Ah, summer: The debatably-best season of the year has officially arrived.
Summer is great for so many things, after all. Think of the outdoor dining! The park-day hangouts! The beach days! But even better yet, is the fun summery fashions that we get to play around with—whether you are attending a destination wedding, doing date night, or just generally frollicking on a warm evening.
Need some dressing inspo? These past few weeks, celebrities have already been stepping out in their best summer ensembles—and there have already been some breakout fashion trends that have fast emerged. If you’re wondering what to wear in the hot days ahead, look to A-listers for some fresh styling propositions: From minimal white jeans to wild leopard-print bags, the celebrity-approved trends of the season have just about something for everyone.
Below, read on for the breakout celebrity fashion trends of summer (so far).
The Summer of the Flip-Flop Continues
You may think of the humble flip-flop as a shoe only to be worn by the pool or to the beach—but au contraire, my friend. Everyone from Jennifer Lawrence to Bad Bunny has been slipping into the sleek thong sandal—styling it casually with jeans and a hoodie, or dressed up with a chic floral dress. The simple sandal instantly adds a cool, nonchalant feel to any outfit.
The White Jean
Much has been said about the white jean—that it cannot be worn before Labor Day, or that it’s strictly for coastal grandmas only—but celebrities have been proving that a straight-leg pair is classic and timeless, and totally perfect for summer. Do like Kendall Jenner and pair it with a black tee and sweater slung over the shoulder—or like Daisy Edgar-Jones, and pair it with a pop of color, like a lightweight red knit for a dinner al fresco.
The Silk Slip—Or Skirt
A slip dress—very ’90s—is one of those wardrobe staples that never really dies, but it especially shines in the summer time, when lightweight fabrics reign supreme. Stars such as Vittoria Ceretti, Suki Waterhouse, and Katie Holmes have embraced the sensual slip in cream or white—while Jennifer Lopez recently donned a silky skirt with a thin, barely-there knit cardigan.
The Leopard Bag
The It bag of summer? It takes a walk on the wild side: leopard-printed styles have been trending on stars like Harry Styles, Sarah Pidgeon, and Eyo Edebiri. The trend ignited thanks to the popularity of Matthieu Blazy’s Chanel versions on the runway, and it’s easy to understand their universe appeal. Paired with a simpler getup like jeans and a tee, the bold bags instantly make your outfit—and give it some unexpectedly quirky personality.
The Floral (or Foliage!) Print
We know, we know: Florals, for spring-summer? Groundbreaking! But they can still feel fresh, especially when done through unexpected shapes and silhouettes. Stars like Taylor Swift, for one, have embraced the floral pattern in an off-the-shoulder prairie dress, while supermodel Bella Hadid donned a chiffon wrap-tied floral top in Cannes, paired with her best white jeans. Incorporating two hot summer trends into one outfit? She’s simply ahead of the curve.
These are just some of the most popular summer trends so far—and guess what? The season is only just starting! So, keep your eyes peeled as even more breakout celebrity fashion trends emerge from this summer. We’ll be tracking them all here as they develop.
