Pencil Skirt

The pencil skirt has quietly become one of the season’s strongest corrective pieces. Harper’s Bazaar traced its current evolution through Tory Burch, Boss, and Chanel, where lower rises and easier styling made it feel less corporate, while ELLE linked the runway appetite for beige pencil skirts at Gucci and Marc Jacobs to the wider Carolyn Bessette Kennedy revival. The best version is hip-sitting, lean, and styled with something deliberately off: an oversized shirt, a soft cardigan, a chunky boot, or a sharp kitten heel.
