New inspiration from the Big Apple! New York Fashion Week is officially over, but we’re far from checking off the latest creations from the fashion metropolis. We followed the shows closely for you and identified four trends that will accompany us in spring/summer 2024.
Oversized becomes micro: New York celebrates cropped blazers
Last season’s oversized, boxy, ’80s-inspired blazers are shrinking to mini size next spring and summer. Cropped blazers dominate the current catwalks in New York. At Flying Solo, gunmetal sequins give the cropped silhouette a disco vibe. Sergio Hudson uses a classic houndstooth pattern in his presentation and Christian Siriano shows the short version of the modern throw in metallic colors.

Regardless of the texture, this trend is all about what’s underneath: Instead of wearing a T-shirt or blouse, the designers simply let their models walk down the catwalk topless or with a matching bra.
This trend is taking us straight to trend heaven: corsets
Bye bye mesh inserts, hello lacing. It seems as if the designers at Fashion Week have drawn on ideas from the Renaissance, as hardly anything can currently be found on the runway as often as corsets. Palomo Spain’s creations were inspired by early 19th-century styles, while Dion Lee added a touch of the 1920s with nude corsets.
New York is leading the way, we’re following suit: corsets will be on the style agenda in 2024.

If you like things a little more relaxed, you might be impressed by Jason Wu’s designs. The characteristic lacing elements can be found there in bodies, shoes and even jeans.

Flowers are back – but more extreme than ever
Floral prints are not uncommon in spring and summer collections. Year after year, floral patterns remain stubbornly in our wardrobes. And why not? After all, what goes better with spring feelings than a cheerful flower print. It will therefore be difficult to keep flowers off the hit list in 2024, but they will be bigger, shriller and more colorful than ever. No matter whether Carolina Herrera, Michael Kors, KGL, Phillip Lim, Ralph Lauren or Bronx and Banco: The designers at New York Fashion Week show that floral patterns can definitely give up their lovely image and inspire with flower power in neon colors, XL applications or expressive color mix.
Flowers will continue to be one of the fashion industry’s favorites this coming spring, as can be seen on Carolina Herrera’s catwalk.

Very promising! The V-neck is heartwarming
Highly closed or would you rather provide deep insights? We’re currently looking a little more at the V-neck, because it definitely couldn’t be overlooked in New York. On the catwalk, the plunging neckline reaches almost to the navel and can be seen primarily in conjunction with maxi dresses at Bevza, Dennis Basso and Falguni Shane Peacock. Admittedly, it takes a little courage to create the extra deep “V”. But the trend is wonderfully feminine and therefore perfect for the coming summer. We recommend picking up some chest tape if you’re replicating the trend at home next season, but we promise: You’ll quickly grow to love the elegant V-neck silhouette.
Bevza leads the way: The super deep V-neck is one of the hottest trends of the season in 2024.
