Shop the look: Bare legs

Of course not. It does depend on the fabric. A light fabric moves fluidly and gives your silhouette a playful, airy look. Perfect for summer. For a casual look, pair it with a sporty sneaker (Sneakers - Ralet), no socks. Prefer something dressier? Finish it off with a heel (Heels and pumps - Ralet) or a nice loafer (Loafers - Ralet).

A long or midi skirt in a heavier fabric, like wool, moves a little less but often has plenty of stretch. It falls beautifully straight and does your silhouette justice. Pair it with a tough mid-height ankle boot (Booties - Ralet) or knee-high boots (Boots - Ralet) with a slim heel. But loafers with a chic detail or an eye-catching sock work perfectly too.

Why not? Thick tights, woolly socks and a warm knit work wonders. Pair it with knee-high boots (Boots - Ralet) , ankle boots (Booties - Ralet) or even a mule (Mules - Ralet) with faux fur, and your short skirt is completely winter-proof. The skirt stays, the styling changes.

A few smart swaps go a long way. Layer a knit over your blouse, add a blazer or coat and finish with a scarf. Go for a pair of (heeled) boots (Heeled boots - Ralet): they visually lengthen your legs and keep them nice and warm. It looks even better when your culottes fall over your knee-high boots.

More than you think. The short skirt was off the radar for a while, but it's now making a strong comeback. The preppy college look put it back on the map, but the story doesn't end there. With sneakers and a sweater it's casual and cool; with a blazer and loafers (Loafers - Ralet) a little dressier. And with a heel (Heels and pumps - Ralet), a tough boot (Booties - Ralet) or a statement shoe, it instantly gets a whole different vibe. The short skirt is back. How you wear it is up to you.

Actually, both. Culottes regularly resurface in fashion, but the design itself is surprisingly timeless. The wide, cropped legs give you the freedom of movement of trousers, while the volume and length almost create the silhouette of a skirt. That means you can style them in a very contemporary or a classic way.

The trick lies mainly in the styling and proportions. With sneakers (Sneakers - Ralet) and a T-shirt they feel relaxed and modern; with a blazer and loafers (Loafers - Ralet) they look more sophisticated. And with knee-high boots and a chunky knit, you take them straight into autumn.

A trend in attitude, a classic in design.

Fur mules (Mules - Ralet) and boat shoes (Lace-up shoes - Ralet)! Especially paired with a statement sock. We saw them everywhere at Copenhagen Fashion Week, and this season you'll spot them on the street and on Instagram too. Wear them with a skirt or shorts and play with the contrast between feminine, sporty and a little bit rebellious.
