What will we wear next year? 10 Main Trends for the Spring-Summer 2026 Season

This week brought an almost month-long fashion marathon to an end. During this time, we managed to look at more than a hundred shows, go on a digital journey in the main fashion capitals, follow the main designer releases and cope with the difficult task of telling about the most important thing without missing anything. Now it’s time to analyze the catwalk images and determine the trends of the next spring summer season. The 10 main trends of 2026 were collected in our material.

It’s embarrassing when you’re not visible

Trend: cup top

One of next season’s most obvious trends is the crop top, which we saw from Pierpaolo Piccioli in Balenciaga’s debut collection and on Chloé’s catwalk and the Alaïa show. In fact, there were many more cropped tops—Tagwalk’s analysts collected more than 200 images from one Paris fashion week alone. By the way, interpretations of the crop top are completely different: some designers rely on minimalism, others on geometry, others on color, and the fourth on texture.

Trend: eaves

Another important place in the list of trends for the third year in a row is a fringe. Alaïa is fond of designer teams from Balmain, Chanel, Dior, Loewe, Gabriela Hearst, Lanvin and many other brands. By the way, the interpretation of the trend is different for everyone, but we were most impressed by Loewe’s “drilling” skirts by Jack McCallou and Lazaro Ernandes.

Trend: yellow

The color yellow is quickly catching up with the fashion industry. If last season there was a butter shade in trend, now the design workshop offers to use the entire palette. For example, we see images of a bright lemon color in the Ferragamo show, in Tod’s show, in a mustard shade, and in the Versace Dario Vitale-A-gentle yellow dress collection.

Trend: ruffle

Despite the global trend for minimalism, designers are increasingly using ruffles and ruffles in images. This season, the emphasis is definitely on the first, and we give lukes from shows by Chanel, Alaïa, Balenciaga, Givenchy, Louis Vuitton, McQueen and Miu Miu as proof.

even shorter

Trend: Micro-Shortes and Skirts

Maxi, MIDI and even mini length is no longer surprising. For several seasons in a row, the Design Workshop has been voting in favor of Micro’s dangerous length. On the catwalk, we see very short shorts (in the spirit of the main icon Anghelishka Zumers) and low-cut skirts. Most importantly, we connected with Prada, Fendi, MSGM, Conner Ives and Dilara Findikoglu.

Trend: multilayer

One of the main trends of Milan Fashion Week is the whimsical layering. For example, at the Boss Show, we are offered to wear two shirts at once, at the Dolce & Gabbana show, we see a combination of a lace T-shirt with a classic shirt and a jacket, but we notice a style “POLO + divers” in the air from the Ferragamo collection.

Get it Below

Trend: Articulated displaced line

But one of the key observations of New York Fashion Week was an unexpected twist on the usual proportions. In the collections of Prabal Gurung, Altuzarra and Calvin Klein Collection, designers experiment with the position of the waistline and reduce it to just below the usual level. Most often, this is done with the help of a belt on trenches, coats or dresses. In general, the trend can be easily repeated at home.

like a figurine

Trend: high collar

This season, it turns out that London designers are obsessed with high necklines (apparently the weather still dictates the rules). Moreover, they are used not only in everyday images, but also in the evening. A striking example is Dara Findikoglu, Erdem and Edeline Lee. However, our personal form-favorite appeared in the Nanushka Show-A satin jacket, a milky tone with a collar stand and double zipper.

a serious

Trend: skin

Every autumn, leather goods return to fashion: jackets, vests, shirts, trousers or trenches. And if last year the ball ruled AYTEMS from the older skin, this season the classic took part. As in the shows of Boss, Bottega Veneta, Fendi, Ferragamo and Gucci. By the way, in the case of this trend, you can safely focus on a podium – it is most relevant for everyday life.

Horizontal and vertical?

Trend: strips

A stripe print has long been a classic, but it will be especially relevant next season. Moreover, the strip can be very different: thin or thick, horizontal or vertical, solid color or very bright.
