9 Summer Trends We're Skipping and 9 We're Buying Immediately
You can just feel the excitement in the air for summer. With talk of the vacations we’re manifesting, the new-season trends bubbling up, and general enthusiasm for the reemergence ’fits and revenge heels we’ll be wearing in the reopening world, summer fashion is all our editors can talk about right now.
Curious to find out what they’ll actually be wearing once the warm weather hits, I asked our team to share the new summer fashion trends they’re eyeing for 2021, as well as the pieces that won’t be in their rotations. Predictable basics and hard-to-wear pieces aren’t making the cut this summer for our editors, but let me just tell you that the future of fashion looks bright. Our team is ready to embrace all of the bold prints and fun trends poised to take over this summer, and I’m already feeling really jazzed about all of the sartorial newness that’s just around the corner.
Skipping: Barely There SwimsuitsWearing: Three-Piece Swimsuits. While there are plenty of cool barely there swimsuits popping up with details like major cutouts and thong bottoms, I feel best in styles that involve a bit more coverage. Perhaps that's why I'm really into the three-piece swimsuits that are set to be one of the biggest trends this summer. With coordinating items like a button-down top to match your swimsuit, you can easily transform your bikini into a full look.Shop the matching Wavy Printed Bikini Bottoms ($120).Skipping: Peekaboo Tops and DressesWearing: Miniskirts. "These peekaboo tops and dresses that Dua Lipa wears so well feel a little impractical for my lifestyle. But as someone who's on the short side, I do love that miniskirts are so popular this season and intend to add a few to my wardrobe stat."Skipping: BasicsWearing: Beautiful Dresses. "With the world reopening, the last thing I want to be caught in is basics in any form—I want the excess. Give me all the beautiful dresses with colorful prints, cutouts, and colors. I want to be doing the most and wearing the most beautiful pieces all summer."Skipping: CheckerboardWearing: Retro Florals. "As much as I love all the checkerboard prints going on right now, it strikes me as one of those trends that will be played out in just a few months' time. So instead, I'm reaching for retro floral prints (and retro prints of all kinds, really) because they already have a vintage look to them, so they have more of a timeless appeal."Skipping: Knit Shorts SetsWearing: Crochet. "While I love lightweight knit sets, I feel like I've worn them to death at this point. For summer, I'll be leaning into retro and free-spirited crochet pieces instead—a trend I'm seeing everywhere right now that's perfect for the warm-weather season."Skipping: Floss TopsWearing: Layered Tops. "I've tried to give floss tops a go, but since I have a bigger bust, they're not as supportive as I'd like. Seems easy to solve, right? Just wear a bra. But often these tops are on the thinner side, so wearing a bra isn't ideal for a seamless look. I'm putting them on the back burner for now and instead making a beeline for the layered-top trend. I just bought this one from Helmut Lang, and it's genius because you can fasten it to wear it so many different ways."Skipping: Super-Tiny SunglassesWearing: Oversize Sunglasses. "I'm not as into the super-tiny sunglasses anymore. Instead, I'm favoring those bold, oversize sunglasses for a statement-making vibe."Skipping: Bodycon DressesWearing: Square-Neck A-Line Dresses. "Anything curve-hugging is just not for me this summer since I am looking for maximum comfort. I am gravitating toward fun midi dresses with square necklines and forgiving A-line silhouettes."Skipping: Thong HeelsWearing: House Slippers. "I love seeing the return of thong heels and fashion flip-flops on other people, but every time I've worn or tried to wear the shoes myself, I simply just haven't felt like me. On the other hand, the house-slippers-outside-shoes trend feels right up my alley and more in tune with my style. I already own a few pairs but can't help but want to add more to my wardrobe."
If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
