One of the most versatile pieces this season is the denim jacket. To be on-trend, it should have a retro vibe—think worn, acid-washed looks, oversized fits, and adorned with vintage patches or stickers.
Leather dresses are not only stylish but surprisingly comfortable even in warm weather. These can be paired with virtually anything, making them a must-have item.
Opt for sleeveless designs. The most fashionable leather pieces this year include blazers without sleeves or those with short sleeves. Popular colors range from soft pastels to vibrant hues of blue, yellow, red, and green.
Crop tops continue to be a major trend. These are particularly flattering for those with a toned midsection and are perfect for showcasing a flat tummy.
Streetwear dresses should be light and breezy. This season, straight-cut dresses with simple lines are particularly in demand.
The color palette for this season includes refreshing shades like mint, turquoise, pink, and orange.
Trousers with sharp creases are in vogue this season. The summer 2016 pants are all about standing out with bright, eye-catching colors.
Dresses crafted from natural fabrics are making a strong comeback. These dresses are designed to flatter the figure and highlight your best features.
Solid colors and stripes are back in fashion. Wide stripes, in particular, create a slimming effect and add height to the wearer.
Bird prints are the standout trend for this summer. Whether large or small, black or white, the key is to have bird motifs as part of your wardrobe.
When it comes to footwear, summer 2016 sees the return of styles inspired by ancient times. Think straps, gladiator sandals, and similar designs.
Pointed-toe shoes and other variations with an antique twist remain stylish and in demand.
As for handbags, the trend this year moves away from sack-like bags. The focus is now on bags with defined shapes and clear structures.
