Lyst reveals the major brands and items of the second quarter of 2024

The Champion Reverse Weave technology has transformed sportswear, making it more innovative and functional.

Puma has established itself as the most durable sports giant, with a rich history behind the brand.

The Spring/Summer 2025 season promises vibrant colors, bold shapes, and original combinations that inspire self-expression and creativity.

Designers, following modern trends, offer not only classic silhouettes but also innovative solutions that reflect the spirit of the times.

This season focuses on strength and confidence, showcased through the use of muscular silhouettes, sheer fabrics, and bold combinations of outdoor wear with high fashion elements.

From fringes to romantic lace, fashion runways are filled with a variety of styles, allowing every woman to find something to suit her taste.

We have analyzed the fashion shows during Fashion Weeks in New York, London, Milan, and Paris, and compiled the key women's trends for the Spring/Summer 2025 season.

Combining Skirts and Pants

The combination of skirts with pants, popular in the Y2K era, is back in style, offering a fresh take on layering. Rokh recommends playing with contrasts by pairing structured black pants with a cream dress adorned with voluminous flowers, ribbons, and ruffles. In contrast, brands like Moschino, Jil Sander, and Giorgio Armani suggest combining clothing items of the same color and texture to achieve a cohesive ensemble.

Other brands showcasing this trend include Khaite, Duran Lantink, Bottega Veneta, Polo Ralph Lauren, Ambush, Monse, Fendi, and Courrèges.

70s Glamour

From Etro and Versace to Saint Laurent and Miu Miu, the runways of the Spring/Summer 2025 season were filled with glamour. Clearly referencing the fashion of the 1970s, many looks reflected the spirit of the decade through colors, textures, prints, and silhouettes. From flowing maxi dresses in muted tones to vibrant psychedelic patterns, the free-spirited charm of this era was reimagined with a modern twist, combining nostalgia with contemporary style.

Other brands embracing this trend include Valentino, Stella McCartney, Acne Studios, Dior, Gabriela Hearst, Bally, Bottega Veneta, Tibi, and Erdem.

Individualism and Personal Style

Women's collections clearly showed that personal style and individualism will reign supreme with the arrival of warm weather next year. One way to demonstrate this is by pairing classic outfits with seemingly incompatible jackets, especially sporty and tech-inspired ones. Shiny dresses from Prada, Brandon Maxwell, Rabanne, and Burberry were paired with contrasting outerwear such as nylon jackets and parkas with fur trim.

Other brands showcasing this trend include Miu Miu, Del Core, Zimmermann, Louis Vuitton, No.21, Coperni, and The Attico.

Soft Yellow Tones

Soft yellow hues made a comeback in various silhouettes on the runways. Whether in monochromatic outfits or as subtle accents, designers used this gentle color to bring warmth and lightness to their collections. The combination of textured fabrics and fringe details with the delicate yellow shade allowed brands like Balenciaga, Coperni, and Toteme to make a bold statement, while playing with the color's interplay with rich textures created a refined and dynamic aesthetic.

Other brands embracing this trend include Alexander McQueen, Fendi, Chanel, Prada, Loewe, Miu Miu, Louis Vuitton, Jil Sander, and Prabal Gurung.

Midi-Length Skirts and Dresses

If mini skirts have dominated the fashion scene in recent years, next spring, dresses and skirts with a "below the knee but above the ankle" length will take the spotlight. Acne Studios, Burberry, Prada, and Diesel showcased outfits featuring this trend. The main skirts of the season can vary significantly in style, from lightweight skirts made of semi-transparent fabrics and models adorned with sequins to asymmetric silhouettes and classic pencil skirts.

Other brands embracing this trend include 3.1 Phillip Lim, Brandon Maxwell, Victoria Beckham, Stella McCartney, Schiaparelli, Loewe, Erto, Marni, and JW Anderson.

Gothic Aesthetics

Despite attempts to escape reality by surrounding ourselves with all things pink and shiny, the news inevitably brings us back to earth. Reflecting this reality, dark shades in clothing and makeup, Victorian silhouettes, and large metallic accessories are taking over red carpets, films, and music videos. The fashion world is also responding to the growing popularity of a dark aesthetic, with models on the runways of Alexander McQueen, Balenciaga, Rick Owens, and Rodarte resembling gothic priestesses in black lace and patent leather.

Other brands embracing this trend include Undercover, KNWLS, Bally, Yohji Yamamoto, Christian Siriano, Richard Quinn, and Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood.

The Return of Checks

Although checks never go out of style and remain a classic print, they are experiencing a revival lately. For example, at the Acne Studios show, models walked the runway in plaid dresses, blazers, skirts, and shirts, presenting refined wardrobe staples perfect for everyday wear. The sacai collection featured checkered outfits complemented by transparent sequins. Other brands skillfully incorporating checks into their shows include Chopova Lowena and Ralph Lauren.

Other brands embracing this trend include Coach, Tod's, Bottega Veneta, Tommy Hilfiger, Emporio Armani, Diesel, Chanel, The Row, and Valentino.

Stripes

Whether thick or thin, horizontal or vertical, black and white or colorful, stripes have become another classic print actively used on the runways. Stripes appeared on everything from sharply tailored blazers to wide-leg trousers and structured dresses. Designers played with proportions and fabric choices (sacai, Fendi, Casablanca) and experimented with layering by combining multiple types of stripes in one outfit (Rabanne).
