Long Skirts Women

Long skirts for women are a practical and considered choice — a length that provides full coverage, layers well through the Dutch seasons and moves naturally whether you're crossing Amsterdam on foot or sitting through a long Utrecht working day. The Pepe Jeans London collection offers tiered maxi styles, wrap silhouettes and straight-cut long skirts in fabrics built to last.

Fabric and construction

Women's long skirts in this collection are made from lightweight viscose, cotton poplin and woven fabric blends chosen for drape and durability. The elasticated or gathered waistband fits without adjustment across sizes. Tiered construction gives the relaxed styles their volume and movement, while the straight-cut silhouette in woven styles keeps its line through repeated wear and washing. Pepe Jeans London has built garments with this everyday durability in mind since 1973.

Choosing the right long skirt for women

Long skirts for women in this range cover different functional needs. The tiered maxi skirt is the most relaxed — it moves freely and requires minimal styling effort, which is exactly the point. The straight-cut long skirt in a woven fabric gives a cleaner line for office or smarter Rotterdam occasions. The wrap long skirt, adjustable at the waist, is the most versatile of the three — it flatters a range of proportions and adapts between casual and dressed-up settings without demanding a full outfit change.

Women's long skirts: everyday looks that hold up

A tiered women's long skirt with a fitted top and flat shoes handles a long Amsterdam city centre day from morning through to an evening drink without repacking. For the office, a straight long skirt for women in a woven fabric with a tucked-in blouse and low heels is a clean, no-effort combination that works on a bicycle or in a boardroom. The wrap long skirt layers under a coat when the Rotterdam wind picks up — built to last, not to impress once.

Care and maintenance

Women's long skirts in viscose and lightweight wovens wash best on a cool, gentle cycle — heat affects the fibres and changes the drape over time. Hang to dry rather than tumble dry to preserve the full hemline length. A cool iron on the reverse side keeps the surface smooth without causing damage to finer weaves.

What length is a long skirt for women?

A long skirt for women falls to the ankle or close to the floor — distinctly longer than a midi skirt, which stops at mid-calf. In the Pepe Jeans London range, women's long skirts are cut to sit at an ankle-grazing point that provides full coverage while still allowing a natural walking stride.

Are long skirts for women practical for cycling in the Netherlands?

A straight-cut or wrap long skirt for women in a woven or slightly structured fabric is the most practical option for cycling — the cleaner the hemline, the less risk of fabric catching. Avoid very full tiered styles on a bicycle. A fitted underlayer adds comfort and security on longer routes. Many women's long skirts in this collection have enough structure to cycle comfortably when worn with a close-fitting base layer.

How do I style women's long skirts in Dutch autumn and winter?

Women's long skirts layer well in colder months with a fitted rollneck or cropped knit tucked in at the waist. Ankle boots or low-heeled boots underneath work naturally with the length without creating a heavy overall silhouette. A structured coat or longline jacket over the top completes the look for the longer, cooler days that define most of the Dutch calendar.
