A Variety of Skirt Styles and Silhouettes
Plus-size skirts come in so many different styles and silhouettes, so it’s not hard to understand why they’re such a closet staple. Most women love to have a variety of skirts on-hand because it makes their wardrobes even more versatile—you can easily swap your pants and jeans for skirts while coordinating with all your blouses, tops and tees. Choosing your skirt length can vary based on your comfort level and the occasion you’re dressing for (which we’ll get to in a minute). plus-size maxi skirts are the longest skirts and can feature different cuts and waistlines, from casual styles with elastic waistbands to a fancy tulle ballgown skirt that goes to the floor. Midi skirts are slightly shorter, hitting between the calf and knee. Pencil skirts and A-line skirts usually fit into this category. Plus-size mini skirts are shorter, hitting somewhere between the top of your thigh to the top of your knee. Typically the longer your skirt’s style, the more conservative it is; however, a maxi skirt with a slit can easily be more daring and sexy while still offering maxi style coverage.
Choosing your skirt’s style is all about your personality and comfort level. Once you know your desired skirt length, you can start playing with different fabrics and patterns. Floral print skirts and tiered skirts offer that boho skirt style we love. plus-size leather skirts, skater skirts, and lace skirts offer a bit more edge, and work well for those looking for a more gothic, glam, or punk rock look. Satin and silk skirts are all the rage, too, and work with everything from band tee shirts to a matching satin cami. The options and styles are truly endless, though these are the top trends in skirts we’re shopping for these days.
Skirts for Any Occasion
Skirts for work are an essential part of the workplace wardrobe as they can be more freeing and comfortable than pants. They also work well with all business and business casual tops, too, so having too many skirts is never a bad thing. Business skirts and business casual skirts are typically midi or maxi in length. A plus-size pleated skirt is a great option that always looks professional with a button-down or secretary style blouse. plus-size long skirts made of wool, linen, polyester, or cotton are also great options to wear to work, as their tailored details and crisp finish make them look extra professional.
Summer skirts can offer a nice, lightweight bottom when the temps are rising. plus-size tennis skirts make great sporty alternatives for those who want to take that athleisurewear look to the next level. Mini skirts are our favorite skirt option for summer, as are denim skirts—both offer fun and flirty alternatives to jean shorts and jeans during hot weather. Plus, they go with all your tees, tanks, and camis for one effortless summer wardrobe.
Skirts for wedding guests can offer a very unconventional look that will remain chic without any risk of detracting from the bride’s look. In fact, many wedding guests might prefer a two-piece look for the ability to wear the pieces to so many other formal events. Plus-size formal skirts made of sequins, tulle, linen, and embroidered detailing can all offer unique, refined wedding alternatives to dresses. plus-size dressy skirts can be worn later on dates and other formal events, too.
Casual skirts for everyday wear really run the gamut, but what makes them effortless is their fabric. Flowy maxi dresses of cotton are a great boho style go-to that never fails for everyday wear. Jean skirts of any length offer the same kind of versatility that jeans do. They keep it casual while adding feminine flair. And satin skirts can be casual with simple sneakers and a tee shirt—it’s all in how you style them! Speaking of…
How to Wear plus-size Skirts
Styling any kind of skirt always depends on the length and how tall you want to appear, too. When choosing footwear, comfort is key. Keep in mind the weather and style your footwear accordingly. For example, open-toed sandals or strappy heels work best with skirts in the spring and summer. Heeled booties and tall boots work best in the colder months with heavier skirts and long-sleeved blouses. Maxi skirts are one of the ideal styles for year-round wear for this reason—you can style them up or down with different styles of heels. Plus, they look great with all tops and in a variety of settings. No matter your personal style, we can help you find cute plus-size skirts right here at Dia & Co.
