Our women's pencil skirts are cool, contemporary and having a major comeback. They're also more versatile than the 1950s versions you might think of, taking you far beyond the workwear. Explore roomy and relaxed denim midi pencil skirts for women, embellished with cut-outs and frayed detailing for added attitude. Meanwhile, split-hem and wrap styles – as well as stretchy long tube skirts – won't restrict you on the dancefloor. Of course, its heritage means this iconic skirt is still workplace-appropriate. And for that we have block colours, regal tweeds and faux leather, occupying that sweet spot between chic and sexy. Follow the lines with a form-fitting top, or balance proportions with a looser blouse or shirt – tucked in, naturally. Want true vintage-inspired appeal? Try a cropped knit and timeless court shoe.
