Summer is the season of discovery, new beginnings, constant experimentation, and maxi skirts. If in winter we tend to prefer comfort, such as dark colors, classic cuts and traditional fits, with the arrival of summer, the desire to challenge ourselves and test new territories also grows. Where black once ruled, big colors, materials, and effects now reign. The garment in question, subject to spring experimentation, is the skirt, a must-have of the warm season. Not short–not even midi–but maxi.

With its ample volume, often enriched by flounces, pleats, or layers of tulle, the maxi skirt is the elegant passepartout for tackling a workday in style, as well as a dinner with friends. With each step, the silhouette is transformed, thanks to the soft waves created in the fabrics, catching the light and, inevitably, the attention as well. Whether in light chiffon, structured cotton or fluffy tulle, this skirt has the power to evoke magical, fairy-tale atmospheres. The volume does not hide, but enhances, accompanying movement. When wearing a maxi skirt you will immediately feel like a princess, free to twirl with confidence and style.
The beauty of the maxi skirt also lies in its versatility. It can be worn with a minimal crop top for a casual look, or with a soft blouse and it immediately becomes boho style. An oversized sweater tucked inside the belt can break up the romance and create a relaxed urban street style. On the feet, everything is allowed, and the choice of perfect summer shoes is vast, from sandals and flip-flops to sneakers and ballet flats.
Maxi full skirt
Characterised by a wide and flowing silhouette, often made of lightweight fabrics such as cotton or tulle, the maxi full skirt is an iconic pattern reminiscent of the 1950s style, perfect for a romantic and feminine look.
Flounced maxi skirt
The flounced maxi skirt is composed of overlapping layers of fabric. What makes it so special are the colours, often vibrant, as well as the floral motifs that return in the pattern. The ruffles, on the other hand, add volume and movement, making this garment adaptable to different styles, from boho chic to the most elegant.

Pleated maxi skirt
The pleated maxi skirt is actually neater and more minimalist. The pleats, often made of lightweight fabrics such as cotton or silk, give a delicate movement to the look with a romantic allure. For a formal chic outfit, you could wear it with a pair of ballet flats.
Tulle maxi skirt
The tulle maxi skirt is a long, fluffy garment usually made with overlapping layers of tulle, a lightweight, transparent and slightly stiff fabric. Because of this structure, the skirt creates an effect between romantic and dreamy. The tulle moves gracefully with each step, floating slightly in the air and giving the silhouette a certain lightness. The colours tend to be delicate, such as pastel pink, white or light blue.

Denim maxi skirt
After jackets, jeans and mini dresses, the denim maxi skirt is a must-have for spring. Especially if it is cut into a circle or gathered at the waist, it creates a more pronounced architectural movement than that created by tulle, yet still very cool. The denim maxi skirt is chic and feisty at the same time.
