Spring Summer 2027 Paris Fashion Week Trends and How to Wear Them
Published on 21/10/2026Every season, the fashion month closes — and peaks — at the end of Paris Fashion Week, which is one of the most exciting, glamorous and highly anticipated fashion events in the world. As such, the trends spotted on the runways of Paris are very likely to become real-life trends that you would be wearing in just a few months. In this article, we will detail five recurring trends that have appeared in the Spring Summer 2027 shows of several fashion houses. We will also offer useful styling tips on how to wear these trends for different occasions.
Animal Print
While animal prints are generally associated with the fall-winter season, they have been spotted multiple times during the Spring Summer 2027 Paris fashion week, such as on the runways of Weinsanto, Balmain and Dries Van Noten. However, these striking patterns have been used in smaller doses as accents, rather than as full statement looks. It is also important to note that each animal print influences the mood of an outfit in different ways — for instance, leopard print has a warmer, more playful energy while snake print looks sleeker and more polished.
For the Office
You can introduce animal prints into your work looks through your accessories. Pair leopard-print heels with a neutral-toned outfit — such as an oversized trench coat in stone gray, belted at the waist and worn as a dress — so the shoes act as the only print in the outfit. We recommend wearing one animal print at a time to keep your outfit understated, sophisticated and suitable for formal-leaning workplaces. Choose clothes in black, cream, camel and gray, as they are the perfect bases for striking animal prints.
For a Night Out
A bolder look featuring more than one animal print is a perfect option for a night out. Consider pairing a bag in one print with shoes in another, keeping both prints within the same color family (e.g. brown and beige). By doing so, the resulting ensemble would look creative yet intentional, rather than busy or mismatched.

Sharp Blazers with Soft Skirts
Fashion editors have dubbed this contrasting look “soft tailoring” — putting a sharp jacket or blazer together with a soft, draped skirt creates an interesting mix of structure and movement. This visually pleasing trend showed up on the runways of Dior, Schiaparelli and Dries Van Noten. This combination works so well because the contrasting details balance each other out to create a harmonious, cohesive whole. The structured shoulders of the blazers are countered by the fluid flow of the skirt, so the outfit looks polished without feeling stiff.
STYLE TIP
Keep the proportions of your outfit in mind when putting it together. A longer, oversized blazer looks good with a midi or maxi skirt, while a cropped or fitted blazer goes well with shorter hemlines.
For the Office
We suggest complementing an ensemble consisting of a blazer, a shirt and a draped midi skirt with elegant flats and a compact crossbody bag. As the top and bottom of this look are already in contrast, keep your accessories in the same tone for a clean finish. Stick to neutral shades of black, white, beige and even navy blue to ensure the outfit remains office appropriate.
For a Night Out
For an evening out, create a sleek all-black look by matching your blazer with a long, flowing skirt and ankle boots — you may want to add a belt to define the waist so that the movement of the skirt is accentuated. Wearing all black is not just a safe choice but also a savvy one, highlighting the contrast between sharp tailoring and fluid silhouettes while allowing it to take center stage. Meanwhile, ankle boots add a modern edge to the ensemble.
Sheer Layers
The so-called “translucency” trend refers to the layering of soft, see-through pieces over or under the other pieces in an outfit. This bold yet delicate and feminine trend has been spotted on the runways of Dior, Chloé and Tom Ford. To wear this trend, simply mix and match sheer and solid fabrics to create an alluring peekaboo effect — for instance, wear sheer pants over an opaque fitted underlayer. The resulting look feels light and refreshing rather than revealing.
STYLE TIP
A good rule of thumb is to opt for accessories with defined shapes — such as a boxy bag or clean-lined leather flats — as they serve as a counterweight to the softness of sheer fabrics and prevent the outfit from seeming too delicate.
For Date Night
This trend is particularly apt for date-night outfits. We recommend matching a fitted top with a sheer-hem skirt. Balance the light, see-through element of this look with a structured bag that features metallic hardware, along with coordinating flats or heels. Matching the hardware on your accessories offers an understated way to tie the outfit together without competing with the sheer fabric for attention.
For the Office
Sheer layers can also be styled for the office. An easy way to do so would be to pull a blazer over a sheer top so only a small area of the sheer fabric can be seen at the neckline. This will help to keep your look subtle and understated enough for work. We also recommend choosing a sheer top that is in the same color as the blazer to achieve a sleek and seamless appearance.
Unexpected Color Combinations
Editors have identified “unexpected color pairings” as a key trend of the Spring Summer 2027 season. It has been seen on the runways of Courrèges, Balmain and Balenciaga. The idea is simple enough — all you need to do is to incorporate contrasting colors that are not usually placed together into a single look. For example, matching a soft pastel hue with a rich jewel tone, or completing a quiet neutral-colored outfit with a brightly colored accessory. Unconventional color combinations that you can consider include pale blue with burgundy and cream with deep red.
For the Office
To make this eye-catching trend suitable for work, keep your outfit neutral and let one richly colored bag act as the single outstanding accent in the ensemble. For instance, pairing a burgundy top-handle bag with a cream-colored A-line midi dress creates a tasteful contrast that remains polished enough for board meetings.
For the Weekend
For the weekend, consider layering two or three pastel colors (e.g. mint green, blush pink, baby blue) and finishing your look with burgundy heels to prevent it from feeling too sweet. This combination works well because soft, gentle pastel hues can be worn together without appearing over the top, while a single deep shade on the shoes or bag provides contrast and balance.
Fringe Detailing
Fringe is a decorative trim that hangs from the edge of a garment and sways as you move. It comes in many forms, including hanging threads, leather strips and even beaded strands. As seen in the Spring Summer 2027 collections of Chloé, Balenciaga and Isabel Marant, fringe detailing enlivens an outfit with dynamic style. Often found on the hems of skirts and dresses, this trend imbues its wearer with a relaxed, free-spirited, 1970s-style energy, which works well for the warmer months.
STYLE TIP
Take note that fringed clothing looks best with plain, structured bags and shoes. These simple accessories balance the movement of the fringe and prevent the outfit from becoming too busy. Choose accessories in colors that match the clothing to keep your ensemble looking clean and polished.
For Everyday Wear
For everyday wear, opt for a piece with subtle fringe detailing, such as a knit skirt with a fringed hem, and pair it with flat shoes and a structured shoulder bag to create an easy, practical look that still stands out. The fringed skirt adds visual interest, while the clean lines and functionality of the accompanying accessories make running errands in style a breeze.
For a Getaway
Fringed clothing has a quietly glamorous quality that makes it great for vacations and getaways — for instance, a fully fringed dress is a statement piece that can be toned down with minimalist flat sandals to achieve a chic resort aesthetic. Opt for sandals in understated neutral shades like tan or cream to complement the warmth of the outfit while keeping the focus on the dynamic fringe detailing.
