I was recently lucky enough to spend a few weeks in Europe, stopping first in the United Kingdom before heading to the South of France. I spent my first week in London, a city that is always fun for a fashion observer like myself. The style in London is much more polished, especially compared to California, where we tend to have a more relaxed take on fashion. I love walking around the city and taking in all the street style, noting the more refined way of dressing that feels both quintessentially British and right on the pulse of current trends.
I noticed a few summer trends London fashion people have fallen particularly hard for, spotting the same handful of pieces all over the city. While the unpredictable London weather plays a role in which trends take off, certain summer styles marry seamlessly with the city’s elevated aesthetic. TikTok’s favorite quiet-luxury trend, for example, is just normal style in the UK’s capital. Like every transatlantic visit, I returned from my trip feeling inspired to introduce some of London’s favorite trends into my everyday wardrobe. And since London’s weather is a bit cooler than California’s, most of these are items I can wear straight through fall. From tailored trousers to summer’s prettiest shoe style, these are the six best London trends to add to your wardrobe.
