Spring 2023 Fashion Trends: What to Expect

Greek Goddess Vibes

As the flowers bloom and the sun heats up, it’s time to update our wardrobes for spring. When it comes to fashion, spring is the perfect time for new beginnings and fresh starts. I always love spring trends because they introduce us to the fashion themes of the new year. So, what can we expect to see in stores for spring 2023 and the remainder of the year?

In this article, we’re focusing on those spring trends you’ll want in your everyday wardrobe. The runways for spring 2023 showed lots of striking pieces, like lingerie-vibes and ultra-wide hip silhouettes. While these are beautiful on the runway, they might not be the most feasible when you’re going to work or hitting the grocery store. So, here are my top seven spring 2023 fashion trends you’ll actually want to incorporate into your aesthetic this spring.

Fringe fashion

For spring 2023 fashion, we’re seeing fresh takes on styles you already know and love, like fringe and polka dots. Carried over from fall and winter 2022, fringe is a fun texture that has invaded the runways for spring 2023.

Fringe is perfect for spring because it’s light, airy, and bohemian. It brings movement and texture to any outfit and is an easy go-to if you want to add some visual intrigue to your look.

Rock the trend this spring 2023 with a fringe skirt, crisp white button-down, and cute sandals or white sneakers for a laid-back, festival-inspired look.

Or add a fringe blouse to dress up a casual look.

Greek Goddess vibes

Ethereal, inspiring pieces are nothing new, especially post-lockdown when women yearned for beautiful, escapist pieces. But this 2023 spring, we’re seeing the “Greek goddess” trend even more prominently. This is a romantic, feminine style meant to channel your inner goddess.

This is the perfect aesthetic for spring because it’s lightweight and carefree, and it pairs well with other trends on this list, like rosette details and watercolors.

Glow-up into the goddess you are with a flowing maxi dress with a pair of gladiator sandals.

Add subtle, minimalist jewelry for an enchanting look or layer statement pieces for something bold and exotic.

The goddess look is all about flowing, draping pieces that create a stunning feminine silhouette.

Rosette detailing

The spring season always shows florals, but we’re seeing a spin on this classic style this year. Rosettes are small, circular embellishments that look like a rose made of fabric.

These are common in chiffon and lace, creating a playful and flirtatious aesthetic.

Watercolor

Watercolors are a gorgeous trending print for 2023. They’re a beautiful way to make a subtle statement, especially if you like to channel your creative side. Watercolor prints are characterized by soft, flowing lines and delicate, blend-able shades.

I love that watercolor patterns naturally add color to your wardrobe without having to worry about mixing and matching different colors and pieces.

Slips for every occasion

Slip dresses have become the new LBD (although the little black dress is also still the little black dress). Slips fit in perfectly with the idea of elevated basics, and we’re seeing a lot of different silhouettes come on the scene, from cute minis to feminine midis to flowing maxis.

Slip dresses are made of silky, lightweight fabrics that allow for the perfect amount of movement. They generally have a form-fitting silhouette without being tight or constricting.

Slip dresses can work for any season or occasion. Wear them over a turtleneck for those unexpected chilly spring days …

Polka dot princess

Polka dots are the hot pattern for spring 2023. Dots were especially prominent on the Burberry, Saint Laurent, and Marni runways, each with their own take on this classic print.

Polka dots may be a hot trend right now, but they’re also a timeless investment for a playful closet. (Fun fact: the first mention of polka dots was in 1857!)

Opt for big, bold polka dots for a daring vibe…

Shining metallics

Many high-end designers like Gucci and Balenciaga are infusing shiny metallics into this spring’s looks. They’re transforming classic silhouettes with silvery, siren-like metallics and sequins to create spring pieces that work just as beautifully for day as they do for night.

Add dimension to your look with metallic accents, like the subtle sheen on these pants.

I love that each trend on this list is timeless in its own way. That means you’ll be able to wear and re-wear these pieces for years to come, which is good for your wallet, good for your closet, and good for the earth.
