With a couple of inches along the hem making the difference between darling and dowdy, the midi skirt may seem like an intimidating trend to get right. But if you choose the right fit, style, and hemline for you, it can be ultra-flattering on any body type. A midi skirt typically hits between the knee and mid-calf, and the silhouette can range from a fitted bodycon to a tiered, full skirt. Basically, it works for any age, shape, or size. Choose a long column fit to show off your height if you're taller, or a high-waisted A-line cut to hug your curves.
In addition to being universally flattering, the midi skirt is a key part of an easy, compliment-worthy summer outfit. Let the flirty florals, silky fabric, or tiny pleats of the skirt steal the spotlight by pairing it with a plain white tee and flat sandals. We rounded up some of our favorite Banana Republic midi skirts, so you can wow your friends with this deceptively simple trend.
