Would You Wear… a Knee-Length Denim Skirt?

The knee-length denim skirt trend on celebrities Jessica Alba, Kirsten Dunst, and Eva Mendes

If cringe-worthy middle school trends come to mind when you think of the denim skirt, you are not alone. Remember the frayed, micro-mini jean skirts we all wore circa ’05? Yep, me too.

Given their history, I never believed that denim skirts could look chic and polished…. but celebrities have been changing my mind about that recently. The current popularity of knee-length denim skirts has me excited to give these items a second chance.

Need styling tips? Look no further than Kirsten Dunst, Eva Mendes, and Jessica Alba above. Try pairing a knee-length (or slightly above-the-knee) denim skirt with a button-up blouse, a tied top, or wedges for a put-together outfit like Eva’s, or opt for a belt and breezy tank for a casual look a la Jessica.

    I like it in the “pencil” shape lol looks more polished, but the flowy skirt like jessica alba doesn’t look good at all lol

    I thought that jean “KNEE-length” skirts were LONG GONE ages ago?
    The only style I could possibly see myself wearing is the middle look.
    This new age the style is all about bodycon or at least for my taste.

    I’ve seen really adorable chambray slouchy ones. I wouldn’t wear a standard denim skirt but I’d try something updated like that!

    I’m rather short and it doesn’t look good on me so I avoid it.

    I actually really like demin skirts that hit maybe a couple of inches above the knee. I’m not a fan of mini skirts in any material, and I like dark wash demin skirts and a collared shirt as an alternative to jeans and tshirts when I am running errands.

    I have a beautifully flattering high waisted light wash one that my mom passed down to me that looks great with crop tops 🙂

    yes please lets have a modest dressing entry on this site. I love CF but so much of the fashion is with shorts and tanks that I can never really wear. It would be so awesome to have something like this!

    I think the trend looks so appealing (and trendy) because of the high-waist style. High waist is very trending, and because of that, the entire era is coming back in the forms of retro-styled/patterned high waist bathing suits, the harem pants, etc. The realization has hit the mainstream of the benefits of high waist clothing for ALL body types and its ability to create an hourglass figure where there was not one before.
