Every summer brings its share of new ideas, and this season is all about bold choices, flowing lines and plenty of style. Here are the pieces, colours and accessories to look out for.
Long, flowing, romantic dresses take centre stage
There is no escaping long, flowing dresses, which are everywhere on the catwalks and in the streets. In cotton voile, linen or chiffon, they come in natural tones, soft-focus florals and sunny pastels. These dresses are designed to move with the breeze, show off the shoulders and lengthen the silhouette.
It is the ideal piece for facing the heat while staying elegant. Sleeved or sleeveless, fitted or loose, it becomes the new uniform for town or seaside, depending on the accessories you choose.
Crochet and open knits make a confident comeback
Crochet is no longer reserved for festivals and beachwear. It has become a sought-after, on-trend material, thanks to updated cuts. Cropped tops, wide-leg trousers, midi skirts, bags and even swimwear: open knits are everywhere, as long as they are well styled.
Designers have revisited this handcraft technique to bring it into everyday looks that are urban and bohemian at once. Pair a crochet top with fluid tailored trousers for a guaranteed relaxed-chic effect.
The colours to wear freely
- Bright tangerine: punchy and joyful, it instantly livens up an outfit
- Glacier blue: fresh and calming, perfect for summer evenings
- Sage green: discreet yet very modern, and easy to pair
- Powder pink: soft and romantic, it is making a strong return on accessories
- Off-white: the neutral base of summer, which goes with everything
Oversized accessories take over
- XXL sunglasses: geometric or retro shapes that dominate the face with style
- Raffia tote bags: large, soft and perfect for the beach and the city alike
- Sculptural earrings: golden, twisted or asymmetric, they frame the face in an instant
- Wide belts: to cinch the waist of a flowing dress or a jumpsuit
Sport-chic keeps winning hearts
This summer confirms a trend that has been building for several seasons: the marriage of comfort and elegance. Technical fabrics and sport-inspired cuts are finding their way into more refined looks. Think cycling shorts worn with oversized shirts, or windbreakers paired with flat leather sandals.
This contrast creates a resolutely modern style, ideal for anyone who wants to move freely without sacrificing their look.
Arty prints spread across the silhouette
Make way for creativity! This season, prints inspired by abstract art and street art colour the statement pieces: midi skirts, light jackets, fluid trousers. Expect irregular geometric shapes, digital brushstrokes and unexpected colour combinations.
These patterns let you express your personality while stepping off the beaten track. Perfect for livening up a wardrobe that has become a little too sensible, they show that fashion can also be a space for artistic expression.
This summer, the trends are all about authenticity, comfort and individuality. Airy cuts, natural fabrics, vibrant or soothing shades: everything is designed to flatter without constraining. All that is left is to choose your key pieces and put together a style that is truly yours.
