Suedes Skirts Are Trending This Winter—5 Graceful Ways I'm Styling Mine

I don't know about you, but my TikTok and IG thread is currently flooded with fashionable people styling suede jackets, toting suede handbags and wearing suede boots. Yes, it's official, suede is the fabric of the moment.

But while jackets and coats have been reigning supreme recently, there is another category to get excited about: suede skirts. Previously loved for its nod to the bohemian '70s aesthetic, this year suede skirts feel a little more grown-up as brands lean away from fringing and adopt a more elegant approach. Think A-line shapes, flared hemlines and neat minis imagined in a variety of neutral colourways that can act as the foundation of a really great winter outfit.

Whether you opt for a classic tan or want to explore deep earthy tones like camel, chocolate brown, and rust, you’ll be surprised at just how versatile a suede skirt can be. An ideal partner to your favourite chunky knit, just add a pair of knee-high boots for that effortlessly cool French-woman vibe. I will also be adding a suede midi pencil skirt into my workwear rotating and will be styling it with a fitted turtleneck and a sharp blazer. For the weekend, why not consider a suede mini with a leather biker or a button-down cardigan alongside a pair of chunky loafers and cashmere socks. See? It really is a capsule wardrobe hero!

Need more inspiration? I've got you covered. Scroll down to see five of my favourite suede skirt outfit ideas to save and recreate this winter.
