Leopard is (almost) already over. It has been replaced by another trend that is already dressing princesses and queens around the world. Decryption.
After Barbie and the 2000s, what will be the trend for fall 2024? To find it, you have to go back more than 70 years and take inspiration from the style of the 50s. One thing is certain, after the leopard, it is another print that will become indispensable to fashionistas in the coming months. In truth, this pattern did not stay stuck in the 50s before landing in our wardrobes in 2024. In the meantime, it has dressed the most stylish crowned heads. From Lady Diana to Kate Middleton, including Letizia of Spain, queens and princesses from all over the world have worn it. In everyday life, it is by Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman that it was popularized in 1990. Stars Cate Blanchett, Cameron Diaz and Jane Fonda then definitively adopted it.
If this print is all the rage this season, it’s because it gives a sophisticated look to any garment. After the fun and offbeat trend of recent years, fashionistas are returning to chic and versatile looks that adapt to all situations. Sunny, jovial and softer than stripes or checks, it’s obviously polka dots.
Spotted in the new collections of Promod, Kiabi, Zara and Mango, polka dots are really everywhere. To wear them well, the easiest thing is to choose statement pieces. On a chic dress, a long skirt or a blouse? That’s it!
For the more timid, it is also perfectly possible to opt for a pair of tights, a handbag or even a small top topped with a plain leather jacket.
