  • Make a statement with your summer style: Add these fashion trends to your wardrobe

They say summer fashion is more effortless compared to dressing for other seasons. But is it really? You simply cannot keep playing with florals, whites, or cotton dresses. Of course, they definitely add to the vibe. However, there is more to summer fashion than just the basics. From 80s power dressing and art-inspired dressing to fun and feathers, several out-of-the-box styles are trending this summer. Let's take a look at what they are…

80s power dressing

In the 80s, women’s fashion was taken more seriously as it saw a shift in some working in high positions. Well, we’re talking about power suits with padded shoulders paired with bold accessories. Look around now, women are eagerly looking to revisit 80s power dressing to make a statement.

Outfits inspired by art

Art-inspired fashion or wearable art became a movement when designers borrowed ideas from art for their collections and interpreted them in their manner. Wearable art is your best bet if you want to make a statement with your sense of style this summer. If you can afford the big designers, nothing beats it. But plenty of small designers also make wearable art look classy and elegant.

Fun with frills

Want to add some element of fun to your summer dressing? Opt for dreamy ruffled dresses in minimal prints like polka dots or small designs that bring out the boisterous side of you. From midi ruffled dresses featuring a corseted bodice to noodle-strap layered dresses, there are plenty of options.

Colourful prints

What’s summer dressing without going all out with loud and colourful prints? While we usually reserve the nudes and neutral colours for winter, elevate your vibe and game by choosing dresses in colourful prints. Paired with the right accessories and footwear, these dresses work best for your summer vacation.

Tube tops

There is no explanation needed as to why one should wear tube tops. Like, duh! It’s summer. Wear them on extra hot days with skirts, cargo pants, or even your denim. And the best part… you can choose from an array of necklines.

Some trends to add to your summer look

* Plain headbands that work well with your face.

* Colourful kicks that you can wear with your summer dresses or shorts.

* Feather earrings or big loops that add to your overall vibe.

* Athleisure for the fit fashionistas.
