The Biggest Street Style Trends To Try For 2023

Predicting what will be trendy for the year ahead is often as simple as looking to the street style trends of the past few months — especially those popping up at global fashion weeks. While many of the trends of 2023 follow suit with what was seen in 2022, some bolder elements like playful textures and even larger cargo pants (with plenty of pockets) will likely mix things up this year. For 2023, expect oversized pants and jackets to continue to be the norm and pant suits and blazers to take on bolder prints. For shirts, crop tops and sheer fabrics will continue to offset those bigger wardrobe pieces, creating looks that are both powerful and playful simultaneously. While mini and micro mini skirts will still be popular, column midi skirts will also be stylish. Here are the biggest street style trends to watch (and maybe even try) for 2023.

Oversized Cargo Pants With Lots Of Pockets Will Be Everywhere

Here’s the good news — the cargo pants of 2023 aren’t the same ones you wore in the early 2000s. Instead of being ultra low rise, today’s cargo pants are high-waisted and thus more comfortable. For those really hoping to embody the trend, bonus points for as many pockets as possible. Expect to see cargo pants in every color — including pink — but the most common will be black, khaki, and olive green.

Bras Will Continue To Be Worn As Shirts

Who needs a shirt when they already have a bra? The answer for 2023 is no one needs a regular shirt. Bra tops will continue to be trendy. And, thanks to all those high-waisted pants out there, they’re way more modest than they sound — especially paired with a still stylish blazer. When choosing the right bra top, think satin, dark colors, and fun elements like body chains. After all, if you’re going to be bold enough to wear a bra as a shirt, you might as well go all out.

Blazers Will Still Be In Rotation — But With Some Extra Spice

Blazers aren’t new to 2023, they’ve been big for the last couple of years. Nonetheless, expect to see a wider range of prints versus the solid and often bold colors seen in 2022 and 2021. The style is still generally oversized and often paired with a crop or bra top underneath. It also wears well with oversized pants or a mini skirt depending on the mood and climate.

Crop Tops Will Be Worn With Everything

Cold weather? No problem. Crop tops are still popping up under oversized jackets and will likely continue their reign in popularity throughout 2023 and possibly beyond. Another nod to early 2000s fashion, crop tops have been big for the last few years. Athletic high-neck varieties add a sporty, athleisure vibe to any look.

Texture And Bold Elements Will Become Common

The desire to stand out will be part of what’s trending for 2023. Playing with color and texture is a great way to be on-trend for 2023 and also make a bold statement. The bolder the texture, the better.

Oversized Pants And Jackets Will Continue To Dominate

Oversized pants and jackets aren’t going anywhere in 2023. For pants, think wide leg and high waist. For jackets, everything from blazers to puffers are fair game as long as they’re big.

Sheer Tops Will Add Interest To Any Look

A great way to wear a bra top with a little more modesty is to layer it with a sheer blouse. Or, if you’re feeling really daring, skip the bra and just throw a blazer on top. Either way, sheer tops will be big in 2023.

Column Skirts Will Be Trendy

For those looking for something different than a mini skirt, column skirts make a great 0n-trend alternative. While they come in a variety of lengths, those hitting at the ankle are especially trendy for 2023.
