7. Fringes and Tassels

Bohemian vibes are strong with the resurgence of fringes and tassels. These playful additions, swinging from bags, shoes, and clothing, add a touch of whimsy to any outfit.

While they have a strong association with the free-spirited 70s, today’s fringes and tassels are more refined. They’re used sparingly to add just the right amount of movement and flair, making outfits dance with every step.

 

8. Oversized Silhouettes

Comfort is paramount in 2023, and oversized silhouettes are its flagbearers. From billowy dresses to roomy blazers, fashion is giving us the space we crave.

But oversized doesn’t mean shapeless. The key is in balancing proportions. A baggy sweater might be paired with fitted trousers, or a loose dress cinched at the waist. It’s about freedom, with a touch of structure.

 

9. Metallics

The future is shining bright, quite literally, with metallics. These shimmering fabrics, in golds, silvers, and iridescent hues, are not just for evening wear anymore.

Daytime metallics, paired with neutrals, are becoming increasingly popular. A silver metallic blouse might be paired with white trousers for a day at the office, proving that shimmer isn’t just for the night.
