From cargo pants to sheer dresses and funky accessories, we’re going big this year. Experiment with different fabrics and textures, colors, and styles – add layers and play with a wider color palette. If your wardrobe needs a refresher, this is the list for you. We have gathered the best street style trends from Spring/Summer 2023 fashion weeks that are sure to inspire you.

 

1. Matching Print Sets

There’s nothing quite like a matching print set. Not only are they super cute, but they’re also easy to wear almost anywhere. Without needing to find a complementary color, you can rock this look effortlessly. Try a striped suit, a jacket, and a mini skirt set, or a longline tunic with an identical pair of trousers. What makes these outfits so special is the streamlined effect it gives your body – you can elongate your limbs and develop a funky silhouette instantly. Rock it with accessories in complementary hues, such as socks, shoes, or a bag, or throw something in that is an entirely opposite shade. Moreover, you can mix and match with other styles later if you wish – it’s multiple looks in one.

2. Ballerina Flats

Balletcore has officially arrived on the scene. From the early 00s to today, ballet flats have been a contentious style that you either love or hate. No matter your thoughts, the trend is here for the season and can be worn in many ways. Stay true to the aesthetic with a maxi skirt that hits your ankle with a wrap-around cardigan or a long-sleeved shirt – pale shades like white, pink, cream, and baby blue are perfect for this trend. Alternatively, you can try a mix of aesthetics, including the ’80s-inspired legwarmers scrunched downwards with a longline skirt and blazer.

3. Neon Accessories

Shades brighter than the sun have been in and out of style in the last few years, but they are back with a bang. While we do not see as many garments in these neon hues this season, it’s all about accessories. Think footwear, handbags, sunglasses, and jewelry. Add fresh life to your neutral shades by incorporating these vibrant pieces into the mix – a pair of yellow heels are sure to reinvigorate an oversized blazer or plain black trousers. The key to pulling this look off is matching your accessories – keep the pieces in a similar, if not the same, color family for a holistic feel.

4. Sheer Dresses

Inspired by Dior and Prada, sheer dresses are back in a big way this season. You can style this trend in so many ways, whether it be influenced by the New Look from 1947 or a grunge-infused aesthetic. Pair these see-through designs with a plain white singlet for a laidback and effortless ’90s style, and throw on a bomber jacket for an extra cool touch. Alternatively, you can channel an old Hollywood feel with a corset silhouette and A-line skirt, with minimal jewelry and delicate heels. Play with textures for a multi-faceted look – it’s a refreshed take on a classic fabric.

5. Bright Multi-Color Knits

As the temperatures cool, it’s natural for us to lean into our neutral shades – but this year, why not go the opposite route and say goodbye to old gray knit sweaters? This season it’s all about bright colors and fun patterns, celebrating loud hues and vibrant prints. Worn with blue jeans, shorts, or a mini skirt, they add a new layer of unexpected styling that is fun and unique. The beauty behind this trend is its versatility – layer it with a white T-shirt or a turtleneck underneath, or keep it clean with nothing at all. You’ll bring the sunshine every day, even if it’s freezing outside.

6. Cargo Pants

The Y2K era is back, baby! While five years ago, you may not have expected cargo pants to be one of the biggest fashion week trends, the trendsetters are here to prove them cooler than ever. Worn with a plain white singlet, this trend is laidback but still elevated. To avoid looking like you’re on a fishing trip, swap out sneakers for a pair of stilettos or chunky boots for extra height. Another important element to incorporate is layers – bright colors are a fun addition to the military-style khaki. Still, you can stay within the palette by adding similar hues in the form of cardigans or jackets.

7. Cut Out Dresses

From weddings to the runway, cut-out dresses have been all the range for a few years, and it’s not going anywhere. Rather than the traditional torso-based cut-outs that we’re used to seeing, expect to try a silhouette with skin showing on the side of your frame, underboob and rib cage, or the entire side of your body. These body-skimming designs are daring but can be paired back with the help of a longline cardigan or coat. To take the look from day to night, swap out a pair of chunky boots or sneakers for sky-high heels or sandals, and put your hair in a slicked-back bun for an elegant feel.

8. White All Over

What’s chicer than an all-white outfit? Taking its inspiration from the ’60s, this futuristic and effortless trend creates clean lines and is the perfect outfit choice for any season. Be it hot or cold, this aesthetic is paired back and timeless, and thanks to its versatility, you can style it any way you like. Love a pair of jeans, boots and a shirt? You’ve got it. How about a turtleneck or a mini dress and a matching coat? You can mix and match textures easily, making every ensemble multidimensional and complex.

9. Exaggerated ’80s Shoulder Pads

Calling all Dynasty fans! The ’80s shoulder pads are making a comeback this season, and we’re excited about it. This trend is exaggerated, sure, but it creates an over-the-top silhouette that is futuristic and artsy. Most commonly seen in blazers, this style creates the appearance of enormous shoulders, which in turn, alludes to a tiny waist. Wear this trend with a mini skirt in a complementary shade, a suit, or a pair of simple jeans – the outerwear will instantly transform your outfit into something spectacular.

10. Cut Out Trousers

Not for the faint of heart, these cut-out trousers are daring and fashion-forward. Featuring plenty of skin, they’re a great way to experiment with the trend in a new way. You rock these at any point of the year, and their versatility makes them great for experimenting. Let the pants be the star of the show by pairing them with a classic T-shirt and a bomber jacket or blazer. Alternatively, you can show off extra skin by rocking a crop top in a contrasting shade for an edgier feel.
