According to the S/S 22 shows, though, the midi skirt has been replaced with something a little longer. Showcased at Gabriela Hearst, Peter Do, and Saint Laurent (to name a few), maxi skirts are most certainly having a moment right now.

Spotted at Prada, Miu Miu, and Fendi by Versace, as well as at Blumarine and Missoni, teeny-tiny skirts might be small in size, but they're making a huge impact on the fashion landscape right now.

Showcased on mini-, midi-, and maxi-length styles, S/S 22's sliced-up skirts aren't for the faint of heart. But then again, what fun would they be if they were?

Elevated with bright colors, eye-catching fabrics, and interesting silhouettes at Rejina Pyo, Brandon Maxwell, and Sandy Liang, pleated skirts got one hell of a refresh for 2022.

Look no further than the hip dip, a skirt trend that involves waistlines that give more than just a sneak peek at your lower hips—it displays them completely. Seen at Versace (on Emily Ratajkowski no less), Balmain, and Philosophy di Lorenzo Serafini, this hip-baring silhouette is giving low-rise bottoms a run for their money.
