Florals are always in vogue but this year, they are one fashion trend that will make a statement, particularly in the summers.
However, while pretty flowery prints can really improve your overall look, it can be quite tricky to carry it off tastefully. You need to know which floral prints to opt for every season and how much would be too much. Well, you don’t need to look any further for your floral inspirations this season because you have come to the right place!
Floral Shorts
Shorts are a summer essential and pairing them with a simple plain t-shirt or even a button down or a tank top means that you are all geared up for a hot summer day! Floral shorts are all the rage this season. However, if you are thinking of making a purchase, then skip the high waist ones, as they are on their way out of style. Avoid the temptation of taking up discounted products as well, and instead opt for something more casual and chic, like the shorts donned by Kalki Koechlin here.
The Tomboyish Look
Decades ago, it was the guys donning floral, and now it is time for the ladies to adapt a tomboyish look in floral prints. Floral printed separates were all the rage at the fashion weeks this year, with designers like Tibi, Alexis Mabille and Givenchy offering tailored pants with blazers in funky flowery prints to introduce the new trend.
Sunglasses
Sunglasses are a summer essential like no other. And designers this year have dared you to wear bold and catchy sunglasses. If you still haven’t heard, cat eyes are the shape of the season. Look for cat eyes with sophisticated or bold floral frames, depending on your own style preferences that help you embrace nature this season.
Abstract Floral Prints
Florals don’t have to be nice and pretty and safe. You can also go bold with floral patterns. Abstract floral designs are all the rage this season. Abstract floral designs add drama and depth. Jason Wu, Calving Klein and Burberry Prorsum are among some of the designers that launched flair maxis, mini dresses with bare shoulders and even cropped pants in their versions of floral abstracts.

Whether you opt for a mini dress, a pair of shorts a skirt or cropped pants, they will be a good long term investment.
