Retviews’ data indicate that both mass and luxury markets have shifted focus towards maxi skirts, rather than the mini skirt which gained traction in 2022, in part thanks to Miu Miu’s micro mini skirt. However, this fall and winter, the maxi skirt is making its way into brand assortments. Within mass market collections, the presence of maxi skirts in assortments has grown by a significant 35%, whereas mini skirts’ assortment share decreased by 3%, YoY. The same is seen within the luxury market for their fall and winter collections.
Do colder days mean longer skirts, or could the hemline index theory be at work? Indicating that hemlines get longer in times of recession and shorter when economic situations are positive, could the long skirt trend directly reflect the current state of the economy?
