After a year of home office, digital shows, zoom meetings and drastic changes in the fashion industry, summer 2021 was deeply awaited by many. Why? Since the beginning of 2020, when the term covid-19 started showing up, everything and everyone had to adapt to a new normality in a matter of days. Since then, designers have looked forward to include new adapted pieces to their collections. Comfort wear, working-from-home clothing, wide-legged designs and maxi dresses are now everywhere and they are clearly staying this summer.
Dior, Chanel, Proenza Schouler and Alberta Ferreti (to name a few) are making a statement this summer 2021 and we are here to show you why. So get ready, here’s everything you need to know in order to pack your bags this season.
Go get a crop top!
Loved by Bella Hadid and plenty other models while being off-duty, crop tops are here to stay and they are looking better than ever. Tip: wear them with a monochromatic outfit, it will make you unstoppable.
The‘90s floss is back and you need it.
Straps everywhere! Mr. Simon Porte Jacquemus gave us a lesson on how to style them in his spring/summer 2021 show and we are completely sure of something: cords will look beautiful on you.
Tip: Go buy a perfect pair of high-waisted jeans to look amazing.
Capes for the superhero you know you’ve always wanted to be
While Rick Owens is the king of capes, a lot of designers are showing how good their cape-skills are and we’re loving it. Pairing them with a perfect evening gown is a great mix and will make you feel like you belong to a movie.
Nets for summer!
We know it may sound weird, but nets are perfect for your wardrobe this summer. Balenciaga, Acne Studios and Jil Sanders inspired us to use them in different ways. Don’t hesitate on buying one, they look great in skirts and mini shorts!
Studio 54?!
Who said Disco was gone?! If you feel like dancing, it’s the perfect time to do it. (Plus, it’s a huge trend this season.) Add a sparkly piece to your list for summer. Tip: Planning on going to a formal event soon? Don’t hesitate to sparkle.
