Launchmetrics Spotlight/Gucci; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Altuzarra; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Bally; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Carolina HerreraFor the past several seasons, designers have been putting skirts into full focus, anchoring their collections around a few key skirt styles. This includes Tory Burch's gauzy sheer styles, Miu Miu's pleated schoolgirl-esque skirts, and the voluminous A-line silhouettes at Prada. For spring 2024, designers are only doubling down on their fascination with these outfit-making skirts, and there are so many fresh styles on deck for the season ahead.
After combing through the runways, my social media feeds, and the market, I've landed on the eight skirt trends that I'm positive will have a long-term effect on 2024 and beyond. With beautiful heavy-satin skirts inspired by the Altuzarra runway and the elegant A-line styles that are currently having a renaissance, consider this list to be your North Star for all things stylish 2024 skirting.

@fannyekstrand; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Altuzarra; The Style StalkerThere's no denying that sheer skirts have reigned supreme over the past few seasons, and 2024 is set to be another banner year for the translucent style. Instead of completely see-through skirts, prepare to see more semi-sheer fabrics by the likes of Altuzarra and Carven that bring an elevated feel to the otherwise riskier look. Take a cue from their runways and style one with a simple knit sweater or boxy blazer for added polish.

@hoskelsa; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Gucci; @camillecharriereWhether or not you have a desk job, you're going to want to dress like you're headed into the boardroom. That's right—pencil skirts, especially in slick patent leather and corporate-coded pinstripes, are making a comeback. If the "office siren" trend resonated with you, you're going to want to tap into the look with one of these midi styles.

@helsastudio; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Altuzarra; Launchmetrics Spotlight/CarvenHeavy satin is already shaping up to be a major 2024 trend. We've been reporting on satin coats and satin shoes for months now, but satin skirts are arguably where the pretty material hits its peak. In fact, designer Joseph Altuzarra is so committed to the look that he doused nearly his entire collection in the sumptuous fabric, and the styles Elsa Hosk offered in her last brand drop have gone viral.

@hoskelsa; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Gucci; @annelauremaisNow, I'm not saying that this season marks the end of maxi hemlines as we know them, but let me at least introduce you to what I'm predicting to be the next go-to staple: tailored minis. Think of these menswear minis like the skirt version of your favorite trousers. The most 2024 way to wear them is with flat shoes like loafers, ballet flats, and sneakers.

Launchmetrics Spotlight/16Arlington; @sylviemus_; @16arlingtonAny maximalists in the house? While many of the skirt styles on deck lean elegant and subdued, there's at least one that speaks to the bolder dressers among us: daytime sequins. On the 16Arlington and No.21 runways, skirts with large-scale sequins—also called paillettes—made shimmery statements. While sequined skirts are usually categorized by eveningwear, this batch is all about wearing them with wardrobe basics for a more casual spin.

@nnennaechem; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Altuzarra; @fannekstrandWe've noted how full circle skirts have been bubbling back up this year after a long hiatus, and now, the '50s-inspired silhouette hitting its peak with pretty A-line styles that feature cinched waists and full-volume skirts.

@beaufille; Launchmetrics Spotlight/CarolinaHerrera; @thoravaldimarsSheer skirting is coming in not just one, but two iterations this spring. Delicate sheer lace skirts have popped up in several collections including Carolina Herrera where they were styled alongside classic pumps for an ultra-elegant feel.

@yanyanchan; Launchmetrics Spotlight/Bally; Launchmetrics Spotlight/MSGMNo matter your personal feelings on them, you're going to be seeing a lot more bubble-hem shapes in 2024. At Schiaparelli and Altuzarra, two-piece skirt sets were given the puffed-up treatment for maximum drama, but at Bally and MSGM, bubble hems came in the form of softer draping on dresses and skirts. I love the look of a mini bubble hem with tights and heels for a night-out ensemble and am planning on trying one with a fitted blazer per the MSGM runway.
