1. Make sure the length is midi for your height. A midi skirt off the rack may not hit everyone at the most flattering midi length. What is that length? About two inches below the knee. You don’t want to the midi skirt to be so long it hits at the widest part of the calf. The highest stilettos in the world won’t slim you out.
2. Choose a neutral first. Despite the trendiness of a midi skirt, it’s actually a flattering, versatile silhouette. We suggest starting with a midi skirt in navy, black, gray or camel if you plan on wearing it for work and play. Only doing the midi off-duty? Try a denim midi skirt.
3. Don’t be afraid of print midi skirts. We are seeing a lot of soft abstract floral prints, fine optic prints and thin vertical stripes for midi skirts. Try any print midi skirt with a twinset at the office and with a V-neck T-shirt and moto jacket on the weekend.
4. Go for a streamlined shoe. We aren’t here to tell you you must wear heels with a midi skirt, but you do want to stick with a streamlined shoe. Anything more will look too heavy with a midi length skirt. Stacked heels, stacked heel ankle boots and pointed toe flats are the best shoes when wearing a midi length skirt.
5. Always tuck your shirt in. A midi skirt is chic, not frumpy. Even if you go casual with a lightweight T-shirt or tank top, make sure you have enough room to tuck it into the band of the skirt.
6. Choose the right sweep. The sweep is how much fabric the skirt has from waist to hem. Those with slim hips can opt for more fabric. Those with curves, should look for a midi skirt that gently skims the figure. Stay away from pleats if your are curvy since your curves will make the pleats rise in back.
7. Keep it simple. The silhouette of the midi skirt is trendy enough on its own, that it calls for limited styling. We love the midi skirt because they work with existing tops in our wardrobe, like silk blouses, lightweight sweaters and luxe racerback tanks. The more simple, the better when it comes to styling a midi skirt.
