strong designs, fresh silhouettes, and already-viral quality of the pieces that are dropping this fall. Prada's floral-embellished circle skirts and miniskirts, in particular, caused a wave of commentary on the internet when they debuted. Now that they are arriving in stores, they are causing an equal frenzy of excitement among the fashion crowd as they are clamoring to test-drive them and add them to their wardrobes.

Other fall skirts are primed to take over this season, including everything from the pencil skirts that will dominate the corporate trend to the fresh ways we're seeing maxi skirts styled. Here are the fall outfits with skirts to add to your arsenal of looks for the season ahead.

Circle-Skirt Outfits

Easily, some of the most talked-about looks from the collections are the A-line circle skirts that were seen throughout the season, including Dior. The high-volume circle skirts will no doubt be hot items on the street style scene at fashion month this season.

Pencil-Skirt Outfits

Corporate dress codes are carving themselves out as one of the biggest trends for fall. With that comes a return to sleek pencil skirts, as spotted on the Saint Laurent runway. Just add a low-cut tank top, cuff bracelets, and a leather belt.

Midi-Skirt Outfits

The collection at Miu Miu was a master class in how to layer and style closet basics, from leggings to hoodies to knitwear. Many of the standout looks showcased directional ways to wear midi skirts this fall by adding sheer tights, cardigans, and layers of tees. If you've been looking for a cool way to wear midi skirts, this is it.

Maxi-Skirt Outfits

Maxi skirts have been buzzy for the last year as we've seen designers lean into longer hemlines. While maxi skirts may not be brand-new this season, we're seeing fresh ways to style them. On the Khaite runway, it was all about pairing loose, untucked camisoles for a cool take on modern minimalism.

Matching Skirt Sets

Matching skirt sets may conjure images of tailored suiting, but we're seeing different spins on coordinating pieces this season. At Tory Burch, sophisticated tunic tops and long skirts introduced a fresh way to do co-ords for fall.

Miniskirt Outfits
