Frankie Shop Skirt Guide 2026: Every Silhouette Compared

A Frankie Shop skirt is a tailored, city-minded skirt from The Frankie Shop, the New York label known for oversized suiting. Coveti stocks more than 50 listings in its designer skirts edit, led by the new Maybelle Satin Bonded Pencil Skirt in Black at $500 and the Samantha Crackled Faux Leather Zip Skirt in Dark Navy at $530.

This guide is skirts only, sorted by silhouette: pencil, faux leather, mini, midi and maxi. For dresses and skirts together in one place, read our wider Frankie Shop dresses and skirts guide.

Why does a Frankie Shop skirt look the way it does?

Because the label started with tailoring, and its skirts are cut like the bottom half of a suit.

Gaelle Drevet, the founder from Lyon, opened the business as a multi-brand concept store. Press dates The Frankie Shop to 2014, with its Lower East Side doors opening in 2015 by the brand’s own account. FashionUnited (2022) names the oversized blazer, the tailored trouser and the oxford shirt as founding pieces, and the brand says it “became synonymous with smart, oversized suiting”.

That suiting habit runs through the skirt rail. Many skirts share a name with a blazer, and the long, straight line with a front slit sits under a big jacket without fighting it.

What is new in Frankie Shop skirts for 2026?

Three skirts landed on Coveti on 15 November 2026: one satin bonded pencil skirt and the Samantha zip skirt in two colours.

Maybelle Satin Bonded Pencil Skirt

The Maybelle is the label’s best-stocked skirt name on Coveti, and this is its dressiest version yet. The Maybelle Satin Bonded Pencil Skirt in Black is 100% polyester bonded satin, made in France, with a pencil silhouette at midi length. It costs $500 and runs XXS to XXL.

It has a matching jacket: the new Martella Satin Bonded Blazer in Black, also 100% polyester and made in France, at $720. Together they make a satin suit for $1,220. More matching sets live in our Frankie Shop suits guide.

Samantha Crackled Faux Leather Zip Skirt

The Samantha is faux leather, not leather. Both colours are 100% polyurethane, made in India, with a crackled surface and a pencil silhouette.

Choose the Samantha Crackled Faux Leather Zip Skirt in Dark Navy for a near-black that reads softer by daylight, and the Samantha Crackled Faux Leather Zip Skirt in Green for colour. Each is $530 in sizes XXS to XXL. Coveti lists the Green at midi length with a tailored cut and the Dark Navy with a regular cut. The same crackled finish comes on a small bag, the Morgan Crackled Faux Leather Small Pouch in Navy at $360.

Which Frankie Shop pencil skirts are on Coveti?

Twelve live listings sit in our pencil skirts category, plus the two new Samantha colours and the satin Maybelle.

The Maybelle family is the core. The Maybelle Wool Front Slit Pencil Skirt in Light Taupe Melange is $410, and the Maybelle Front Slit Pencil Skirt in Black is also $410. Both have the front slit that defines the shape, so a long pencil skirt still lets you take a full stride.

Under $450 there are three more options. The Lisle Front Slit Pencil Skirt in Pale Olive is $320, with a Navy version at $330. The Gema Pencil Skirt in Dark Grey Melange is $430 and reads like suiting cloth. The Viera Midi Skirt in Black and Khaki, $280 each, is filed under both pencil and midi, so it is the gentlest version of the shape.

At the top end, the Taney Crackled Pencil Skirt in Brown is $620, and the Samantha Patent Zip Skirt in Black is $540.

What is the difference between Frankie Shop leather and faux leather skirts?

Read the product name and then the composition line: on Coveti, the faux styles carry “Faux Leather” in the name, and the new Samantha is listed as 100% polyurethane.

Our leather skirts category holds ten live Frankie Shop listings across both groups. The faux leather side is the larger one for newcomers to the look:

• The Maybelle Faux Leather Front Slit Pencil Skirt in Sage, $680, the Maybelle shape in a pale green faux leather.
• The Mary Crackled Faux Leather Mini Skirt in Black, $440, the short sister to the Samantha.
• The Leona Croc Faux Leather Mini Skirt in Grey, $300, with a croc texture. It also comes in Black at $290.
• The two new Samantha colours, 100% polyurethane, $530 each.

