Street style offers an unfiltered look at how real people are interpreting the latest runway trends. In both London and Sydney, street fashion has become the ultimate testing ground for what’s next. Here are seven standout street-style trends shaping wardrobes this year.
1. Checks & Plaids
Checks dominate in skirts, trousers, oversized coats, and matching sets. Whether bold or tonal, they’re making everyday outfits feel curated.
2. Suede & Textured Outerwear
From suede bombers to shearling-trimmed jackets, textured outerwear is defining transitional dressing in both markets.
3. Socks with Heels
Pairing socks with heeled shoes is a quirky styling detail gaining traction in London, and starting to appear elsewhere as a bold accessory choice.
4. Cap Sleeves & Sculpted Tops
Cap sleeves and puffed shoulders are giving a structured, feminine twist to casual dressing, perfect for warmer climates.
5. Sporty Motifs
Track jackets, stripes, and active-inspired detailing are blurring the lines between sportswear and everyday fashion.
6. Neutral Tones
Khaki, sand, and earthy tones are the base palette for layering, creating sleek monochrome looks.
7. Statement Accessories
From oversized belts to minimalist rings, accessories are turning simple outfits into eye-catching ensembles.
