I'm a Gen Z fashion editor—here's the skirt trend that my friends and I in London are currently loving.

      When you're accustomed to seeing the city dominated by jeans, it’s hard not to notice the shift in styles in London. Over the past week, I’ve observed that the capital's trendsetters are wholeheartedly embracing the season's top skirt trends. One particular style that’s gaining traction is the white tiered maxi skirt. A true bohemian essential that seems to be a wardrobe staple for every Gen Z fashion enthusiast (including many of my friends, so I know it’s a real trend), it has managed to rise to the top of my wish list. As someone who typically wears baggy jeans and oversized tees, I find myself attracted to it for its effortlessly chic silhouette.

      Usually designed in an A-line shape, which complements the tiered structure well, it has proven perfect for the warm summer days we’ve been enjoying in London recently. While this skirt trend comes in various lengths, the maxis particularly fit the current boho vibe that is so prevalent this summer. And why white? It’s a color that helps keep you cool on those hot days and goes well with just about anything in your closet.

      Although it may seem like a new trend for summer 2025, tiered maxi skirts have been steadily gaining popularity for a while now. Chloé kickstarted the bohemian revival in its autumn/winter show last year, signaling the return of the tiered maxi. By the time the spring/summer 2025 collections were unveiled, these skirts were everywhere—Alaïa showcased them in light materials, while Jacquemus featured them paired with a low-cut jacket.

      Versatile and effortlessly chic, this skirt trend pairs beautifully with both a matching white lace broderie top and strappy sandals, as well as with a graphic tee and trainers, making it a staple in London. Ready to join this fashion trend? Scroll down to check out my selection of the best white tiered maxi skirts currently available, including the one I plan on purchasing for myself.
