5 Months Into 2023, These Are the Trends That Are Fleeting While These Will Stay

While I’m a huge proponent of wearing what feels right, regardless of outside chatter, I completely understand the allure of following a great fashion trend. And because constant and ever-revolving trends are the current reality of the fashion landscape, it can be hard to keep a finger on the pulse of what’s considered "in” at the moment. Either way, you can rest easy knowing you can always turn to our editors for insider tips on what to keep an eye out for.
If you’re looking to add a few fresh trends to your outfit rotation this season, there are some stylish pieces worth considering. Think cool summer bags, elevated blazers, "naked” dresses, and more. Ahead, peruse five of the current top fashion trends that are here to stay (for now), plus check out some outfit inspiration for how to pull off each trend.
Fleeting: Dresses With Cutouts
Staying: Sheer Dresses
And just like that, sheer dresses have taken over everything from our Instagram feeds to the red carpet. Whether you want subtle paneling or something more revealing, varying degrees of sheerness are available.
Fleeting: Satin Flats
Staying: Mesh Flats
Mesh flats are popping up everywhere. There are more minimal options from designer labels like The Row and statement styles with rhinestone embellishments.
Fleeting: Mini Bags
Staying: Relaxed Totes
While mini bags will always be pertinent for elevated occasions, we've seen a shift toward larger bags for everyday use. For summer, we're also seeing bags in seasonal woven materials. There are plenty of options ranging from bright colors to classic natural tones.
Fleeting: Oversize Blazers
Staying: Cinched-Waist Blazers
Cinched-waist blazers are back in the spotlight thanks to the cool hourglass silhouette they help to create. Wear one with everything from your favorite dresses to your go-to jeans.
Fleeting: Denim Maxi Skirts
Staying: Maxi Skirts
While maxi skirts reign supreme this season, denim maxi skirts have suddenly become supersaturated. I recommend opting for a '90s-inspired style in other materials like cotton or silk for a look with a little more longevity.
