This '70s-Inspired Skirt is Going to Be Everywhere This Spring

Celine : Runway - Paris Fashion Week - Womenswear Spring Summer 2020

Everything will eventually make its way back into style. At least that’s what I tell myself (and my boyfriend) when every inch of our apartment is bursting with clothes. The ruffle or tiered skirt, whether mini, midi, or maxi, is a prime example. The trend floated down the spring/summer 2020 runways, best illustrated by two Parisian powerhouses: Saint Laurent by Anthony Vaccarello and Celine by Hedi Slimane. Both designers paid homage to the “Bohéme” dressing of the ’70s, when Yves Saint Laurent ruled the world with his 1976 “Russian” runway show. It is still considered one of his most iconic collections to date.

Fast forward to 2020, and that hippie luxe look is back with the tiered skirt. Let me break it down for you: You need one in your closet this year. Pair it with a cute bikini top after a long day on the beach or give the silhouette an evening-appropriate twist by rocking it with a black turtleneck and stiletto boots. Regardless of how you choose to wear it, just remember what Yves Saint Laurent once said: “Fashions fade, style is eternal.”
