High summer means high time for miniskirts and dresses—just ask our August cover star, Olivia Rodrigo. Perfect for the warm weather season, the leggy silhouette has reigned supreme not only on the runway, but our shopping carts, too.

Miu Miu and Prada are the most synonymous with the short style; as seen here, modeled on Rodrigo. Thanks to Miuccia, mini hemlines are no longer reserved for schoolgirls and the Clueless fandom, but proudly worn by some of fashion’s chicest insiders. Of the latter, miniskirts from Wardrobe.NYC to Cos are getting their time in the spotlight, and the same goes for minidresses from Paco Rabanne to Reformation.
