It's almost time to put away our woolly jumpers and puffer coats, spring is just around the corner! And what better time than now to curate your wardrobe for the months ahead? When the sun finally shows up, you’ll want to step out in your freshest spring looks.
Spring/Summer 2025 is all about bold colours, sheer fabrics, and a playful mix of nostalgia and modern tailoring, think Y2K vibes, elevated basics, and plenty of fringe. Whether your wardrobe choices are trend-led or you prefer a more classic look, we have something for everyone this season.
Key pieces for an updated wardrobe
The spring outerwear hero
Let’s start with a classic - the trench coat. This iconic staple gets a refresh alongside slouchy menswear styles and sharp, peacoat-inspired designs. Already own a trench coat? Swap the usual camel colour for a rich navy or muted khaki to keep things fresh.
Now, you'll need something to go under that trench, right? Load up on the basics, wide-leg trousers, jeans or a midi dress. Pair those with a blouse or tee, layer on a sweater, and finish the look with this season’s trainers or boots – ankle and Chelsea boots are still trending — for a dressy style or trainers for a Saturday spent having brunch with friends.
Wide-leg trousers
Trousers are a good starting point for your spring outfits - designers are embracing wide-leg silhouettes, cargo styles, and relaxed tailoring for 2025. These easy-to-wear cuts give an instant update to any outfit, whether paired with a fitted tee or a structured blazer. The best part? They’re as comfortable as they are versatile, making them a wardrobe essential.
Fitted tops and wide-leg bottoms create the perfect base for layering. Add a trench, cropped blazer, or cardigan, then finish with boots or your favourite trainers for an effortlessly polished outfit. With looser fits taking over, belts are back. If your trousers have loops, tuck in your top and add a belt that complements the vibe.
Once you’ve nailed the silhouette, the styling options are limitless - easy, updated looks for day or night, sorted.
Layering meets the weather challenge
Layering isn’t just practical - it’s a style statement. Mixing textures, lengths, and fits lets you create dynamic outfits that adapt as the weather shifts. The key? Balancing pieces that add depth without weighing you down.
Cardigans and jumpers
Cardigans are having a moment this spring, from cropped, chunky knits to long, floor-length styles. Layer one over a blouse or tee, add a trench, and you’re set. Prefer something a bit more polished? Lightweight cotton or cashmere jumpers are perfect for those in-between days - easy to style and endlessly versatile.
Hoodies and sweatshirts
As the weather warms up, swap heavier knits for relaxed sweatshirts or hoodies. A crew neck sweatshirt adds a sporty edge to wide-leg trousers, while an oversized hoodie pairs effortlessly with leggings or midi skirts. Finish the look with colourful trainers or chunky sandals for an elevated take on casual comfort.
Coats and jackets
This season’s outerwear is all about balance - structured blazers, slouchy trench coats, and statement jackets are all in rotation. Leather and denim add an edge to feminine pieces, while bold prints and cropped styles keep things playful. Try a boxy leather jacket over a flowy dress with ankle boots for a perfect mix of tough and soft.
Dresses and skirts
Midi dresses are back again this season, striking the perfect balance between relaxed and polished. Pair your midi with a cardigan and trainers for an easy daytime look, then switch to a cropped jacket and boots for the evening.
Skirts are following suit, with hemlines dropping to midi and maxi lengths. Style a midi skirt like wide-leg trousers: balance the volume with a fitted or cropped top. And if spring throws a cold snap your way, keeping a pair of tights in your bag is a smart move.
The takeaway from the Spring 2025 runways? Style is personal, and rules are optional. With these versatile staples, you can create endless looks that feel authentically you.
