The Hottest Skirt Trend of 2025 Pairs Best with These Shirt and Heel Styles.
It’s official: Celebrities are embracing the year’s skirt trend, following its appearances on the runways of Gucci and Max Mara for the F/W 25 season. This minimalist-favored ‘90s trend has returned to the fashion scene: the column skirt. The sleek, straight silhouette was recently worn by Tessa Thompson during a talk show visit in NYC this week. With her influence (she has established herself as a trendsetter), it’s safe to claim that this piece is among the season’s must-have items.
For styling tips with a column skirt, take inspiration from Thompson’s outfit. Her choice of a polo shirt and modern pumps were ideal companions for the stylish skirt. She finished off her ensemble with a striped leather jacket and a Birkin bag, resulting in a look that epitomized cool-girl style. The column skirt is a wise fashion choice, as demonstrated by Thompson; its silhouette instantly elevates any outfit. If you're looking to embrace 2025's hottest trend, continue reading to replicate this look and browse similar pieces.
