If you’re tired of the same old clothes and looking to spiff things up for the summer, you should take a look at the new fashion trends this year. There are lots of cool new styles that will inspire you and help you stand out from the crowd.
Let’s take a closer look at what summer 2024 has to offer. Not all of these styles will be for everyone, but you may just find something that piques your interest.
Athleisure
We know; this is not a new concept. But what is new is that it’s becoming not only acceptable but standard for people to sport their spandex everywhere they go. So you should not only feel confident going out for coffee geared up after yoga class; you should feel free to sport these outfits out at dinner (maybe not 5-star restaurants, but many others…), when you go shopping, and many other parts of life. And this trend is not just limited to the US; as fitness is becoming a big thing worldwide, you’ll see people rocking their spandex all over the place.
So what are the trends in particular? In addition to the classic spandex warm-ups, tennis skirts are making a comeback (and not only for tennis!). Designers are also moving away from standard jog bras in favor of ¾ length ones. Girls can now show a bit of their midriffs without giving people the full picture. If you really want to have your own style, you can have a t shirt mockup made with your own personal logo on it. How’s that for creative?
Boho
That’s right; Boho is making a comeback. Are you a hippie at heart? Even if you’re not, there are ways to combine the patterns of yore with chic new cuts and create something that is both mod and bohemian at the same time. Do you have an ethnic bent? Ever seen a sari that you admired but weren’t sure you could pull off? Designers know this problem well and therefore have created styles that will give you a bit of that funky edge without making you into a full-scale anarchist.
Check out some of the things on the market this summer. Perhaps a pair of elevated denim jeans would give you just the right amount of funk to stand out from the crowd. Or maybe a shirt with a bit of delicate lace would do the trick. Do you like leather? There are some warm-weather leather jackets out there that could make a real statement if you combine them with the right outfit. Poke around online and see what you can find.
Little white dresses
We know, this idea scares the bejeezus out of a lot of people. But the right little white dress at the right summer event will make you an object of envy. There’s much more than just the standard English derby-attending style going around. If you’re feeling sassy, you can go for strapless. Or if you’re headed out for high tea, there are several more conservative options on the market, too.
Basically, whatever your priority is, you can find it this summer. And if you don’t think you have the right build to pull off white, there are tons of different cuts out there. Designers know that women come in different shapes and sizes, and the range of styles reflect this. So get ready for that fabulous summer event and grab that LWD that’s calling your name.
Whatever your preference, rock it
No matter what your personal style is, you can find a way to rock it this summer. Check out what’s available and think about what will work for you. Remember: it’s summer, so everyone is going to go a bit bold. This doesn’t necessarily mean you should wear your bikini when you go out to dinner (although on some beaches you might…), but don’t be afraid to take advantage of the warm weather and experiment a bit.
Pretty soon, winter will be back, and we’ll all find ourselves falling back into our old habits. Take the time to try something new while the spirit is high. It might just lead you in a whole new direction.
