The professional pencil skirt partied its way down the runway this season. From funky fabrics to peculiar patterns, pencil skirts were reinvented this season. Let’s take a look at the best pencil skirts from Spring 2018 Ready-to-Wear.

Denim

Denim takes this trend from work to play. Rachel Antonoff’s white skirt could still be utilized as a professional garment, while Tomas Maier’s short style is strictly for fun. Coach 1941’s quaint take on this style is perfect for partying all night and looking unfazed in the morning.

Leather

Leather sharpens the pencil skirt, making it ideal for going out. Camilla and Marc and Off White stick with a simple slit, while Fendi merges several pieces of leather for a longer look. Isabel Marant utilized ruching for a shorter skirt, and J Brand settled on smooth look that adds sophistication to this style.
