In the upcoming 2025 summer fashion season, expect to see iconic styles make a comeback, such as pastel colors, ‘70s boho, denim on denim, layered clothing and jewelry, and elevated athleisure. While optimizing comfort, the clothing of this season will be free, flowy, and effortlessly chic.
Pastel colors
Pastel colors are the new black! Expect to see butter yellow, soft pinks, and pistachio green in every article of fashion: cardigans, dresses, shoes, and bags. Not only are pastel colors calming and aesthetically pleasing, but they match any color denim and are easy to wear for an elegant yet put-together look.
’70s Boho
’70s Boho is back! Brands such as Isabelle Marant and Zimmerman are returning their classic styles from the 70’s runway shows. The boho style is a mix of fringes, ruffles, and eyelet details, all made of flowy materials. Boho typically incorporates earthy tones like cream, white, sage, yellow, and pale pink.
Denim on Denim
From the 1970s to the 1980s, the denim-on-denim look thrived and is being revived. Specifically, for the summer, light-washed denim skirts paired with jean jackets and a basic top for a windy day, while denim tops and skirts are perfect for a concert or a day walking the town.
Layering
Layering is the perfect way to elevate any outfit. Whether it’s layering a sheer blouse over a tank top or adding a lacy cardigan over a dress, layering helps add dimension and uniqueness to any outfit. Additionally, layer workout tank tops are also trending, adding a fun pop of color to a simple white tank top.
Elevated Athleisure
Whether it’s going to get a coffee or having a shopping day, elevated athleisure is a good look for any occasion. Monochromatic sets such as biker shorts or leggings and a tank, or a cute tennis skirt and a top are trending for the summer. The best part is that they’re also perfect for going to the gym or any form of exercise. Brands such as Alo, Lululemon, and Set Active are ideal for a comfortable yet put-together look and are extremely practical for a hot summer day. For more affordable options, dupes on Amazon are popular.
