Spring/Summer Trends: The Maxi Skirt

Posted by Styloko

Hems dropped last season and they’re set to stay that way for now.  As a great alternative to the also trendy mid-calf length and mini, the look is varied, from boho to glam and glam-grunge.  For a soft look, go for a floral maxi skirt or for an edgier one, team with chunky platforms and statement jewellery.  Whichever you go for, maxi skirts are flattering to all body shapes.
