The last time I wore a midi skirt was probably the summer after I started middle school. You could’ve called me Lizzie McGuire then, because I was a shameless outfit repeater. I wore one teal tiered peasant skirt just about everywhere. Now that I can look back at my middle school days fondly (instead of cringing), I’ll be the first to admit that despite my many fashion misses, that skirt was probably the best addition to my wardrobe at the time.

So when I began seeing long, white breezy skirts everywhere last summer — and was reminded of the merits of owning pieces that are easy to throw on in hot weather — I started looking for the perfect white skirt. After trying on dozens of skirts over the span of a year that were too long, too thin, or too sheer, I finally found the Lowen Midi Skirt ($60) at Free People — and it’s so good I’ve been outfit repeating (again) this summer.

What I Like About the Free People Lowen Midi Skirt

What I love about the Lowen Midi Skirt is how effortlessly chic it is. In my opinion, a classic A-line silhouette is timeless. I also like that this billowy skirt is made of 100 percent cotton, which means it’s lightweight and comfortable for warm weather. And despite being airy and light, the skirt doesn’t feel thin, thanks to a poplin fabric that gives it a bit more structure. Another bonus? The skirt has pockets! Those were not expected, but of course greatly appreciated.

Another thing I look for in my summer staples is versatility, and I’m happy to report that I’ve already worn this skirt to a summer soirée, the airport, and lunch with friend; it’s safe to say that this skirt has earned its place in my wardrobe for the summer and beyond. I’ve paired the ivory skirt with some ballet flats and elevated accessories for a fancier feel and dressed it down by throwing on a T-shirt and sneakers, too.

What to Know Before Buying the Free People Lowen Midi Skirt

I loved the fit and fabric of the skirt, but will admit that the skirt is still on the sheer side. I could get away with wearing skin-toned underwear or shorts underneath, but some might feel more comfortable with a slip.

The brand also notes that this particular style runs big, so you can size down for a more fitted look. I sized down and thought it fit just right — the elastic waistband cinched in my waist. The skirt length was accurate, but I will note that I’m just under 5’7″, so it may fit more like a maxi skirt than a midi skirt if you’re shorter than me.

Who the Free People Lowen Midi Skirt Is Best For

Free People’s Lowen Midi Skirt is perfect for anyone who is looking for a simple but chic addition to their wardrobe. The cotton material is flowy and comfortable, especially on hot days, which makes it a great piece for spring and summer.
