Your Favorite Skirts & Dresses of 2024!
Skirt: Grace Karin, XS-XXL / Earrings: Pavoi / Scarf: Amazon
The mainstream fashion media loves telling you how to dress.
These "fashion experts" push products with high price tags, flashy logos, and most of the time... low standards of self-respect.
But here at The Style Underground, the real fashion expert is you.
Everything on this site is about you. It's about what you want to wear as a classy woman. How you want to present yourself to the world.
And most importantly, which pieces fit you and your meaningful, fulfilling life.
I've compiled a list of your most-shopped modest skirts and dresses. Keep reading for photos and short demo videos.
Let's jump in!
Part 1: Skirts
1. Your favorite dressy skirt
Tulle skirt: Amazon, XS-3X / Scarf: Vera Bradley
Today's modest gal appreciates a dressy skirt with a comfortable stretch waistband. (Perhaps because so many formal events involve a cocktail hour, if not a full-blown feast?)
While this skirt was most popular in lighter colors, it also comes in a dramatic black.

2. Your favorite denim skirt
Skirt: Esteez, 0-18 / Hat: Betmar, similar here with 23" circumference / Tote: Land's End
We American gals love some casual, quality denim. (Discover why everyone else envies us here).
The most popular denim skirt this year was the 'Brooklyn' stretch pencil skirt, in both dark blue and black.
3. Your favorite jewel-tone skirt
Skirt: Grace Karin, XS-XXL / Scarf: Amazon
This reader favorite is another winning combo of dressy-casual fabric and stretch waistband. The deep green colorways hit the spot.
4. Your favorite cotton skirt
Cotton underskirt: Beautelicate, S-XXL / Blue dress: The Drop, XS-5X / Brown tiered dress: The Drop, XS-5X
While this isn't technically a skirt, it was certainly a best seller. Wear this cotton underskirt as a hemline extender, a layering piece, or as a regular skirt over a nylon half slip.
With so many roles to play, it's practically one of you.
Part 2: Dresses!
1. Your favorite wrap dress
Dress: Quince, XS-XL here, 1X-3X here / Reversible beret: Amazon / Sunglasses: Foster Grant / Heels: Calvin Klein
The first of your favorite dresses has a sumptuous feel and flattering cut. It's made of a substantial tencel ponte knit, with a fluid drape. Exquisite taste, indeed.
While it comes in handful of colors, the most popular was black.
2. Your favorite shirtdress
Dress: The Drop, XXS-5X / Navy scarf: Vera Bradley / Stretch belt: Grace Karin / Bag: Humble Chic
Hat: Time & Tru, similar here / Dress: The Drop, XXS-5X / Wide white belt: Amazon / Blue & white scarf: Melifluos
Of the many shirtdress contenders this year, this linen number is the champion. It was most popular in light shades, like white and hummus.
The combination of pale color and breathable fiber cool you in the heat.
3. Your favorite sweater dress
 Dress: Amazon, S-XL / Hat: Amazon / Leather bag: Quince / Shoes: Naturalizer, med & wide
The Style Underground readers are a classy group! This affordable Chanel-inspired frock, featured in this Coco Chanel article, was your most-shopped sweater dress.

4. Your favorite midaxi dress
Dress: Amazon, S-XL, 'apricot' / Hat: Steve Madden (sold out - purchased by many readers!) / Sunglasses: Amazon
Tiers are endlessly flattering. These tiers are micro-pleated, and machine washable. You snapped up this dress, and it's clear why.
5. And last, your fave 2-piece dress!
Tank: Amazon Essentials, XS-XXL / Skirt: Amazon Essentials, XS-XXL / Teal scarf: Amazon / Coatigan: Anrabess, XS-XXL / Sunglasses: Foster Grant / Black bag: Quince
This one-two punch of emerald separates was a huge hit!
While they're sold individually as a tank and pull-on skirt, together they create the effect of a dress.
You loved this tee and skirt combo so much, you launched the article "Emerald, Jade, Seafoam, oh my!" to the #1 spot, with many thousands of views!
