admin Years from now, when a new generation of kids wants to “dress like 2023,” what sort of objects will they look at? May this wrap-up be but a humble guide for them. While it’s true that the death of trends has been wildly exaggerated, the rise of micro-trend in their stead can make it harder to pinpoint more specific fashion trends. Harder—but not impossible, and although the objects featured here may seem hodge-podge in nature, they do seem to tell us something about ourselves at this point in time (likely that our lives are guided by chaos).
Except for a few items of clothing, the year belonged to accessories; and especially statement shoes, that, in keeping with our post-pandemic model, continue to prioritize comfort over anything else. The list also shows how essential—and influential— celebrity culture remains. From Lionel Messi’s sold-out Inter Miami jersey (which goes hand in hand with the soccer fever currently taking over fashion), to the Chanel sunglasses worn by Lily Rose Depp’s character in The Idol (the show may have lasted just five episodes, but its fashion influence shall remain eternal!); to Britney Spears’s memoir The Woman In Me, which surely delivered Addison Rae’s most iconic fashion moment this year. Read through to find out the 15 items that defined 2023 fashion trends.
