A step forward or backward for denim skirts, which this season abandon the mini hemlines to which they had accustomed us and dust off midi and maxi lengths criss-crossed by slits, moved by drapes and surrounded by asymmetries. But the history of the denim skirt begins in the 1970s, when the custom of sewing skirts with bold hues from used trousers spread among hippies. In the 1980s they overdo it with maxi pockets, buttons and balloon shapes, while it is the 1990s that brings the denim mini to the fore, short and high-waisted. The early 2000s saw the emergence of pencil skirts, severe and perfect, but it was not until 2003 that minis took on micro proportions, both in length and waist height. Since then, denim skirts have remained stable with proportional lengths and more or less accentuated effects in a measured play of cut and seam. The year 2023 brings the long skirt to the fore, rips it, colours it, cuts it, but makes it absolutely desirable. Try it out to believe it.

Among the celebrities, Pernille Teisbaek with extra long lightweight skirt, mini leather jacket and cagole boots by Balenciaga, leather bomber jacket also for Elsa Hosk who wears trainers and micro bag with it, underwear by Miu Miu in view for Emili Sindlev with maxi skirt and monochrome waistcoat, lots of black for Tine Andrea with blazer, top and flowered chocker, Caro Daur chooses burgundy and combines it with a crop top and knitted gloves, Annabel Rosendahl wears a white tank top, high-heeled sandals and a woven belt.
At the SS23 shows, Burberry raises the waist, makes the skirt curvy and accompanies it with a sheer top with built-in gloves; Diesel keeps the top to a minimum but does not skimp on the denim fabric for the skirt, which becomes a well-calculated asymmetric garment; Givenchy makes the total denim look its bulwark by dressing Bella Hadid in a bra and mini midi skirt with a matching bag; MM6 rips denim fabric for a distinctly destroyed effect; Mônot plays with mile-long slits and rather sheer tops; Rejina Pyo opts for two coordinating denim washes and a midi length; Rick Owens works with draping and acid washes, leaving the legs uncovered; angelic Total White for Tibi, accompanying the long skirt to the flawless tank top; cuts and seams for Vaquera, rounding it all off with a dazzling maxi belt; cuts, spikes and flutters for Y-Project.
