This summer, fashion trends are bringing home the classic feminine styles we have all missed. After all, nothing can rival the charms of a woman whose fashion sense leans towards elegance, sophistication, femininity, respect, and hope.

With trends that promise styles that pay tribute to the 90s, the focus is more on clean minimalism, less outrageousness, and more intelligence. If you have been looking for outfits that are a product of the intelligence of the current era and the classiness of the past, there’s a lot in store for you.

This year, designers like Diarra Bousso (founder of the contemporary lifestyle brand, DIARRABLU), are unleashing their creativity to repurpose the fashion world. We are going to see more whimsical, coastal, flowing, and chic outfits. That said, if you found it hard to part with your favorites from yesteryear, now’s the time to re-use, remake and recycle your treasures, all while remaining fashion-forward.

Let’s look at the top summer “back-to-classic femininity” trends for this year:

Boyfriend Jackets with Oversized Shoulder Pads

We’re taking inspiration from the 90s by going back to creating long-line silhouettes with oversized jackets, blazers, and shirts for the summer. For example, you can amp up your boyfriend jacket with shoulder pads and cinch the outerwear around your waist.

This baggy look for the top will pair with just about anything for the summer, from denim shorts to straight-leg trousers. Regardless, you will look ultra-modern and classically feminine with this trend.

Besides, imagine all that extra breathing space the baggy style will give you when you’re sweating it off at work. Hard to resist, right?

Flare Dresses

If you’re a “girly-girl” you’ll probably never get over the sophistication and glamour of flare dresses. And thankfully, this summer, this trend is coming back. Look at the Mila Dress by Muehleder, for example. In a vibrant shade of yellow, this flared, ultrafeminine dress will make it difficult for women to stop twirling around daintily.

Arte Blanc

Fashion is a form of self-expression, and designer Diarra Bousso’s collection for this summer is a testimony of it. Let your creativity take control of your fashion forwardness. The best way to do it is with an outfit like the Mailys Dress by DIARRABLU.

It features a convertible design so that you can wrap it in a multitude of layers. Here we see how refined elasticized waistlines with flowing skirts (such as featured in the video below) will be a top trend.

Wrap Dresses

If you want to look classy, sophisticated, elegant, and chic all in one this summer, then opt for wrap dresses with wide flowing bell sleeves. Here is another top trend from the 90s making a comeback.

Grab the best of this look for this summer, by taking inspiration from DIARRABLU’s Baol Teal wrap dress. You can put together several outfits like this one from your wardrobe.

Balloon Sleeves

None of us are unfamiliar with this popular theme, and we’re glad it’s trending this summer too. You can play with oversized puffy sleeves and shoulders for a fashionable variation of everyone’s favorite. Inject exaggerated volume in your tops and dresses with more puffiness and gathers. Our best suggestion for this look is a plain white dress with puffy balloon sleeves and jazzy accessories.

For this look, take inspiration from designs by Aje as well as M. M. Lafleur.

Palazzo Pants

Staying true to breezy, whimsical flowing trends are palazzo pants. They’re the best pick for all your summer outings this year and pair beautifully with wrap-around tops with a cinched waist. Be sure to check out styles by fashion brand, Ooshie.
