As temperatures rise, naturally, hemlines are also ascending, from the micro-dress to short shorts to the star of the moment—the denim miniskirt.
In the early 2000s, the above-the-knee designs certainly felt like a trend, gracing the legs of everyone from Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie on The Simple Life to Rihanna in the “Pon de Replay” era. But the thigh-grazing skirts prove to be much more than a fleeting fad. Take a look at Carolina Herrera’s latest resort collection and you’ll see exactly how much the minis have matured. Instead of exaggerated distressed detailing that ruled the early aughts, microminis are being polished off with sophisticated washes and more modest lengths that could potentially pass for casual Friday office attire. Embellishments like the floral embroidery on Alessandra Rich’s resort 2022 denim minis also give the designs a joyous makeover that feels of the moment.
With a denim miniskirt, you get the best of both worlds: the ease and effortless appeal of blue jeans, plus the elevated, party-ready feeling of a reemergence skirt.
If you’re in need of a heatproof wardrobe staple, shop the best denim miniskirts around, below.
