7 Spring 2026 Fashion Trends Vogue Editors Are Already Shopping

It may feel strange to visualize warm-weather style when it’s just reaching the frigid apex, but spring will be here sooner than you think, and since we’re in the business of looking ahead, we’re already deep in thought about what’s to come. Our fashion trend report showcased a variety of themes for next season, which we’re unpacking and decoding in own ways, below.

Let’s start with color: springy palettes (and their coordinating combinations) offer a tangible way to translate runway trends to a wardrobe. Next season’s lean rich and strong—think mint green and powder pink, deep reds and navy blues, as well as emerald tones, such as royal purple and moss green. Spring’s many texture interventions—fringe, fuzz, and frothy lace—bring movement to clothes, while collected treasures (in the form of heirloom pendant necklaces and sculptural jewelry) add depth to top the looks off.

The overarching mood is wearable yet personable—pile on the textures, play with layering, and go big with proportions, however you desire. For us, it’s starts with the seven spring 2026 trends, below.

Modern Layering

“When the spring collections drop in February, there is still a chill in the air, for Spring, I can’t wait to layer (and de-layer!) when the weather allows. Louise Trotter at Bottega did this best, playing with tailoring, knitwear, and color to create these effortless yet styled combinations.” —Libby Page, executive commerce director

Pillow Talk

“Ethereal, soft, lightweight, and airy—I’m looking forward to wearing pieces that are as comfortable as pajamas, but as sculptural as statues. Nothing screams, “chic and unbothered,” quite like a head-to-boot all-white ensemble, I guess Pantone had some points.” —Cortne Bonilla, senior shopping writer

Fringe Benefits

“Fringe can be overly bohemian, feathers dramatically festive, but context is everything, and there’s a way to make both feel sleek and mature. Bottega and Fforme proved it by keeping the styling minimal, contrasting these more expressive pieces with sharp tailoring and flip-flops. I am taking notes!” — Talia Abbas, shopping director

Found Treasures

“I might be looking way, way ahead, but I love the idea of incorporating high summer accessories in a winter wardrobe. Why not pair a string of shells with a tailored coat? Or a citrine cord pendant with an oversized cashmere knit? It’s these offbeat pairings that feel witty and fresh—Tory always gets it right.” —Talia Abbas, shopping director

Hannah Jackson

“Switch up your go-to trousers with a pair of airy balloon pants. While they feel like an extension of the ongoing boho trend, Altuzarra and Greta Constantine offered two more interpretations that can liven up both your workwear and off-duty ’fits. Create some sartorial tension with leather or a graphic tee—or go the traditional Chloé-approved route in a lace-trimmed top.” —Hannah Jackson, fashion writer

Scarf Dressing

“Scarf dressing reaches new heights for spring, as seen at Celine and Kallmeyer. No longer an afterthought, the printed foulard scarf becomes the crux of a modern wardrobe—worn as top, tied with intention at the waist or neck, and scaled up in bold prints.” —Andrea Zendejas, shopping market editor

Fresh Color Combos

“Bold, vibrant hues dominated the spring/summer runways—from Bottega Veneta to Versace and Jil Sander where they were often styled in unexpected pairings. These confident color combinations breathed new life into classic silhouettes, proving there’s no such thing as a wrong mix this season: opt for subtle pastels reminiscent of spring florals, or lean into striking contrasts guaranteed to turn heads.” —Minty Mellon, shopping market editor
