Bubble Skirts: Fun, Flattering and Feminine

Back in the 1980’s, bubble skirts were popular through drop waist and puffed hemlines featured on runways by designers like Yves Saint Laurent and worn by many popular figures such as Princess Diana.

This trend made a comeback later, in the 2010’s and was worn along with belted jackets and bandage dresses by Kim Kardashian, Ariana Grande and others.

Since the fashion industry, nowadays, digs up the fashion archives, bubbly skirts are back in as designers have been fully backing up this trend in their shows on the runways with a much more elevated approach. In fact, these designers decided to push the puffiness out of the picture, going for less inflated cuts. Featured on both mini and maxi skirts, giving a playful, youthful effect; this trend was recycled lately by designers like Antonio Marras, Allina Liu, and Ulla Johnson.
