In early 2024, fashion trends revived past trends, along with new and more unique styles never heard of before. With spring and summer already on the rise, here are predictions and noticeable come ups to be ahead of the game this year.
Cheetah/Leopard Print
This feisty accent piece sailed away in the mid 2010s, being considered outdated and hard to piece together. Though in 2024, it has come through better than ever. When styling leopard or cheetah prints, it is especially important to note how it should be styled. The prints work best with solid colors, especially browns, blacks, and more recently, a muted maroon red. While we’re at it, don’t be surprised if zebra print makes its way back into your closet! However, these solid tones bring out just the right amount of cheetah and pop in an outfit, whether it be printed pants, tops, or another trend: fur jackets.
Fur Jackets
Fur jackets have personally never been out of the game, though their rise in the early winter has made them even cooler. While spring and summer make it a bit too warm to wear fur coats, fur vests are a great option to spice up and accentuate any classic monotone looks. Even more so, they can elevate muted tones and make staples within the closet already dressed up at any given moment. I would even be one to say that fur belts could possibly be on the rise at some point soon.
Belts
In recent, chunky belts have become a great staple to carry baggy jean looks, but even more so to aid in a look with long skirts. When paired with a maxi skirt, chunky belts are the way to go, and I feel we’ll be seeing a lot more of them throughout the summer.
Shoes
Bringing summer in and changing out the wardrobe for more fitting options is difficult, as summer can be the quickest time to come, with trends switching out super quickly. With that, most of the trending shoe options are sold out, and if you know, the sambas are one of those main options. However, the SB Pogo’s by Nike are a wonderfully similar option, with so many colors to choose from, and a slightly different look. Further, the Puma Palermo’s have gained a bit of attraction, and can give a great pop of color to any summer outfit. If you’re looking for a good sandal option that isn’t uncomfortable or too mainstream, I would look out for clogs! We’ve seen a lot with the Boston Birkenstocks, and how they’ve been styled, but so many platform mules and open toed clogs are the perfect way to bring out color and height to an outfit, while remaining comfortable. A brand called Demonia Cult offers great options!
Shorts
The all-denim look has been seen more and more, though styling throughout the summer is difficult. However, a good option to counter that, that I’ve seen more and more, is a mesh tight paired with denim shorts. It offers that 2014 look that everyone has been craving, and I feel we’ll be seeing more of this punky look throughout the spring and early summer days!
In this glimpse into predictions and up and coming trends, I hope you’re able to gain inspiration and even look to find your own unique way of styling yourself, or even making your own trends. Fashion moves so quickly, and the best way to express oneself often isn’t doing exactly what is trending, but rather finding what suits you best, and making it work in your own beautiful ways!
