The buyer's brief

How to choose

What we weigh before a designer skirt earns a place in this edit.

01

Directional or everyday

Miu Miu leans fashion-led short styles. Sandro and Michael Kors are the everyday options. Burberry is the luxury investment.

02

Length

The short pleated styles are the statement. Midi cuts are the wearable everyday choice for work and daytime.

03

Where to start

A midi in a plain fabric is the most versatile first buy. Add a directional short style once you have the everyday one.

04

Budget

Michael Kors sits at the accessible end. Sandro is contemporary, Miu Miu fashion-led, Burberry the luxury investment.

05

Sizing

Miu Miu and Sandro cut small and young. Size up if you are between sizes or want a relaxed fit.
