Below, we've rounded up fall's favorite skirt trends along with shopping options with all sorts of prices. Keep scrolling to find your skirt pick of the season, and thank us later.
Knit Skirts
If you're always down for a cozy look, knit skirts are the way to go. Opt for a set to keep things easy, or differentiate your style game with a cropped sweater or an oversize blazer.
Leather Skirts
Leather skirts have to be a WWW favorite for many reasons. They're easy to style, they always look sophisticated… We could go on. Whether you're looking for a tailored midi version or a trendier mini, you'll find your dream skirt on the market this season.
Pleated Skirts
While pleated skirts take over in the summertime, their popularity doesn't stop in the fall.
Plaid Skirts
Would it be fall without plaid? It's the print that doesn't stop giving, truly. Style yours like Anna above with a matching shacket, or cozy up in an oversize cardigan and chunky boots.
Trouser Skirts
The name is exactly what you're thinking. When a skirt has the cinched, buttoned waist that's usually on trousers, that is a trouser skirt. Trouser skirts more polished than any other skirt and are easy to wear with chunkier knits.
