Fashion Trends for Spring – Summer 2021

Fashion trend 2021: balloon sleeves

A fashion trend from 2020 will remain trend in spring / summer 2021: The puff sleeves of the 70s and 80s get an even more eye-catching upgrade and become real balloon sleeves. Now you don’t just wear blouses with balloon sleeves, but also jackets, coats and the like with XXL shoulders.

Fashion trend 2021: lingerie details

Why hide what’s under? One of the strongest fashion trends in 2021 are lingerie details. Tops and camisoles in lingerie look are now clearly worn and no longer just underneath. The designers prefer to combine this trend with long skirts like here at Paco Rabane.

For those who prefer it simple, this fashion trend in spring 2021 is made for you: The white dress is no longer just worn as a bride to the wedding, but also in everyday life. The color white creates a spring mood and looks elegant. Too elegant? White dresses can be styled with a few details: black, chunky boots or a casual waistcoat go well with this fashion trend. If you want something edgy: choose a white dress with cut-outs, like here at Fendi.

Fishnet look is a fashion trend in 2021

One of the big fashion trends for 2021 is the fishnet look. Maritime details in fashion are returning and whet the appetite for the sea. Fishnet tops, dresses and skirts are combined with bright colors such as coral and shimmering accessories in mother-of-pearl colors. Too transparent? Don’t panic, transparency is now fashionable.

Transparent clothing in spring 2021

As in the previous year, there was a lot of tulle and transparency on the runway shows for Spring / Summer 2021. How good that this fashion trend can be combined very well with a few others. If the fashion trend of transparent blouses and tops is too transparent for you, wear a bralette underneath. If that is still too daring for you, you can opt for tops on which only a part is transparent.

Fashion trend 2021: wide trousers

A fashion trend that everyone loves: wide-leg pants. After sweatpants experienced a real fashion hype last year – also due to Corona – pants with wide legs are now in trend. Wide-leg pants should be comfortable and look stylish at the same time. The fashion trend for 2021 are wide trousers with a high waistband that conjure up a great waistline.

Fashion trends 2021: trend color beige

The trend color beige will remain with us in spring and summer 2021. Monochrome looks were already a fashion trend last year, now the beige fashion trend is being extended. Why? Outfits in beige can look elegant as well as casual and have something timeless about them.

Fashion trend 2021: tank tops

Is it still too cold for a shirt, too warm for a sweater? This spring there’s a fashionable solution to the problem: tank tops will be all the rage again in 2021. It is best to style oversized tank tops over shirts and shirt dresses. Combine it with a crossbody bag, like here at Luis Vuitton, and the fashion trend is in place.

XXL bags: fashion trend 2021

If you are in the mood for a new bag trend, you should be careful now, because after the mini bags and bum bags there will be a fashion trend in 2021 that will go to the other extreme: XXL bags with wide shoulder straps are popular in spring and summer – whether made of fabric, Leather, vinyl or plastic. Practical, because everything really fits into the XXL bag. The fashion trend is worn in bright colors, best to match the outfit like here at Acne Studios.

Flip-flops with plateau and high heels with toe separators are the new shoe trend. Those who find it difficult to do so can look forward to another fashion trend: wooden sandals and clogs are an important fashion trend in spring and summer 2021.

Oversized Blazer & amp; Overalls

They were a huge trend in 2019 and will continue to be so in the new season: suits, blazers and overalls. In spring / summer 2020, especially in the oversized version, from plain to bright colors, with unusual details and XXL cuts. New this season is the vest. This is how a trouser suit becomes an edgy three-piece suit. Pantsuit looks were omnipresent on the catwalks at Celine, Max Mara, Gucci, Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs. Particularly popular with fashion professionals and street style stars: monochrome looks and checked blazers!

Shades of green

In addition to eye-catching statement colors, green tones are also strongly represented in summer. Both light, muted green tones and bright, poisonous green could be seen on the catwalks – we love the green ensemble from the Parisian label Tara Jarmon, which is the ideal choice for the summer thanks to the flowing materials!
