Every woman knows that skirts and dresses are an invaluable piece of her travel wardrobe. Offering versatility and style, skirts and dresses are the heroes of travel clothes. Dresses can quickly be thrown on for instant style as you head out the door (no matching required) while skirts can easily be mixed and matched with a variety of tops for different looks. What they have in common is that they both offer that elusive blend of comfort, practicality, and style. Whether you’re off on a weekend escape down the coast or an overseas adventure, be sure to pack these best travel skirts and dresses in your suitcase.

Maxi Skirts for Travel

Nothing says “holiday vibes” quite like a maxi skirt. Long, flowy, and fabulous, a maxi skirt can easily be slipped on over a swimsuit for days by the pool or dressed up with wedges and a camisole for dinner. For an on-trend take on the look, opt for a pleated design or a tiered panel style. Flattering and statement-making, these skirts are best worn with an understated top, such as a white tank or tee. For even more impact, choose a bold colour or a beautifully printed design.

Denim Skirts for Travel

We all love our favourite pair of jeans for their cool, relaxed look. But, when you’re on holiday (particularly in warmer climates), jeans just won’t do. A little too hot and restrictive, and not to mention taking up extra room in your suitcase, jeans aren’t always a packing essential. So, if you’re headed somewhere warm, why not reach for a denim skirt instead? Offering the same effortlessly cool look while also being climate-appropriate, a denim skirt is a must for your suitcase. In particular, we love the Kiama Skirt from Foxwood. This fabulous denim skirt is crafted from soft, super-stretchy denim and features a flattering look that can easily be dressed up or down.

If you’re travelling somewhere warm or coastal, a beach dress is a non-negotiable suitcase item. After all, who can be bothered struggling with pants and tops over bathers? An easy, relaxed dress that can be quickly and comfortably be thrown on is the ideal solution. While there are many different types of beach dresses available, we recommend one crafted from soft and breathable cotton for maximum comfort. The Rainbow Beach Dress makes an excellent option.

Short, extended sleeves, handy pockets, and a subtle hi-low hem with side splits complete this travel essential.

Travel Dresses with Pockets

Like a skirt with pockets, a dress with pockets is also a fabulous item to have in your suitcase. Seriously convenient, this style allows you to move through your day without needing to tote a bag with you. Whether you’re off to the pool or down the main strip from some coffee, a dress with pockets will have you feeling free and fabulous. Just make sure you don’t try to stash too much in your pockets or they’ll end up looking bulky. Instead, embrace the less is more approach and only carry your absolute necessities.

Versatility is key when packing for a holiday and pieces that can be dressed up or down are a must. Not only will they save you room in your suitcase, but they’ll also allow you to transition from day to night with ease. Enter the shirt dress. A lesson in laidback chic, the shirt dress is an often overlooked travel essential for women. To nail the look, choose a version that’s relaxed and easy to throw on in a pinch. Wear it with sandals and a hat during the day or wedges and jewellery for the night.

Like a dress, it offers an easy all-in-one approach that requires little styling and will save space in your suitcase. The key to choosing the perfect travel jumpsuit is to pick one that’s both comfortable and stylish. Doing so will help ensure you can dress it up or down depending on your needs.
