Every fall, fashionable celebrities seem to gravitate toward classic jeans and sweaters. This year, however, I've noticed a refreshing shift as many trendsetters put their jeans aside and elevate their sweaters with slip skirts.
Just yesterday in L.A., Dakota Johnson turned heads in an oversize black crewneck sweater paired with a midi-length slip skirt. This effortless outfit was complemented by chic accessories, including cat-eye sunglasses, sleek black flats, and a large Bottega Veneta bag that added an element of luxury without overwhelming the outfit.

Johnson isn't alone in adopting this sophisticated yet approachable look. Olympia Gayot, the creative director and head of womenswear design at J.Crew, recently took to Instagram to share a photograph showcasing a lace-trimmed slip skirt and V-neck sweater. Even Jessica Alba was seen yesterday in an elegant brown slip skirt paired with an off-the-shoulder sweater.
Analyzing these ensembles, I've come to appreciate the unique synergy between a slip skirt and a sweater. Each piece can make a statement individually, yet when combined, they yield an effortlessly refined aesthetic. The casual nature of the knitwear beautifully offsets the sophistication of the skirt, resulting in a balanced, stylish outfit that feels laid-back and chic.
If you're eager to take a break from your denim collection and embrace this fashionable pairing, there's no better time than now to do so. Keep scrolling because I've curated a selection of the best slip skirts that will look perfect with the cozy sweaters already in your closet.
