If you want to look stylish this fall, choose a trendy skirt. In 2025, designers are reviving feminine silhouettes, incorporating a play of contrasts, and drawing on retro references. Both provocative minis and modest office-style maxis are in fashion. Which skirt styles will be trendy this fall season, and how to wear them?
Pencil skirt in maxi length
This season, the classic pencil skirt is extended to the ankles, emphasizing the figure and minimalism. It is worn with leather jackets and chunky shoes, or with knit bodysuits and high heels.
Especially relevant are models with slits or leather variations. This style is perfect for the office, meetings, and smart-casual looks.

Very short black skirt
Fashion is cyclical, and we now see a new wave of Y2K (2000s) popularity. The super mini is one of the key elements of that era. Modern designers have reimagined it with new textures and materials such as leather, denim, and heavy textiles.
Paired with high boots, an oversized sweater, or a longer blazer, this skirt creates balance between edginess and a trendy silhouette. Besides knits, structured fabrics, such as tweed, leather, and denim, are also in fashion.

Polka dot
The polka dot pattern is a true classic that never goes out of style.
It symbolizes femininity, playfulness, and retro chic style. And while polka dots were popular in past seasons, in fall 2025, they are gaining special relevance again.
Particularly popular are silk, viscose, or chiffon options with light movement. Style with basic knit tops, blazers, or bombers for an interesting mix. Suitable for everyday office looks and dates.

Low-waist skirts
The low-rise style, once the hallmark of 2000s fashion, has triumphantly returned to the runways and become one of the most controversial yet popular fall 2025 trends.
Once considered outdated, it is now taking a leading position in fashion bloggers' wardrobes.
A low waist is relevant not only for mini skirts but also for midi and maxi skirts. This season, popular options include:
- Denim: a timeless classic. Low-rise denim skirts are perfect for everyday outfits.
- Satin: satin maxi skirts with a low waist look very elegant and luxurious. Pair them with blouses for an evening look.
- Leather: low-rise skirts made of leather or eco-leather add boldness and edge, creating the perfect balance between femininity and rebellious spirit.

Camel-colored skirts
The most neutral hit of the fall season.
The beige palette is the main color of fall 2025. A skirt in this shade is a universal wardrobe element that pairs well with white, black, gray, chocolate, or even red pieces.
Both soft knits and suiting fabrics are on trend. Wear them in total looks or as an accent in a minimalist style.
