Fashion trends for summer 2023
Fashion is something that is always changing, either through the creation of new ideas or by rescuing already-known ones. Let's check out the main trends for the summer of 2023!
For lovers of high-waisted pants, the nightmare has begun. For the summer of 2023, denim fashion will go back to the 2000s and bring low waists, exposed bellies, and knee-high boots.
Jeanswear fashion will be present from head to toe in the most diverse styles, whether printed, worn, or studded. What matters is to unite all the pieces as much as possible in the same look.
The fabrics that contribute to the season's fashion are often thicker. Volume is key in the shoulders and hips. To contrast this trend, materials such as lace and transparencies allow for the fluidity that the season calls for.
Despite being summer, the idea of overlapping pieces is present in the designs, as if to deconstruct the concepts we always associated with the season. Jackets, coats, and blazers can be worn or buttoned in new ways. Cutouts also appear on the sleeves, where they occupy a more aesthetic than a functional role.
Lace appears not only as a detail but can also dominate entire outfits. The pieces of material are combined in such a way as to bring an air of sensuality and intimacy to the look.
For a more romantic look, the lace is combined with ruffles and bows. Nevertheless, in the composition of any trendy outfit, it is important that there is a shock element, such as big accessories or a bold shoe.
In some cases, the materials of the outfits embrace elements from other seasons. The color palette can assume sober tones of gray, beige, purple, blue, and black.
The concept of 'cargo' is something extreme: either you love it or you hate it. For those who don't like it, the bad news is that cargo is back. Those who love it, on the other hand, can go all out this summer.
The 'cargo' goes along with a greater number of pockets of different styles and lengths.
And for the style bet to be complete, the idea is to go 'cargo' with everything and in every type of piece: skirts, dresses, shorts, and even coats.
The grunge style, which marked the turn of the century, is back. However, this time it is more sophisticated. Traditional pieces go together with the refinement of stiletto heels, elegant hairdos, and elaborate accessories.
The tight cut, close to the body, reappears after a season in which wide models reigned. The trend can be seen in almost every style, from business to sporty, casual, and glamorous glitter.
In terms of print, designers have been inspired by the body. N u d i t y appears printed on the pieces with the aim of giving a playful and provocative look.
And once again, the body is the center of attention. Transparencies appear colorful and ethereal, whether in a single piece or a complete look.
Leather clothes break the protocol. The pieces, which dominated the fashion shows of several brands, all had the same objective: to confer sensuality and express a modern and casual air.
Almost always associated with the cowboy look, fringes are back with everything - from leather jackets to fluid pieces. They give the look more impact, movement, and an air of fantasy.
This season's fringes can be made with lighter materials, for example with those resembling feathers. The material is seen in every type of clothing or on accessories, bags, shoes, and belts.
Hips gain special prominence in the summer of 2023. Some brands such as Dior, Loewe, and Collina Strada were inspired by the Victorian Era and the volume of its skirts as they created their collections.
Other parts of the body that get special attention are the shoulders. Structured pieces and shoulder pads gain new contours with pointed or slightly rounded volumes.
