On the back of summer’s big shorts revival I’m anticipating an equally enthusiastic short skirt comeback. It chimes with the tennis-core vibe of the last two summers, as we got more comfortable with getting our legs out and teaming tennis-adjacent skirts with low profile Keds, Supergassneakerinas and jazz shoe silhouettes*.
Celine cemented the idea with its SS26 womenswear show, a spirited shoutout to flouncy mini dresses given a sporty edge with flat pumps and stepped-in loafers. Post-Mounjaro, I’m expecting to see a lot more short flippy skirts paired with flat shoes (opera pumpsanyone?) and ankle socks, but offset with oversized rugby tops*, XXXL shirts* and structured blazers. Maybe the general public won’t go quite this short but hemlines are definitely rising, and the lower-height shoes makes it a wearable proposition.
