Skirts

Women's skirts for work, weekends and everything between

A skirt that fits well earns its place in the working week. Forcast women's skirts run from tailored pencil and column shapes for the office to bias-cut satin, wrap and flared styles for dinners and days off, in sizes 4 to 18. Whether you want a mini, a midi or a floor-length maxi, the range is built for women who dress for work and want the same pieces to carry them into the evening.

Choose your length and shape

Pencil and column skirts, like the Kaitlyn Crepe Column Skirt, sit close to the body and read as the most formal option. A-line and faux wrap skirts skim rather than cling and move easily between desk and dinner. Bias satin skirts fall softly and suit an evening out. Short skirts pair well with tights and boots in winter; midi skirts are the all-rounder; maxi skirts give a long, uninterrupted line.

What to wear with a skirt

A tailored blazer and a heel make a pencil skirt boardroom-ready. Swap the blazer for a fine knit or a tucked shirt and the same skirt works for a client lunch. For weekends, a satin or wrap skirt with a camisole and low mules is relaxed without being casual. Belts, sheer tights and a structured bag change the mood without changing the skirt. Browse tops and knitwear to build the rest of the outfit.

Fabric and fit

Suiting blends with a little stretch and ponte hold their shape through long days at a desk. Crepe drapes cleanly, satin gives movement and shine, and faux leather adds texture to a mini or pencil shape. Fitted pencil styles are the least forgiving through the hip; A-line, wrap and flared shapes give you more room to sit and walk.
