Legend has it, if you remember wearing something the first time ’round, you shouldn’t wear it again. But it’s 2023, and “rules” are there to be broken, especially when it comes to fashion. Everything Y2K is making a comeback, and as a 10-year-old at the time, I’ve worn a lot of these trends already—including floaty bohemian maxi skirts, pedal pushers (remember those?) and, of course, the floor-length denim skirt. Practically everyone owned one at the time, but these were left in the early ’00s, where I thought they belonged… until now, that is.
I bought a maxi skirt from Zara with a matching top at the start of spring, and quite frankly, I’m obsessed. The knit version soon sold out, and it only took me a week or so to spot a few people in the street also wearing it. Skip forward to summer, and I can’t stop seeing the throwback skirt loved by the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Christina Aguilera now worn by everyone from Bella Hadid to Zoë Kravitz. And that’s just the celebs. My whole Instagram feed is packed full of ways to wear them. So I’m calling it: The maxi skirt is officially back for 2023. Need further proof? Here are some ways to style them (sans disc belt) this summer, along with 21 styles to shop now.
