Spring and summer – a time of renewal, lightness and… predictable fashion trends? No way! The spring-summer 2025 season breaks all stereotypes. While we were already mentally trying on floral dresses, fashion radars recorded the emergence of trends that no one was expecting. They are bold, sometimes strange, but they will definitely capture our attention and the streets of cities. Especially for you, I have highlighted 5 of the most unexpected fashion trends that will burst into our lives very soon. We bet you couldn’t even think of this?
1. Culottes
They appeared relatively unexpectedly, but are sure to become one of the strongest trends of summer 2025, along with Bermuda shorts and palazzo pants. Versatile culottes are the new must-have in every fashionista’s wardrobe. Loose and stylish, they are not too long and not too short and are suitable for a variety of occasions – from classic office looks to weekend outfits. This year, culottes will be at the peak of popularity as a trend of the summer season.
What makes culottes special is their wide, geometric line that draws attention to the ankles and allows the flowing fabrics to really pop. However, in their more structured version, they become an even bolder and more eye-catching wardrobe staple.
2. Loafers and long socks
Although loafers are considered a timeless classic that adds elegance to any look, they are regularly controversial. Their combination with long socks has been particularly discussed. In the past, open-toed shoes were associated with school uniforms and caused a mixed reaction in the fashion world.
In the 90s, they were sometimes worn with black tights and oversized sweaters. Compared to ripped jeans or lingerie-style dresses, this style looked more rebellious. At that time, loafers were not considered a fashion trend, they were practical and comfortable.
In search of new aesthetic solutions, loafers and oxfords paired with high socks were a revelation. Without unnecessary hype, but with attention to detail, they opened the door to experimenting with the “anti” style. Without a doubt, this was just the beginning of what would later be called the ugly shoe trend. This duo became a favorite among many celebrities and again included loafers in the list of trendy shoes, including for spring-summer 2025.
3. Suede jackets
Make a suede jacket the centerpiece of your look, because it is the perfect spring jacket for 2025. The 70s style is at its peak of popularity, as is its integral part – suede jackets. And this is definitely a must-have in our wardrobe this season. Suede with its soft matte texture and a hint of nostalgia for the seventies will become a must-have element in our look.
When creating a stylish look, it’s important to make the blazer the focal point. For example, pair a camel-colored suede jacket with a soft printed dress to create a casual and feminine look that’s perfect for the office on an April morning.
In 2025, you can and should combine different textures. If you choose a fringed jacket, be sure to complement it with more discreet details to make the look harmonious. For minimalists: a suede jacket in neutral tones will be a great addition to any capsule wardrobe.
4. Jeans with cuffs
You’ve probably noticed this trend or maybe even tried it yourself: cuffed jeans are back in fashion and can be seen on the streets. If we take a closer look at street style looks, we’ll see why cuffed jeans are not only super casual, but also incredibly practical.
Cuffs save us from having to shorten jeans manually or resort to clothing fitting. In a situation with changeable spring weather, cuffs on jeans become a particularly relevant option, suitable for any situation. And they also give our image a certain originality, especially in the spring and summer of 2025.
Rolled-up jeans certainly draw attention to your shoes, so choosing the right one is especially important. While some stylists use this style of jeans to show off high heels, elegant mules or trendy sneakers, others prefer to highlight accessories such as colored or white tennis socks. Those who value a stylish look can combine rolled-up jeans with voluminous loafers or Cossacks.
5. Polka dot blouses
If you’re a little tired of last year’s boldest trend, leopard print, then you might like the trendiest pattern of spring and summer 2025 – polka dots.
Polka dots are a charming pattern that always attracts attention. When you think of classic trends that everyone loves but are not so popular right now, everyone immediately thinks of polka dots. And now, finally, the classics are becoming a fashionable trend of the season again.
Spectacular polka dot blouses are already in many collections and should definitely be a part of your wardrobe. This season, polka dots are back, radiating sophistication and style. The combination of contrasting colors and feminine silhouettes of blouses with bow ties makes them especially attractive.
