For many people, including fashion professionals, the difference between maxi and midi length can be confusing. An easy way to tell them apart is to remember that maxi length reaches the ankles, and midi is everything above the ankles to the thighs. Consumers typically think maxi length is a more traditional, conservative style choice, while midi length can be a more modern, sensual alternative. Some consumers prefer the mini length style, the shortest style available with the hem reaching mid to upper thigh. The three styles are nearly equal in popularity, with most consumers choosing to rock all three in their wardrobe.
Different styles tend to go in and out of popularity with the seasons as the weather requires more or less coverage. With winter coming, people are looking for more coverage, preferring the midi and maxi lengths. Free People have a black pleated midi skirt made from vegan leather that’s perfect for the colder seasons. The midi skirt is a neutral base that can be styled in infinite ways to fit nearly anyone’s style.
The unique fit and flair of the skirt gives it a more dramatic, edgy aesthetic that makes it a bold statement piece. People who like more versatile clothing and darker style options will love the black pleated midi skirts. In the duology Six of Crows, a young woman named Inej uses the shadows to hide from her enemies and the world around her. She often wears dark clothing to better blend into the shadows. Many people like to wear dark clothing to avoid standing out, and with the black midi skirt you can hide or stand out in style. Inej also has a more conservative style, which makes her more likely to prefer midi and maxi styles. For shorter people like Inej, midi length styles can also help lengthen their silhouette.


The Six of Crows duology, written by Leigh Bardugo, follows the Grishaverse and continues the story of Bardugo’s Shadow and Bone series. The story follows a group of misfits and criminals struggling to survive impossible circumstances. As the group slowly learns to trust one another, the world around them collapses, with many pointing fingers at them. They’ll have to work together and trust each other to survive the war in the streets.
Fans of the trilogy Shadow and Bone, by Leigh Bardugo will love the continuation of the Grishaverse in Six of Crows. Readers can buy the duology in bookstores and online. Fans of Free People’s black vegan midi skirt can buy it in stores and online. Cider offers a more affordable style option in their store online.
