The 'new normal' has taken effect in the country as we observe a "smart lockdown" with other aspects getting used to the different lifestyle changed by the onset of the novel coronavirus.
Usually, we are accustomed to the summer season being all about who wore what? How and where? This year due to the circumstances, we see the typical trends have taken a turn as well, more focused in a home-centric environment as social outings are at an indefinite standstill.
We look at a few trends which have emerged this season, what's considered "in fashion" now? Let's see:
Fruity Trends
This season has been all about the heat wave, incorporating hydrating formulas into the summer routine, including fruity face-masks, perfumes, nail makeovers, makeup, fashion, you name it! The fresh aesthetic is what it's about with make up inspired by seasonal fruits, such as watermelons, cherries, kiwi, and mangoes!
Pastels & Florals
Pastels and bright pinks, yellows, green and baby blues are in for the summer! Be it sundresses, kurtis, shirts or whole outfits put together; we've noticed the seasonal trend of presenting in pastel, with floral allure. Since we may not get to go on vacation, we improvise! Whether it be through our makeup choices or fashion and accessories, we make the most of the holidays with inspired taste!
Celebrities are donning cool & airy summer fashion looks, with bright flowery motifs true to the summer aesthetic.
Staycation Accessories
We've deduced that this season welcomes comfortable fashion with a trendy twist! We've seen the denim looks and assessed the stylish florals, but it's time to determine what accessories will brighten up your look. From floppy hats, panama hats, sun-hats and fedoras are all in for the summer, perfect for gender neutral fashion as well as sun protection.But you can't do summer chic without a handbag, and this season is all about the woven purses and totes!
