16 Short & Sweet Micro Mini SkirtsShort-short summer, meet short-skirt fall. Ever since lockdown commenced, removing the need for our once-frequented sweatsuit collection, fashion has taken a turn for the skimpier, with tiny bikinis, naked dresses, and pin tops all factoring into heavy rotation. And understandably so. After being cooped up inside, where we wrapped ourselves in layers of protective jersey, our skin needs to breathe. That’s where fall’s latest (and most scant) trend comes in: the micro mini skirt

Densely featured in Saint Laurent and Miu Miu’s fall ‘21 shows, the micro mini skirt trend is the latest in an overall sartorial shrinking that’s already made its way through fashion’s dresses, tops, and shorts. The style appeared again in Maryam Nassir Zadeh’s resort ‘22 collection, paired with unnecessary belts and layered tank tops à la Disney stars on the red carpet circa 2003, as well as on the e-commerce sites of some of Gen Z’s favorite brands, from Tankair (seen on Olivia Rodrigo and Emma Chamberlain) to 1XBLUE (worn by Willow Smith and Paloma Elsesser). By the time the Y2K silhouette made its way onto Bella Hadid and Dua Lipa’s Instagram feeds, we knew the micro mini was here to stay.
