Of the 2024 fashion trends below, which style is your favorite?
Temporary “gentle” style
Born on TikTok, the phrase “very serious, very gentle, very demure” became a brilliant viral slogan in late summer 2024, in response to the previous months of “very unruly playfulness”

Originating from the meaning of “discreet, modest, reserved”, this trend operates on the concept of simplicity, naturalness and not forcing. After a summer of daring disruption, modesty is headed in the opposite direction and will influence the style of the colder months with new rules.
Ballet style, dance – Balletcore
From tulle skirts to leotards to leggings, at a certain time of year, dance attire has become perfect for ultra-trendy outfits. Balletcore is the 2024 trend that brings dance into your wardrobe. The connection between dance and fashion has always been strong, and even the spring/summer 2024 collections are filled with references to the world of ballet. Tulle dresses, bodysuits, leggings, ballet skirts are back in trend for super cool outfits.
Sweet, shy style – Coquette
A gentle, vaguely romantic fashion style but with a nostalgic aftertaste because it reminds of childhood innocence. Since 2022 when Nia, or @dollclubxo on TikTok, began describing the birth of the “coquette” aesthetic: it’s not just a matter of clothes but also of attitude. “I would say glamor is definitely about fashion choices but also about how you carry yourself and your personality. We can summarize another strong trend of the year, style fashion seductive, it evokes fringing, lace, pastels and everything sophisticated and glamorous you can imagine.”
Rustic country fashion style – Cottagecore
Inspired by rural life, it makes you think of life in the countryside with green pastures. In fact, it is the ultimate romanticization of simple life, amid floral prints, embroidery, bows and other details that brings us back to a more mundane reality.
