Kaia Gerber Wore the 2023 Trend That's Perfect If You Hate Miniskirts

The recent resurgence of Y2K trends has no doubt made some of you nervous. Not everyone wants to revisit low-rise jeans, bolero sweaters, rhinestone jeans, and butterfly clips. I don't blame you! My personal fashion nemesis from the 2000s is the itty-bitty miniskirt—remember the ones that looked more like belts than skirts?
Thankfully, however, there is an equally popular alternative that's much more my vibe: full midi skirts, as Kaia Gerber just showed off. Photographed on a shopping excursion in Los Angeles, Gerber wore a cropped cardigan with an A-line skirt and sneakers. Scroll down to re-create the celeb-approved outfit that's perfect if you hate miniskirts.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern in 2011—back when the site only published a single story per day. (We have since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC and lives in Los Angeles. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News. From the Oscars to the Met Gala, she leads the site's entire red carpet coverage strategy. She specializes in celebrity and fashion news but also enjoys writing travel features and runway reports. She frequently contributes to WWW's social accounts and has a sizable following on her personal TikTok.
