Broderie Anglaise Midi Skirts Surge After Margot Robbie's Airport Look

The summer wardrobe is shifting from dresses to airy broderie anglaise midi skirts. The 19th‑century British embroidery technique, now applied to lightweight cotton and linen, is being promoted as a breathable, versatile alternative for warm days. Designers showcase the skirts in recent runway shows and retailers such as H&M offer affordable versions.

At the same time, actress Margot Robbie’s plain‑black airport outfit – a bermuda short, an oversized long‑sleeve top, mesh ballerinas by Alaïa, a black handbag and oversized sunglasses – has become one of the most replicated looks of the season on Pinterest and TikTok. Fashion writers note the minimalist “less is more” aesthetic, and suggest similar pieces from brands like Weekday and H&M for readers who want to emulate the style.
