Paired with knee-high boots and a slinky turtleneck or blouse, the denim maxi skirt is bringing back elements of 90s fashion.

Sheer Layering

Well-known Italian fashion brand Miu Miu’s 2023 Spring runway featured several sheer transparent top and bottom sets and sheer overlay outfits that alluded to sexy yet simplistic looks.

The sheer layering trend can be soft and delicate but also bold and sexy when styled in different ways.

Bridgerton star Simone Ashley was seen rocking the sheer layering trend with an all-Fendi look on the cover of British Vogue.

The transparency of the sheer materials allows individuals to easily layer different fabrics underneath the clothing to create looks that are multifaceted and incorporate multiple pieces into one.

Utilitarian Details

Utilitarian fashion tends to be practical and functional since it draws inspiration from military uniforms and post-apocalyptic style.

Think of pockets everywhere, chunky belts, buckles, Carhartt jackets and cargo-wear and utilitarian wear will spring to mind.

This trend has been a fashion essential in the spring collections on the NYFW runway for brands like Valentino, Bottega, Chanel, Rejina Pyo, and Nensi Dojaka.

Most spring runways this season feature some format of lingerie as fashion whether it is solely underwear being on display or layered with other eccentric pieces to create statement looks.

Asymmetry

10 Spring_Summer 2023 Fashion Trends to Know - 7Asymmetric hems are nothing new in the fashion world, however, this Spring/Summer season will see a rise in this otherwise timeless trend.

An asymmetric hemmed piece will make a funky fashion statement in everyone’s wardrobes and will easily elevate an otherwise simple look.

Asymmetric pieces can come in a plethora of styles from angled hems giving clothing a bold shape to a softer less exaggerated asymmetric hem composed of a ruffle or softer sweep of the hem.

For instance, Khushi Kapoor, who will make her debut in The Archies, recently posted on Instagram in one variation of an asymmetric look wearing a deep purple mini dress that looked simply show-stopping.

This fashion trend perfectly expresses the freedom one can have with fashion with innovative geometry breaking away from the rigidness of symmetry.

At the Spring runways of Paco Rabanne, Dior and Dolce & Gabbana, the gothic grunge aesthetics dominated their collections, with the colour black taking form in transparent and voluminous outfits.

Celebrities like Liza Koshy have also been spotted taking gothic grunge to the red carpet as Liza was snapped wearing a black, vintage lace dress at the 2023 Golden Globes awards.

Tube dresses are back in a range of fabrics to express different styles from the sleek minimalistic effect of a satin tube dress to the slinky, casual appearance of jersey tube dresses.

A sheer tube dress was recently worn by Hailey Bieber as she posted a picture on Instagram wearing a sleek, sexy, sheer tube dress.
