Work Long Skirts

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I stop a long skirt making me look shorter?▾

High-waisted styles and tucked-in tops elongate the torso. Heels or wedges help obviously. A side slit adds a vertical line. Avoid overly voluminous styles if you're petite, a slimmer silhouette or A-line shape creates more length. Our Style Finder can suggest proportions that work for your frame.

What tops work with long skirts?▾

Balance is everything. Flowing maxi with a fitted or cropped top. Tucked-in knit or blouse to define the waist. Simple tee for casual. The one combination to avoid is oversized top plus voluminous skirt, keep one element fitted to maintain the silhouette.

Are long skirts practical for everyday wear?▾

A jersey or cotton maxi is as comfortable as leggings but far more polished. Look for pockets, an elasticated waist, and a length that clears the ground. These easy-wearing long skirts go from school runs to coffee dates to casual Fridays without a second thought.
