"Summer is always my favorite season, and I love that we all finally have a reason to get excited about getting dressed again," Siboni said. "We're going to see people embrace more of a maximalist approach, especially with the return of social plans and events." The trends in question are all forward yet highly versatile and fun.

"Summer, for me, always has a bit of a bohemian vibe, and the newest trend that falls into this category is crochet. I am obsessed with this crochet cardigan from Helmut Lang and love the idea of wearing it as a cover-up over a bathing suit. A.L.C., Maje, and Vince also have great options, like wide-leg pants, midi skirts, cropped bra tops, and more.""Orange is the color of the moment, and for someone who usually wears a lot of black and white, I am having fun figuring out how to incorporate this color into my summer rotation. For those that are more hesitant with color, a swimsuit seems to be the easiest option, like Alexandra Miro's strapless one-piece.""If there was one message that came down the spring 2021 runways loud and clear, it was that we're going to be seeing more cutouts this season. This was one of the biggest summer trends, and it's prominent in everything from dresses to tops and bathing suits. There is no shortage of ways to wear this trend, but I have been personally loving it in bright colors and maxi dresses.""Bucket hats are back again this summer, and I love a trend that is both practical and cool. Every designer is doing one these days." "Resort shirts and shorts have been a go-to of mine for the past few summers when I don't know what to wear. If I'm feeling a bit more inspired, I'll break up the set and pair the top back to longer-length jean shorts or wear it over a bathing suit as a cover-up. Add a bucket hat, some beach beads, and lug-sole sandals, and you are good to go.""I didn't think I would be a 'clog girl,' but the clog life chose me. I think clogs are the perfect transitional shoe when you don't want to wear sandals but aren't yet ready for heavy boots. Plus, they're almost always slip-ons, and what could be easier than that? Swedish Hasbeens, a brand we recently added to our Bloomingdale's footwear assortment, has great styles.""Retro resortwear is having a moment, and I am loving all of the '60s floral prints, including these fun psychedelic designs below from Frankies Bikinis, Free People, and WAYF.""Terry is a micro-trend that is as comfortable as it is cool. You'll see this in everything from bikinis to matching sets, bucket hats, and hoodies."
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...
