"If there’s a transition from one season to another that beats out all the rest each year, it’s the welcoming of spring. The sun starts shining again, it finally starts staying light out longer in the evening, and there’s a feeling in the air that can’t quite be explained. As we turned our calendars to March this week, it’s officially time to start counting down the hours until that first 60-degree day and planning which of spring 2024’s fashion trends we’re going to break out of our hibernation to wear.
If you’re looking for a fashionable holiday gift for any man in your life, you cannot go wrong with anything from Sézane’s men’s collection, Octobre Éditions.
After a long, cold winter, spring 2024’s trends are the trends we deserve. Sheer, delicate frocks are juxtaposed with boardroom-ready tailoring, high-shine fabrics are turning heads, and gorgeous, intricate florets are giving a new meaning to florals for spring. Gone are the days of wrapping ourselves in layer upon layer—it’s time to have a fashion renaissance.
Spring is in the air, and damn it, it’s time to dress like it. These seven spring 2024 trends are about to take over our algorithms and our closets—and we definitely aren’t mad about it.
The Best Fashion Trends of Spring 2024
The color of the year may be Peach Fuzz, according to Pantone, but the shades of icy blue that paraded down Spring/Summer ’24 runways said otherwise. While it was worn head to toe at Proenza Schouler and Stella McCartney, the Cinderella-esque hue shared the spotlight with a fiery vermillion at Fendi, showing off its versatile but potent potential. Pastels for spring aren’t exactly a new concept, but something about the soft, sky blue feels like a metaphor for crossing the finish line signaling winter’s end.
Metallics were embraced by fashion’s very coolest over the past few seasons, but until now, silver has retained its first-place status. While silver will continue to try to make an argument for replacing your gold jewelry, we’ll see it yield its popularity across clothes to its guilded cousin—and when you get a glimpse of the foiled finish in action, it isn’t hard to understand its appeal. The Grecian dress Christy Turlington closed Ralph Lauren’s much-anticipated return to New York Fashion Week last September, making show-goers and the collective internet wonder: “Why haven’t I been wearing head-to-toe gold lamé?”
For once, you might actually want to bring work outside your 9-5—if you’re referring to your finest business-casual attire, that is. This spring is bringing a modern take to the formerly stuffy subset of dressing by playing with proportions. Relaxed, oversized blazers were paired with tees and tailored shorts at Jil Sander, and an embossed pencil skirt was paired with an understated sweatshirt at Gucci. By mixing contrasting fits, corporatecore is proving it’s good for a whole lot more than office hours.
Between the rise (and subsequent sell-out) of the leopard print Wales Bonner Adidas Sambas and Rosamund Pike wearing three leopard-clad numbers on the Saltburn press tour, it’s safe to say that the print is officially back for spring 2024. While many will retort that leopard print never went anywhere—”it’s a neutral!”—it’s true to say it’s far more prevalent this season than it’s been in recent years.
Naked dressing has made its through the red carpet circuits, and the nipple has been freed, and this spring, sheer dressing will finally trickle down to the common folk. Between skin-baring, openwork knits at Proenza Schouler, see-through lace at Carolina Herrera, and airy, transparent fabrics at Altuzzara, one thing became crystal-clear (pun intended): This spring, skin is in.
If the first thing you think of when you hear “polo shirt” is a skin-tight top with a Hollister bird on it, fear not: Against all odds, 2024’s take on polos makes them feel cool again. Miu Miu sent a slew of models down the runway with sporty, logo-bearing polos juxtaposed by frilly, ruffled mini skirts, making the icon of the 2010s feel modern and enticing.
After a year of celebrating girlhood, it’s no surprise that another ultra-feminine trend is in play to follow suit after bow-mania and Barbiecore pink. Intricate rosettes bloomed on the SS’24 runways in many beautiful forms, from subtle rosettes tacked onto waistlines at Sandy Liang to literal roses nestled into layers of tulle at Simone Rocha. 3D appliques are serving as an updated, inspired floral option for spring, and they’re giving us a reminder to stop and smell the roses.
