The temperature is getting higher and the days are getting longer. Although it"s still a while until the first day of spring, it"s the perfect time to start completing your wardrobe for the new spring-summer season. What"s in store for us? From 90s minimalism to denim total looks to sequins and transparent fabrics. The fashion for the coming season is full of contrasts. On the one hand, it is nostalgic (coming back to past decades in fashion), while on the other, it encourages playfulness and experimentation. It refers to the past, but adds the freshness and diversity of the modern years. The designers have focused on functionality, minimalism and simplicity. Especially for you, we have done an in-depth research and prepared a summary of the most important trends in women"s fashion for spring and summer 2024.
Spring-summer 2024 trends: functionality and comfort at the forefront
The start of the season is the perfect time to review your wardrobe and be inspired by the trends that have appeared at the shows of top fashion houses and major brands. For the spring-summer 2024 season, designers have presented a whole range of fashion trends, so that every woman will find something for herself. Any surprises? The disco era and feathers, which weren’t popular in previous spring and summer seasons. But rest assured. There was plenty of base colours, summer pastels and floral prints. We have prepared a list of the most fashionable trends, which were also present in the new collections of the S’portofino brands.
Shorts in a... micro version and the return of the capri trousers
While shorts probably don"t come as a surprise to you this summer season, this time they are going to be really micro! Short shorts have appeared at the shows of Gucci, Prada (here short shorts have already appeared at the show for the autumn-winter 2022/23 season), Hermes or Stella McCartney, famous for its conservatism. In the coming season, we will be wearing really short shorts. This trend is loved by Kendall Jenner, who has already been seen in micro shorts more than once. We admit it"s quite a bold trend, but designers are encouraging us to pair them with oversize blazers, jumpers or cardigans to keep the styling balanced. If micro shorts are too much for you, you can always opt for classic length shorts by such brands as Aeronautica Militare or RLX Ralph Lauren. There is also an interesting comeback with the capri trousers. This trend is already being promoted by Kendall Jenner, who wears black capri leggings and an oversize blazer. It"s the kind of trend you either love or hate. What about you? Will you be tempted to wear capri leggings this new season?
Preppy look: polo shirts and tennis skirts.
The preppy look will take a slightly different turn this season. Inspired by the style of America"s elite, it is back this year in a very holiday-inspired form. Instead of school uniforms, designers are presenting styles that are perfect for tennis or just right for a yacht. There will be plenty of pleated skirts and nautical moccasins on the streets, polo shirts, a slightly more elegant version of the T-shirt, will be most popular, as seen at this year"s Miu Miu and Gucci shows. Use them for everyday wear, for work or to meet up with friends. Interesting polo shirts are offered by Polo Ralph Lauren or Chervo.
Minimalist forms and colours
The 2024 trends are sure to delight lovers of minimalism. Neutrality, simple forms and muted colours will be on the streets. There will also be the timeless combination of black and white, which also triumphed last season. For a moment, we will catch our breath from dopamine dressing in favour of softer, elegant shades. This season will definitely belong to monochrome ensembles, which are also present in the latest Bogner collection. You will find beige jackets, trousers and sweatshirts that will perfectly complement your spring outfits. If black is your colour of choice, check out the latest Allude capsule collection - a classic in black is sure to appeal and create a versatile wardrobe thanks to simple cuts, high-quality materials and the dominant colours of beige, black and blue.
The return of 90s minimalism.
After the expressive years in which Y2K style dominated, we are taking a deep breath and preparing for the return of 90s minimalism, which takes its inspiration from Carolyn Bessette Kennedy. Styles straight out of the 1990s are perfect for corporate corridors. The catwalks featured simple dresses, women"s suits and coats in masculine styles, fitted shirts and high-waisted trousers. In what colours? Muted, of course. The dominant colours will be white, grey and black combined in total looks.
All in white
White looks are one of the leading trends for spring-summer 2024 in fashion houses such as Acne and Chloe. Palazzo trousers, classic dresses, shirts, jackets - all items of clothing in this colour are allowed. You will find a lot of white in the offerings of Allude, Bogner or Varley. If you appreciate minimalism, elegance and freshness, white total looks are definitely the choice for you. They are a great choice for warm summer days. White shorts and a loose white shirt are a recipe for comfort and style when the heat is pouring down. Pair this look with soft sandals and big round sunglasses and you"ll exude summer energy without leaving the city.
Trendy colours: pasteLOVE
Alongside classic, muted colours, sweet pastels will be in fashion trends for spring and summer. We are moving slightly away from the dopamine dressing trend in favour of softer, subtler colours. Pastel shades of pink are unlikely to come as a surprise to anyone, but look out for peach shades, which will reign supreme this spring (Peach Fuzz was voted colour of the year by Pantone). An interesting shade of orange can be found in the latest collection by Deha. Sweatpants in this shade or a crepe jacket are ideal for everyday wear. Blue will also be the colour of the season, with appearances by Stella McCartney and Varley, among others. It"s a versatile colour that will stay with you for many seasons, so it"s worth investing in.
Floral motifs
Flowers are a permanent feature of spring trends and here there is no surprise. They will be seen above all on dresses and blouses in the coming season. Which flowers are in? At Alexander McQueen, the rose, but really all flowers are on top. You can use this motif for casual everyday looks, as well as for bigger outings such as weddings and garden parties. Flower motifs are never in short supply in collections from brands such as Camilla and Waimari.
Fashionable bags for spring: XXL version
Have you always been short of space in your handbag? Well, that"s about to change, as the era of the micro-bag is being consigned to oblivion. This season it-girls will be wearing XXL bags. Practicality is king! This season, bags are becoming our hand luggage. Fans of practical minimalism will be delighted by the simple, elegant lines and muted colours, while lovers of extravagance will find something for themselves in the wealth of patterns, embroideries and applications. This season, Vee Collective has opted for practical, versatile and extremely lightweight bags that you can use for everyday, for work, as well as for the gym or fitness classes.
Fashionable shoes for spring-summer 2024: platform shoes
Comfort and convenience will play first fiddle in the spring-summer season, which is why we are opting for footwear on a flat sole. Platform shoes are a hit for the spring-summer 2024 season and were the highlight at the Gucci show. Platform shoes are also on show at UGG. The brand"s collection is dominated by leather platform flip-flops, which are sure to be the perfect summer accessory. Alongside platform shoes, the immortal sneakers, which the major fashion houses never forget, will of course dominate everyday outfits. The Bogner Shoes collection features a wide range of sporty shoes. The dominant colours are beige and white.
Trends for spring-summer 2024 in women's fashion: a summary
The upcoming season is definitely a return to the roots. Old money and quiet luxury styling will dominate casual and formal looks. Fashion trends for spring and summer pay homage to the classics and return to the past. Monochrome ensembles in white and beige contrast with black and grey total looks. And to keep things a little more classic, there will also be summer pastels. The change of season is the perfect time to complete a capsule wardrobe that is extremely versatile, and this year's trends are very conducive to this.
