Be it a classic pleated skirt or a pencil skirt for the office, a warm wool model or a summer skirt made of airy, draped fabric: there are skirts for every season and every occasion, because these comfortable feminine pieces come in just about all shapes and sizes. The cut, fabric, colour and pattern determine the style – you can go for a close-fitting cut, shiny satin fabric or a colourful floral motif. At s.Oliver, you can buy many different types of skirts online. Check out our current range.
Tight mini skirt or floor-length maxi design? The occasion, weather and figure type are key when deciding which skirt design looks best.
Because mini skirts end at the middle of the thigh, they are perfect for hot summer days – but only on weekends and in your free time. For everyday office looks, you're better off with a midi design, which goes down to about knee height. The midi length is also great for leisure activities because it allows for more freedom of movement than the mini skirt, which is usually cut to fit very tight. Additionally, the midi length highlights the elegant cut. Floor-length maxi skirts look very feminine and are totally on trend. They look particularly good on tall, slender women.
A skirt with an A-line cut is defined by its very flared design. It is still tight at the hips but then flares out wider and wider towards the hem. This cut accentuates the feminine silhouette and suits women of all figure types. Additionally, the wide, swirling cut is very pleasant on warm days. A fine fabric that swirls with every step suits this type of skirt very well.
A maxi skirt also appears very elegant and feminine. Maxi skirts for the summer are made of light and airy fabric, making them a good choice for warm days. Anyone who likes to show a little leg can go for a design with side slits.
The choice of material is very important when it comes to summer skirts. Fabrics made of chiffon, a cotton blend or viscose jersey are very comfortable on the skin at the height of summer. Jersey skirts are slightly stretchy, which also makes them suitable for a game of beach volleyball or a bike ride.
The summer is also the perfect time to show your colours. A radiant ruby red, mustard yellow or azure blue is guaranteed to spread feel-good vibes. All-over prints with colourful floral motifs or simple nautical stripes are equally summery and cheerful.
For everyday wear, you can go for something more casual altogether. Alongside aspects of fashion and style, the practical features of a skirt are also relevant.
Cargo skirts are among the skirts with a sporty cut. They have a straight cut but still ensure lots of freedom of movement. They are made of robust, stretchy fabric. Patch pockets provide lots of storage space for car keys, cinema tickets and tissues.
Denim skirts are very practical both for everyday wear and evening outings. Denim is extremely robust and stands out thanks to its streetwear style. Denim skirts in a vintage style and skirts with frayed hems are especially casual.
Leather skirts can come across very glamorous and extravagant. A smooth leather skirt with studs or gemstones is perfect for a party outfit. Suede with a matte sheen is a more subtle choice.
You don’t have to avoid skirts in winter either: Fine or chunky knit skirts made of wool will keep you warm and go great with a wool coat.
Classic-cut skirts are great for a formal setting such as a business dinner or wedding.
Blouse or T-shirt? Various tops can go with a skirt depending on its cut. You can use different accessories to make your outfit suitable for the office, casual or more formal.
