The Bubble Skirt Revival Is in Full Swing


Bubble hems are back. Previously a hallmark of ’80s exuberance, and then early-2000s kitsch, the ample silhouette has been making its way back into the mainstream, thanks to runway revivals and buzzy designer collections. According to Google Trends, search interest in both “bubble skirts” and “bubble dresses” has ballooned in 2025, signaling a full-fledged revival.

Today’s iterations are equal parts playful and structured, encompassing a range of aesthetics and lengths, from mini to maxi. Even “bubble shorts” are on the rise — proof that the bubbly silhouette is expanding across categories (and that skorts are never a bad idea).

Not sure how to style the shape? Puffed hems paired with cowboy boots or kitten heels are sure to be popular looks this season. Go full ballet-core with dainty flats, choose a longer silhouette for evening, or add a cardigan and tights for a more conservative vibe. You can embrace the bubbly look in a multitude of ways, so shop our favorites below.
