Two New Fashion Microtrends To Add To Your List
The fashion world never fails to entertain us. Its constant evolution is truly enthralling. With each season comes a fresh array of styles, whether it’s a microtrend or a major shift, ensuring there’s always something to revitalize your wardrobe. This spring, we have witnessed two microtrends taking over. So consider adding them to your list while shopping for your summer pieces.
1 || The Drop Waist
We are sure you’ve come across it many times while scrolling your social media, especially after the Met Gala. The silhouette basically starts tight at the top before billowing or flaring out at the skirt.
The dropped waist dress trend has been a standout on many Spring/Summer 2024 runways. Drawing inspiration from the 1920s fashion era, this reimagined style retains the elongated silhouette and hip-hugging feature but with a contemporary twist, shifting focus from the hemline to the elongated body element. Unlike designs of the 1920s, 2024’s dropped waist dresses come in a variety of lengths, spanning from floor-sweeping gowns to chic mini dresses. Some incorporate complementary trends like voluminous underlays, cloud-like bubble skirts, and V-shaped corsets with flared skirts, adding depth and dimension to the design.
The lowered waistline exudes a retro, feminine charm and pairs seamlessly with all hemline lengths.
2 || Lack Of Pattern
If you follow a minimal approach to fashion, you may not have noticed this. Otherwise, have you noticed that everyone is wearing solid colors this season unlike the past one? Monochromatic outfits and solid colors are dominating the fashion scene this year, replacing the exuberance of patterns and prints. A glance at the runways and street fashion of Spring/Summer 2024 confirms this trend. You might even catch yourself gravitating towards solid pieces while shopping, influenced by their prevalence in everyone’s wardrobes.
