Skirts

Women's skirts for work

A skirt that fits well earns its place in the working week. The Forcast skirt range runs from tailored pencil and column shapes for the office to bias-cut satin, wrap and flared styles for dinners and days off. Whether you want a mini, a midi or a floor-length maxi, these are skirts for women who dress for work and want the same pieces to carry them into the evening.

Choosing a length and shape

Pencil and column skirts, like the Kaitlyn Crepe Column Skirt, sit close to the body and read as the most formal option. A-line and faux wrap skirts skim rather than cling, so they move easily between desk and dinner, while bias satin skirts fall softly and suit an evening out. Short skirts pair well with tights and boots in winter, midi skirts are the all-rounder, and maxi skirts give a long, uninterrupted line.

What to wear with a skirt

A tailored blazer and a heel make a pencil skirt boardroom-ready. Swap the blazer for a fine knit or a tucked shirt and the same skirt works for a client lunch. For weekends, a satin or wrap skirt with a camisole and low mules is relaxed without being casual. Belts, sheer tights and a structured bag change the mood without changing the skirt.

Fabric and fit

Suiting blends with a little stretch and ponte hold their shape through long days at a desk. Crepe drapes cleanly, satin gives movement and shine, and faux leather adds texture to a simple shape. Think about where the waistband sits as much as where the hem falls, since that decides how a top tucks and how the skirt sits when you are seated.
