The Best Summer Fragrances Have Something for Everyone

5 days ago | fashiontimes.com | Morgan C. Schimminger

We love a good trend. Especially if it involves something already in our closet. When it comes to fragrance, however, we admit that we tend to favor universally accepted aromas that fluctuate with the seasons. In fall and winter, for example, we crave deeper, moodier perfumes. For spring, it's all about fresh, lighter formulas. So it makes sense that our best 2025 summer fragrances list is full of summer-approved notes. First up, florals.

It's hard to believe that Zara is turning the big 5-0. Arguably the crown jewel of fast fashion, it started its journey way back on May 9, 1975. The retailer is pulling out all the stops for its anniversary by bringing 50 models together for a sure-to-be-legendary video shot by the one-and-only Steven Meisel. As if that wasn't enough, Zara also just dropped an anniversary collection.

Like many other fashion houses, Gucci is going through a bit of an adjustment period right now. Creative Director Sabato De Sarno has been ousted and we probably won't be treated to Demna's Gucci until September. In the meantime, the Italian fashion label has a Cruise 2026 collection to present. We just found out that the Gucci Cruise 2026 show will take place on May 15 and will be unveiled at its historic brand archive, Palazzo Settimanni. Those aren't the only things the house revealed.

A Rather Long Shorts Story Featuring Bermudas, Technical Pairs and More

Ever since the no pants trend began, we've been inundated with extremely short shorts. Like micro shorts. Or even hot pants. So you're probably expecting any summer shorts roundup to include at least a few itty-bitty examples. Sorry to disappoint, but we decided to go a different route by consciously excluding any barely-there bottoms. Even with that glaring omission, our must-buy list is jam-packed with cool silhouettes that'll see you through the beginning of September.

Chemena Kamali has really done an amazing job over at Chloe. The German designer has brought back the carefree boho persona the French fashion house is known for. Case in point: The brand's new high summer collection called Chloe a la Plage. Claudia Schiffer appears in the advertising campaign photographed by David Sims. The model shows off everything from a ruffled swimsuit to a floral tank and even a frilly eyelet blouse styled with lace-accented bottoms.

1 week ago | fashiontimes.com | Morgan C. Schimminger

Resort season has officially kicked off or, as is the case with several fashion houses, cruise season. The aspirational collections aren't available yet and even if they were, they'd cost you much more than a plane ticket to almost any vacation spot. Enter Rails x LSPACE's Playa del Sol collection, which drops today. The collaboration is a first for Rails and marks its initial entry into the swimwear market.
Nothing Says Summer Quite Like Colorful Silk Scarves

You're probably mentally going through your summer checklist. Shorts? Check. Raffia bag? Check. Swimsuits? Check. There's one must-have item that you may have missed. We're talking about colorful silk scarves. They can be worn as an outfit accent around the neck, threaded through belt loops or even as tops. More frequently, however, they're utilized to highlight hair, either by completely covering heads or serving as an elastic-free way of securing ponytails.

Marc Jacobs is just coming off of a real Met Gala high after Rihanna made her third pregnancy reveal decked out in a skirt suit by the designer. He also designed an eye-catching look for Doja Cat, which is totally fitting since the singer stars in the brand's latest advertising campaign. Instead of jetting off to some tropical island, Doja vacations in New York City while toting her trusty Dual bags all over the place.
Fendi's Summer Plans Include Patterned Denim, Bandana Prints and Bag Charms

1 week ago | fashiontimes.com | Morgan C. Schimminger

While most people only refer to fashion houses' collections as spring or fall, the industry actually combines spring with summer and fall with winter. There's been an interesting trend of late, however, where brands are dropping completely different summer offerings. Take Fendi as the Italian label recently rolled out its Summer 2025 collection and it's not your typical seasonal fare.
