Madelyn Cline Just Wore the 2023 Trend That's Replacing Miniskirts

Fashion trends sometimes ebb and flow even quicker than we can track them, but there's no denying that long denim skirts are usurping minis right now. Just look at Madelyn Cline's most recent outfit or the slew of street style looks at this year's fashion weeks in Copenhagen and New York. Yes, I'm aware it's cold in both of those cities, but that has certainly never stopped the fashion set from wearing whatever they please! 

Attending a Tommy Hilfiger dinner in NYC, our January cover star styled the trend with a couple of unfussy wardrobe basics. I adore how her outfit combines trendiness in the form of her denim maxi and pure, unadulterated timelessness via her white button-down shirt and matching pointy-toe pumps. Scroll down for outfit inspo and to shop the trend for yourself.

Erin Fitzpatrick
Senior News Editor

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
