Fall 2014 Styling Idea: Winterize A Flirty Skirt

by Megan Gustashaw

From mannish, round-shoulder coats to angora turtleneck sweaters, this season is all about a cozy, oversized top layer. Designers have been giving these voluminous pieces a feminine and flattering twist by styling them over slinky gowns and floaty skirts of all varieties. From the cool proportions and the play on texture to the subtle ’90s vibes, we’re totally in love with this trend.

Want to test out the look? Indoors, follow Dion Lee’s lead and pair a silky knee-length skirt with a cozy sweater and tough ankle boots. For the commute, take a page from BCBG and find a major coat or leather sweatshirt to pop over top. For nighttime, let Jason Wu’s effortless take on glamour be your source of inspiration. Pair a velvet or silk bias-cut gown with a oversized blazer or menswear-inspired coat for the perfect play on masculine/feminine.
