Women's Skirt

The skirt, a feminine piece

The skirt is a must-have in women's fashion. It has stood the test of time with an elegance and versatility all its own ;) However, its history is far from smooth... We explain!

In its early days, the skirt was mainly reserved for the noble and aristocratic classes. It was a symbol of wealth and social status, often adorned with embroidery and precious fabrics. But it wasn't always perceived as a fashion item accessible to all.

It wasn't until fashion icons and avant-garde designers like Coco Chanel recognized its potential and reinvented it for all women.

The wardrobe essential

The skirt is much more than just a garment. It's a true expression of your personality and style, ladies! Timeless and versatile, it deserves a special place in your wardrobe. So, whatever your mood or occasion, don't forget to pull out your favorite skirt and wear it with confidence and panache ;)

Why do we love skirts so much?

The skirt has the magical power to adapt to every occasion and every body type. Whether mini, midi or maxi, they're sure to enhance every woman's assets.

In summer, it's the light, flowing version for a bohemian look. In winter, thicker materials such as velvet or wool are preferred for a cozy, comfortable look.

The skirt is also synonymous with femininity and freedom of movement. Whether you're at the office, in the evening or on a relaxing weekend getaway, a skirt can easily adapt to any look.

How to wear a skirt

For a sophisticated look, opt for a pencil skirt paired with a flowing or lace blouse. Add a pair of heels and a matching clutch, and you're ON POINT for a day at the office or a dressy evening out.

If you prefer a more chill look, opt for a pleated midi skirt. Wear it with a basic tucked-in t-shirt and a pair of white sneakers. Add a denim jacket for a chic & chill effect.

And for those who like bold looks, don't hesitate to play with contrasts! A leather miniskirt combined with an oversized cashmere sweater and high boots will give you a rockin', on-trend look.

The different types of skirt

Women's skirts come in a wide range of styles to suit every style, occasion and body type. Here are the most popular types:

The best materials for a skirt

As with all dressing nuggets, the choice of materials is essential to find THE skirt that will sublimate your style while meeting your current needs and desires:
