Levi KeswickThe summer season is officially here, and it’s time to transform our closets for the occasion. Gone are the days of springy pastels and floor-length trousers—replaced with flowing dresses and beach hats. But there’s more to summer fashion than simple beachwear and shorts, and knowing additional trends can really take your style to the next level. Here are some of the most noteworthy women’s summer fashion trends for 2020 and how to incorporate them into your look.
Colorful Leather
While wearing leather is a fashion trend that most people associate with the winter months, it’s interesting to note that it can also make a statement in other seasons. In fact, colorful leather is growing in popularity for the summer as it provides the class and elegance of leather clothing with the bright colors associated with the summer. This material is now available in a multitude of stylish colors, from dark green and cream to bright pastel pinks and yellows. Just be sure you choose a cooler day to break out these garments and stay out of direct sunlight to keep from damaging them.
Mixed and Matched Prints
Another important women’s summer fashion trend for 2020 is the appeal of mixed and matched outfit patterns. This trend isn’t as much about overwhelming patterns as it is about finding a balance between several colors and designs. It’s a great way to liven up a dull wardrobe and create a unique look that’s all your own. So, while it might take a few tips and tricks to perfect, this fashion trend is well worth having in your summer arsenal. As an additional note, retro prints are making a comeback and make the perfect base pattern to pair with another.
Side Cutouts and Cold Shoulders
The cold shoulder look has been a trend for several years now, and it will always go down as a fashion staple. But now, there’s a new trend that extenuates the appeal of cold shoulder outfits and provides an extra touch of intrigue—the side cutout. Whether it’s a tasteful slit or some playful ribbons showing a bit of bare skin along the side of a dress, this style screams summer fun. You can even class up this design with an overlay of lace or thin fabric.
