Spring/summer this year saw the increase in longer-length skirts, with ladylike midi styles dominating the runways and rapidly replacing mini skirts and dresses. However, the A/W collections proved this new skirt style was not just a phase, but has in fact evolved into a 1940s revival. The pencil skirt is a key feature in the trend, providing a feminine staple to the elegant look. But it was not only the pencil skirt that was popular; a dressed-up, unapologetically glamorous 1940s look was featured in a huge amount of A/W shows, with everyone from Marc Jacobs to Topshop Unique drawing inspiration from the decade.
