The summer breeze brings along with it vibrant colors and bold fashion statements to shake up your wardrobe. Pastel colors strike back as the hottest ongoing trend of the year, alongside the comeback of plastic and mesh wear from the 60s. Talk about a blast from the past!

Pastels:

Pastels! A personal favorite! These have been the trendsetter for all of 2017, bringing new elements into 2018 by introducing muted shades of yellow and orange, and hues of lilac and lavender. These shades give the full head-to-toe makeover, starting from suits, to t-shirts to pants.

These shades, otherwise described as ice cream colors, accessorize a casual look. Simply add a handy clutch or flat pastel shoes to your dress, and the look is complete!

Bold colors:

Contrary to the muted shades of the pastels, these saturated colors give a bold fashion statement, whether they’re in the form of a power suit or an elegant dress. These intense, vibrant colors are sure to make a lasting impression!

Consider Balenciaga’s collaboration with crocs in designing this customized look. Definitely bold and hard to forget!

Plastic Clothing:

A revisited concept from our childhood (or perhaps earlier), the plastic trend has taken the fashion industry by storm this year, spicing up how fashion is defined to us conventionally.

Sheer:

Otherwise known as see-through clothing, sheer clothing is quite similar to the concept of plastic as a fabric, but wilder, and definitely more daring. It adds a sensual and exciting touch to your outfit!

Stripes:

Last but not the least, a trend we’re familiar with. Stripes are fun, colorful and versatile for all clothing types. They make outfits appear more interesting, yet simple. Stripes of all shapes, sizes and textures are fashionable these days!

The new fashion trends of the year refresh old styles and introduce new elements, therefore showing that a hint of spice can never go wrong in defining your style and elevating it. So, what are you waiting for? Head out and shop for these trends!
