When summer hits, my entire aesthetic shifts. The person who lives in head-to-toe black quietly melts away, and suddenly, my inner Parisian makes an entrance, which means my usual neutral palette gives way to white linen, romantic lace and floaty silhouettes. And it appears I'm not alone.

Per my usual daily routine of scrolling various social media platforms I soon began seeing a pattern. Initially I spotted fashion person Lucy Williams wearing a French-adjacent top trend I couldn’t believe I’d overlooked: a lace camisole. Delicate, nostalgic and gloriously chic, the moment I saw the image, I knew this wasn’t just a fleeting post, but a top I needed to know more about.

Fashion person Lucy Williams wears a white cotton lace camisole top, blue denim shorts she is carrying a raffia bag and 90s sunnies. In the photo she is sat on a wall in a image taken from her Instagram recently.

Now I appreciate this isn't a new trend as such—lace camisoles have been around for a while—but in place of traditional silk and satin, fresher cotton styles are coming through with intricate, ruffled lace trims around the border, symmetrical pleating and the tiny buttons, all of which feel elegantly elevated and distinctly French.

Why is it so relevant now? Well, the lace camisole trend plays on the rise of lingerie-inspired silhouettes, a look that’s turned mainstream in recent years thanks to shows like The Buccaneers and Bridgerton, where frills, lace and corsetry are constantly on display. Having moved beyond its ’90s minimalist phase and the slinky aesthetic favoured by Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie in the noughties (see: The Simple Life), 2025's lace camisole has been reimagined in line with our infatuation with classic-looking pieces. Its ability to tap into a romantic feel without feeling too sweet or saccharine is another part of its charm; what's more, there's been a steady spike in Google searches for lace camisoles in recent days, so I know it's definitely a "thing".

Fashion person Makenna wears the white lace camisole trend, white capri trousers, buckled ballet flats and carries a white Chanel hobo bag. She is stood in a hotel bedroom and is lent against a wall in a image taken from her Instagram recently.

As for styling them, it couldn't be easier. Pair with a white or black capri trouser for an elegant take—mesh ballet flats or sandals are all you need for a polished finish. Or, if you're looking to for something slightly more relaxed, jeans or denim shorts will benefit from the lace camisole's pretty mood—just add a thong or fisherman sandal.
