A tulle skirt can bring softness, movement and interest to an outfit in a way few other pieces can.

Think crisp shirts, simple knitwear, clean trainers and softly structured blazers.

At Eleven Loves, our tulle skirt collection is designed to make that versatility feel easy. Crafted in beautifully soft, 100% recycled tulle with a fluid drape, our skirts combine comfort with just the right amount of drama. In this guide, we share some of our favourite ways to wear a tulle skirt, from everyday outfit ideas to more polished looks for events and special occasions.

What to Wear with a Tulle Skirt? 

Whether you’re channelling a casual look or dressing for a special occasion, the classic black tulle skirt or navy tulle skirt can effortlessly elevate your outfit. Go smart and structured with the clean lines of our Bettine Blazers, or opt for a prettier take with the Taylor Tulle Sleeve Top.  Heels and a simple metallic clutch finish the look to perfection.  

Tulle skirts aren’t just for occasion wear.  Offering comfort an wow, they make the perfect statement look for everyday too.  From a simple sustainable cotton sweatshirt or t-shirt with trainers to the a crisp cotton shirt, there are endless opportunities to take your tulle skirt into your daily style.   

What Top to Wear with a Tulle Skirt? 

One of the easiest ways to style a tulle skirt is to think in contrasts. The softness and movement of the skirt pairs beautifully with pieces that feel simpler, cleaner or a little more relaxed.

For everyday wear, our Perfect Boyfriend T Shirt is an easy starting point, bringing a laid-back feel that keeps the look modern and balanced. In cooler weather, our Cashmere Blend Jumpers work beautifully with the lightness of the tulle, adding softness, warmth and a more polished finish.

In warmer months, the Maya Rib Vest keeps the top half sleek and understated, while our Perfect Shirt offers a crisper, more tailored contrast. For a look with more structure, add the Josephine Blazer to bring definition and polish. Each creates a slightly different feel, which is part of what makes a tulle skirt so versatile.

What Shoes to Wear with a Tulle Skirt?

Shoes make a big difference to the overall feel of a tulle skirt outfit.

For a more relaxed daytime look, trainers help keep the outfit grounded and modern. With a T Shirt, sweatshirt or lighter knit, they bring an easy feel that works beautifully for everyday wear.

For cooler months, ankle boots are a natural partner. Chunkier boots work well with oversized knitwear, while a more refined heeled ankle boot pairs beautifully with finer knitwear or a blazer.

For occasions, simple heels are often the best finishing touch. They keep the look elegant without competing with the softness of the skirt.

How to Style a Tulle Skirt? 

Now that you have endless ideas of tops to wear with tulle skirts, it’s time to think about accessories.  Again, simplicity is key.  It’s also worth considering how your shoes with work with your top to pull your look together.  To wear your tulle skirt for a formal occasion, opt for simple heels and a clutch and keep jewellery light and delicate.  With a t-shirt or sweatshirt, choose trainers in a complimentary colour to create a “sandwich effect” - white trainers work best with a lighter toned t-shirt or sweatshirt.  If you’re styling your tulle skirt with a chunky knit, then equally chunky boots keep your look intentional and put together.  With a finer knit, like our Iggy Sheer Rib Jumper consider heeled pointed ankle boots for a more refined everyday look.
