Get on board with 11 standout versions.

Like so many jean pieces from jorts to wide-leg jeans, the long denim skirt has nearly endless subcategories. All the better to get in on a look without sacrificing your particular style DNA.
In other words, there’s a jean maxi skirt for everyone. A bit on the boho side? Go all in on a Ganni fit-and-flare take. More minimal? Keep it sleek with raw fitted denim. A bit edgy and looking for something to pair with your new moto jacket? Make it black and lightly distressed. Or take a note from Khaite’s fall runway if you’re drawn to a tailored vibe and style yours belted with an oversized blazer.
The best part? All these long denim skirts pair magically with a white tee and your go-to shoes, whether they’re boots or New Balances. That’s the thing with a not-so-basic basic: It actually makes getting dressed more simple.

3×1
This mid-wash maxi is so cool. We love the idea of styling it with a simple bodysuit and great brown belt with slides.
| 7 | The New Wave
A bit ’80s with a stone-wash vibe, this modern take is made for a great heel.
| 8 | The High-Rise
| 9 | The Boho Skirt
A little bit Western, a little bit boho, this skirt is a statement ready to be made.
| 10 | The Light Wash
This lighter wash may feel summery, but it’s perfectly suited to black cashmere sweaters and lug-sole boots.
| 11 | The White Skirt
Is there anything chicer than a cream cable-knit sweater paired with this skirt and suede boots? It’s okay, we’ll wait.
