Trend of the Week: skater girl

Get in line for this season’s ice cool trend, says Annmarie O’Connor.

INSPIRATION

Swishy skater skirts are surprisingly hot property these chilly winter days. Models at Temperley, Proenza Schouler and DKNY were seen gliding down the runway like ice princesses with gorgeous gams worthy of a triple axel. Get ready to do season-appropriate sexy!

STYLE NOTES

Balance out a skater skirt with an oversized knit. Pair with heeled ankle boots and textured tights for snug style snaps.

Not an ear muffs fan? Why not opt for a knitted beanie hat for cool girl kudos?

Top catwalk tip? Make like the DKNY models in head-to-toe black, paring a leather skater skirt with a fitted polo and furry gilet.

If the thought of an abbreviated hem leaves you cold, opt for a pair of cosy cable knit leggings.
