What Youâll Learn in This Episode:
1. Slim Sneakers & Sporty Chic:
Sneakers continue their reign, but this year it's all about slim silhouettes. Think lightweight styles like Pumas, Adidas, and boxing-inspired high-tops. Pair them with flowy skirts or romantic dresses for a modern twist. Sporty chic also takes center stage with bold motorsport-inspired graphics, silk anoraks, and track jackets. Sporty Spics is BACK.
Don't forget to keep an eye on collections from LVMH brands influenced by the Paris Olympics for high-fashion takes on this trend. Professional athletes are also in the fashion hot seat as brands are turning to them for strong brand influence.
2. Animal Prints & Stripes: (never gets old)
Animal prints, including zebra, tiger, and snake patterns, are timeless yet reinvigorated for Spring 2025. Any of these prints as an accessory, such as a leopard-print shoe or scarf can instantly elevate your outfit and take it to the next level. Stripes are equally versatile, with bold options layered in contrasting widths and colors. Days of the boring horizontal striped t-shirt have new life again with this trend. Try layering different types of stripes for an unexpected play-on pattern.
Designers like Proenza Schouler and Dior showcase this preppy-meets-edgy vibe beautifully.
3. Plaid and Preppy:
Plaid remains a key player in the preppy fashion resurgence, but Hollyâs rule is clear: less is more. Opt for plaid as an accent rather than the focal pointâthink flowy skirts, tailored layers, or abstract plaid dresses as seen in Ralph Laurenâs recent runway show.
Pair plaid with skirts, jackets, loafers, or oxford shoes to nail the preppy look. Men's neckties on women are making a huge comeback as well. When in doubt, try a plaid bag or scarf to add some color to your look. Think of it as a neutral that can go with anything.
4. Fringe & Ruffles:
Fringe isnât just for country looks anymore. From leather jackets to car-wash-inspired fringe dresses (like Hollyâs burgundy stunner from Toccin), this trend adds drama to any outfit. Ruffles are another standout, seen in Zimmerman and Cynthia Rowley collections.
Be mindful of fitâruffles can either highlight or overwhelm, depending on placement. For a twist, try an asymmetrical version- this usually compliments the body to draw your eye down to create a longer, leaner look.
5. The Jeans Conundrum:
Baggy jeans, dad jeans, and slim-straight styles are all the rage, with brands like Proenza Schouler and Pistola Jeans leading the charge. Acid washes, barrel silhouettes, and wide-leg fits offer plenty of options for every aesthetic.
Let us help you navigate the confusion and choose the perfect pair for your shape and style.
6. Bubble Silhouettes:
This playful, voluminous shape makes a comeback in both sophisticated and casual designs. From Jonathan Simkhai's elegant bubble dresses to Reformation's more accessible bubble miniskirts, this trend is back from OVER 30 years ago and is super popular right now.
7. Accessories Galore:
Welcome to the era of "excessive accessorization"! Glamour Magazineâs term for this trend encapsulates stacked necklaces, statement earrings (check out brands like Lelet NY), and bold scarves. Bags also get a refreshâthink oversized totes, sleek daytime bags, and timeless clutches.
Hot Tip: Remember, accessories are the key to taking your outfit to the next level.
Whether youâre a minimalist looking for key pieces or a maximalist ready to go all out, Holly has all the styling tips and tricks to make these trends work for you.
