This upcoming spring, fashion trends can expect to see a return or continuation of preppy / Ivy League inspired styles. Many popular brands are bringing back button downs, loafers, polo shirts and tennis skirts. Softer colors like white, pastel blues and yellows are typically popular for spring time fashion, as well as navy, which is always a good basic color. 

Some current trending pieces of fashion can include tennis skirts, striped patterns, specifically on sweaters, and canvas tote bags. Brands like Ralph Lauren and Tommy Hilfiger are good representations of this Preppy/ Ivy League style we are going to be seeing and are helping to bring back this classic style.

Platforms on social media such as TikTok and Instagram have made trends like “Old Money” and “coastal prep” or “coastal grand daughter” popular aesthetics once again. Many celebrities and influencers can be seen creating and showing off styles inspired by these aesthetics. 

This trend reflections a sense of nostalgia in such a classic form. Many people are attracted to classic styles, ones that can feel timeless and traditional. The constant return of preppy styles shows how culture often will revert back to older fashion styles and trends.
