As summer draws near, we can all look forward to the delightful warmth of the sun on our skin, which lifts our spirits thanks to serotonin, the happiness hormone.  Every summer brings a whirlwind of wild and crazy, and this year’s trends have us all curiously speculating.

Last summer presented some fascinating trends: bows adorned nearly every item, cheetah print was ceaseless, floral accessories made a vibrant statement, and countless sheer tops and skirts became wardrobe staples

With the summer of 2025 just around the corner – only a month away – there’s an air of anticipation about what this season is going to bring. Will we see a revival of floral prints, or will new trends emerge?

Let’s dive into patterns. Last year was all about cheetah print. This year, camouflage is set to dominate. This summer, expect a multitude of designs, where camo takes center stage. We can thank Hollister for that, with their early enthusiasm for the trend. 

Another standout style that seems to be making waves this summer is the crochet bathing suit. Opening any social media app reveals that crochet is becoming a must-have. Additionally, skirts, no matter the length, remain a summer favorite.

A popular pairing making a splash this summer is jerseys with bandanas. It’s clear that jerseys won’t just be a fleeting trend; they’re here to stay well past summer.

Summer is the perfect atmosphere for beach outings, and people are becoming inventive with their tanning techniques, giving themselves ‘tanning tattoos’. By using stencils to create designs while soaking up the sun, tanning has become a much more enjoyable experience. 

Regardless of the trends or summer activities that unfold, we can all agree that this season is the perfect opportunity to show off our best selves. Get ready for a summer filled with vibrant style.
