As we get closer to summer, the fashion scene is getting ready to upgrade its wardrobe in terms of color, material, and style. Here’s a glimpse of the key trends set to dominate the 2025 summer season!
First, let’s go over what you will see in terms of color. This summer is all about bold, bright colors. Deep blues, vibrant oranges, and sunshine yellows are the predicted colors we’ll see in many different styles. These bright colors create a great contrast against neutral tones, creating an eye-catching outfit.
While neon shades are making a comeback, pastel shades are being incorporated to soften a look and add a touch of subtleness. Lavender, ballet pink, and mint green are the colors that will be perfect to balance the more intense hues. These accents will be perfect for both casual and formal looks.
Patterns will also be a popular staple of this summer. Vibrant designs like florals, shapes, and animal prints will be huge, especially in fun tops and long skirts. Tropical prints like leaves and flowers will be everywhere, especially in beachwear. Bold geometric patterns will create fun retro-type prints. Animal print, including cheetah and zebra print, will make a creative, wild outfit.
There will be a trend in popular fabrics that are going to be all summer long. This summer is all about silk and sheer. Silk dresses and shirts will be all the rage, as will sheer, knit, crochet, and breathable linen outfits. The silk material will bring elegance, while the knit outfits will bring the bohemian flair back this season.
Lightweight and breathable materials like linen will continue to be a fan favorite for daytime. The airy-ness mixed with the ability to keep you cool makes this material perfect for summer. A staple piece that is a must for your wardrobe is white, breathable linen pants. Whether they’re paired with an oversized sweatshirt, tank top, or bathing suit, they’re perfect for summer.
Oversized sweaters and low-rise pants have not left and will be appearing this summer. These two pieces are great for lazy outfits to lounge in. Even when it’s warm out, the oversized sweatshirts will still be a hit, especially in the evenings. Low-rise pants, including jeans, will continue to serve looks while staying comfortable. Additionally, comfort-based aesthetic will continue to grow all summer long, offering a good contrast between style and comfort.
Not only are long skirts making a comeback, but butterfly skirts are too. These fun, whimsical skirts have a tighter waist with flared hems. These will be perfect for sunny days and can be paired with a neutral colored top or with a top with one of the fun patterns I mentioned before. This skirt will offer a playful twist on silhouette outfits, giving you light, fun feelings that match the energy of summer.
The trend this year is “siren season.”. This is basically wearing vacation outfits as everyday outfits. To have a “siren” look, think flowy sundresses, beachy vibes, lightweight fabrics, and see-through materials. These pieces are designed for the appeal of a beach vacation with everyday practicality. These outfits will include sandals, sun hats, and knitted bags.
Lastly, stacking and layering is sticking around when it comes to accessories. In fact, the clunkier, the better. It’s all about chunky necklaces, oversized sunglasses, layered bracelets, and stacked rings. These bold accessories will add a sense of fun and help personalize every outfit you wear. Not only will the accessories complete your look, but they’ll be a statement on their own. Hats and belts will also be fun accessories you will see styled more this season.
Whether you opt for the bold pieces with bright colors, different patterns, and sheer material, or the subtle look with light colors, solid patterns, and soft materials, this summer is all about expressing your style and yourself. With this knowledge, step into the season with confidence, knowing that 2025 summer fashion is all about expressing you!
