From metallic sneakers to '90s sheer slip dresses, here's what you need for the season.
Every year, the first few days of summer feel eternal and unfamiliar. There’s a sense that the season will never end but also that it’s never existed; like none of us have ever felt the humid air sticking to our freckled sunburnt skin. That sense of newness seems to always apply to our wardrobes, too. The perfect summer outfit is more of a feeling than a trend, and it’s one we want to try to capture before the season is really in full swing.

There’s an obsession with ‘90s minimalism that hasn’t faded, as well a newfound unapologetic love of sheer garments. But there’s also lots of other things people seem to be shopping like metallic footwear, moto-inspired leather separates and bright, colorful dresses. Ahead, shop the top six summer trends of 2023.
“For sure, special specs,” says Abba, when trying to decide on the very first summer 2023 trend that comes to mind. “In the eyewear space, brands like
