Snapshots
New fashion trends emerge alongside the exhilarating new year, and trust us, there is so much to look forward to! Fashion as a tool of soft power—the ability to sway, enchant, entice, and bewitch—rather than politics, is the central theme of the fashion trends of 2025. This year’s fashion trends generally have an encouraging, optimistic, and pro-hyper-feminine style that has got us excited!
There is a lot to look forward to when it comes to fashion trends in 2025! Whether you're looking for the next big thing in pink (spoiler: it's not Barbie!) or some creative new ways to wear your old track trousers, 2025 fashion is all about practicality as much as it is about glitz.
Here are the most prominent styles that will be dominating the runways in the coming year, so be sure to read on
Coastal chic for the summer
There is an abundance of seaside-themed pieces that provide creative, functional, and seasonally suitable clothing options; these pieces are inspired by sunny beach weekends but can be worn in any weather or setting. Important items are sailor-striped clothing, airy cotton dresses and skirts, and windproof outerwear, just in case the weather outside is windy! We can't avoid discussing stripes while discussing navy chic, can we? You guessed it: the fashion trend is stripes over stripes upon stripes, which are all the rage right now. The delight of wearing every possible combination of stripes... all at once, is the driving force behind this maximalist trend. People, pattern mixing is making a triumphant return!

Romantic ruffles
Whether it's lace, ruffles, or sheer, we're here for all your whimsical moments in 2019. This trend is practically plucked from your favourite romance book, so it's only natural to wonder if it's related to the current obsession with Bridgerton! How could we overlook the classic pink while discussing tulle and romance? Even if a more subdued shade of pink has been making its runway debut in recent years, 2025 will see a continued obsession with pink in the fashion industry. Ballet slippers and luscious pink hues—that's what we’re predicting will be trending!

Skirts, meet pants!
This season, we're seeing a lot of hybrids in the fashion world, like skants, skousers and one-legged trousers. There are a lot of options for hybrids, but midi and short skirts paired with jeans or fitted pants provide unlimited style inspiration. Think early Disney Channel red carpet outfits on your favourites like Miley Cyrus and Ashley Tisdale!

Everyday athleisure
Sportswear has become an integral part of the fashion industry, thanks to several sporting events such as the Olympics, World Championships, and football cups. The displays offered numerous fresh concepts to include in the list of fashion trends in 2025. Although athleisure has been popular for some time, we're here to inform you that by 2025, it will be quite common to mix and match your sports and casual clothing. Imagine a tracksuit paired with a miniskirt or a fitness shirt paired with pants—the possibilities are endless!

Elevated minimalism
Minimalist clothing is set to dominate fashion trends in 2025! A revisionist approach to this trend benefits greatly from texture, fringe, and crochet. The point isn't to get rid with clean lines altogether; rather, it's to highlight their restrained senses via inventiveness and skill.

Mob wife returns
The recent fashion week proved, if anything, that faux fur is making a very strong return. Fluffy shearling textures, vividly coloured versions, and printed versions are all on display. The jackets are equally at home with tan work trousers and a stereotypical pair of big sunglasses, so there's still room for individualism in this highly specific trends!

OTT coats
Now this fashion trend is for the ages! A leather coat reminiscent of Neo from The Matrix—complete with huge shoulder pads and an endless supply of length—is the perfect finishing touch to any ensemble. It may be time to visit your local antique store, grandpa's closet or the shopping gallery below if you haven't already joined the trench that could fit all your belongings trend!

Cowboy chic
While blue jeans are a classic, embroidered denim gives you more room to express your individuality. The retro-inspired '70s fashion allows people to express themselves through a wide variety of motifs, embroidery, and patchwork. By the way, if you want to seem put-together in an instant, all you have to do is pair basic jeans with embroidered tops. That’s it!