The real leather skirts are the Maybelle Leather Front Slit Pencil Skirt in Bottle Green at $870, the Savil Leather Midi Skirt in Dark Brown at $800 (Black is $364) and the Nelaya Leather Macrame Skirt in Emerald and Black at $1,210, the most expensive skirt in the edit. The house lists the Maybelle and Savil as 100% lamb leather and the Nelaya as 100% cow leather. The Taney Crackled Pencil Skirt is polyurethane, so treat it as faux.

The Frankie Shop also makes faux leather jackets to wear with these skirts; see our Frankie Shop leather jackets guide. If you prefer the look above the knee in trouser form, our Frankie Shop leather shorts guide covers that too.

Does The Frankie Shop make mini skirts?

Yes. Eleven live mini skirt listings sit on Coveti, from $220 to $440.

The Hera is the most varied: the Hera Mini Skirt in Blue Multi Stripe and Green Multi Stripe at $330, the Hera Cotton Mini Skirt in Camel at $300 and the Hera Satin Mini Skirt in Brown at $340. The Arosa Belted Mini Skirt comes in Beige and Black at $350, the Narah Mini Skirt is a Navy and White pinstripe at $330, and the Liri Mini Skirt in Grey is the least expensive skirt in the edit at $220.

Which Frankie Shop midi skirts are worth a look?

Midi is the biggest group, with 22 live listings, and it splits into tailored and soft.

Tailored first. The Viviana Chevron Tailored Midi Skirt in Black is $410, with a Dark Navy version at the same price. The Elian Tailored Midi Skirt in Navy is $470, the Lowell Asymmetric Midi Skirt in Grey Melange is $500 and the Munich Contrast Piping Midi Skirt in Navy is $290.

Soft second. The Peri Sheer Midi Skirt in Pale Yellow is $340 and the Peri name runs through Desert Sand, Black, Brown and Red. The Lenore Semi Sheer Midi Skirt in Black is $310. For movement, the Provence Fluid A-Line Midi Skirt in Navy is $450, and the Bellona, Bayel and Manali are flared midis from $335 to $518.

Does The Frankie Shop sell maxi skirts?

Yes, five live listings, and the Elie is the one to know.

The Elie Silk Fluid Maxi Skirt in Ivory is $470, also in Navy and Olive at the same price, and sits in our satin and silk group. The Ella Maxi Skirt in Dark Plum is $310 and the Aeson Maxi Skirt in Pale Yellow is $320.

How do Frankie Shop skirts work around the world?

The same skirt changes job by climate, and the size chart converts cleanly between markets.

In the US, the brand’s two New York addresses, the SoHo flagship at 59 Crosby Street and 100 Stanton Street on the Lower East Side, sit in a city with a real winter, which is where the faux leather Samantha and Mary earn their keep. In the UK, the label has a corner inside Selfridges on Oxford Street, and a wool Maybelle with tights covers most of the year. In the EU, the Paris womenswear store at 7 rue Saint Claude and the Milan store on Via San Pietro All’Orto serve a dressier city calendar that suits the satin Maybelle and Martella pairing.

In the GCC, a long hemline and a light fabric matter more than warmth. The Elie Silk Fluid Maxi and the Peri Sheer Midi suit warm evenings, while bonded satin and polyurethane are better kept for air-conditioned interiors and the cooler months.

The brand’s chart maps XS, S, M, L and XL to US 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10, UK 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14, and EU 34, 36, 38, 40 and 42. The new skirts run XXS to XXL.

What size Frankie Shop skirt should you buy?

Start with your usual letter size. The Frankie Shop gives no general advice to size down, and its per-product fit line sometimes reads “Fit: True to size”.

A pencil skirt has less room for error than an oversized blazer, so measure your waist and hips and compare them with the size guide on each Coveti product page. Our Frankie Shop size guide explains the letter sizes in full, and Coveti’s team can help with a specific style. Coveti has its own returns policy, separate from the brand’s.
