Not Lace, Not Fringe—This Is the Hottest Skirt Trend Taking Over This Season
There's no doubt that skirts are trending this summer. From runway-inspired low-slung designs to 90's knee-length styles and fun fringe accents, skirts are becoming key pieces in the outfits of fashion enthusiasts. One notable skirt I've noticed all around as the weather warms up is the scarf skirt, also known as sarong skirts, pareo skirts, and eye-catching wrap skirts. For 2026, this summery style is not just for beach days anymore. Fashion-forward individuals are taking these striking wrap designs to city streets, pairing them with everything from classic button-downs to simple tank tops and even layering over basic trousers—offering a fresh, modern twist on the vacation skirt. They are also perfect for upcoming getaways, simplifying summer wardrobe choices; just add a basic tank, simple sandals, and some fun summer jewelry for an Instagram-ready look. Scroll down to see our favorite scarf skirts for summer.
