6 Celebrity Skirt Trends That A-List Celebrities Are Wearing Again and Again

Celebrities are just like us. They may not have the highest annual income, but when it comes to getting dressed in the morning, they still fall back on the same safe playbook. Tank topsandals, pretty dresses, and more are on trend for summer, but while we’re turning back to jeans after a disappointingly short summer, celebrities are looking for something a little more sophisticated. Enter the humble skirt. Scroll through social media or celebrity street style photos and you’ll notice skirts are back as a huge trend this season. Of course, wearing skirts in the summer is nothing new, but seeing everyone from Sabrina Elba to Sabrina Carpenter wearing dressy midi-length outfits this month will make you want to ditch the wide-leg trousers and get back into skirts.

Still not convinced? Take Emily Ratajkowski’s recent minimalist ensemble. Not only does she make a big statement with summer boots (more on that here), but a silk slip skirt instantly feels like the most comfortable thing to wear on a windy day. And if you missed Sienna Miller’s photos at Wimbledon, we suggest you Google them now. A polka midi skirt might not be the most inspiring, but with a coordinating shirt and just the right amount of midriff showing, it feels like a cute alternative to a stuffy shirtdress.

Whether you’ve got a wardrobe full of skirts and need some outfit inspiration, or you’re a longtime fan of pants looking for a reason to switch teams, scroll through to see the seven skirt trends celebs are happily wearing right now.
