Skirts & Dresses
A pencil skirt is a slim, straight-cut skirt that hugs the hips and waist and tapers gently to a hem at or just below the knee. Its close, tailored silhouette makes it a classic for office and business wear, usually with a back vent or slit to allow walking.
The fitted shape relies on darts and structured fabric to follow the body cleanly. A small kick pleat or slit at the back keeps the narrow hem from restricting your stride.
It's the most tailored skirt shape, the opposite of a flowing A-line or circle skirt, and a cornerstone of business casual and old money workwear.
