Top 5 Fashion Looks
Fashion trends that last
It's time for the ultimate crowning of the 5 biggest fashion looks, and there are certain considerations that need to be brought into play: Should it be looks that are trending right here and now? Should it be outdated looks, or should it be trends that have stood the test of time and are still hits? Although all three formats would create great top 5s, it will now mainly be the looks that have maintained their status over time that take the spots. To be in the ultimate top 5 Fashion Looks, you have to be able to function over time and not just be a fly in the ointment.
1. The ultimate American look
According to experts, the biggest and most timeless fashion trend of all time is blue jeans , and not only do we have to respect that - we love them. Both because they can be dressed up or down as you see fit, but also because they come in so many different variations; high-waisted, low-waisted, skinny, flared, with rips.
But what should be added to the blue jeans to create the ultimate look? Something as simple as a white t-shirt ! They are available in all price ranges and are easily accessible - and they can be matched with EVERYTHING, but exactly the blue jeans are something special, it is typically called the ultimate American look. That can certainly do something, because it is a look that is good for most things - for going to work in, drinking a cup of coffee in, shopping in. It can do a lot! For a little extra edge and as the icing on the cake, you can also add a leather jacket to the look to complete it.
2. The little black one
We CAN'T possibly make a top 5 of fashion looks without mentioning the legend: The little black dress. Either you have the little black dress, or you better get your hands on it, because a little black dress is a must-have in your wardrobe - no matter what it looks like. Because although it obviously shouldn't be too long like the little black dress (it should preferably be knee-length), and should preferably have a simple, straight silhouette, the little black dress can look in all sorts of ways. It can also be dressed up or down, but that's not necessary, because as Karl Lagerfeld said, in the little black dress you are never overdressed or too simply dressed. What a statement, no wonder it's in our top 5!
3. Powersuit
Everyone should own a power suit - the kind of suit that makes you feel powerful because it gives you so much power. Because honestly, there's nothing more bossy than wearing a suit, right? No, right?
The women's suit has been trending since the 1970s, and it has stood the test of time, as it is more popular than ever. Whether it is black, beige or a completely different color, and whether it is a regular or oversized blazer, a suit looks amazing, so if you don't have one in your wardrobe, you better get one. We definitely stand by our choice to put powersuits on the list of top fashion looks.
4. White pants
Wow, shouldn't we only choose looks that have stood the test of time? Well, actually, but some trends are so huge that you can't ignore them, and on the 2024 fashion set, there was broad agreement from Paris to Los Angeles to Copenhagen: white pants, especially denim, are pushing the reigning champions, blue jeans, off the pedestal, and they were spotted more often.
For the white pants, you can consider a cute top or a nice blouse . Here, the choice should either go for a top in the same color to follow the fashion that is currently in place with matching top and bottom, or fall on a top in an eye-catching color to create contrast. Regardless of which combination you choose, you are guaranteed a stunningly beautiful outfit that rightfully belongs in our ultimate top 5.
5. The mini skirt & the crop top
Here we put together two legends, one in particular that took everyone by storm with its debut in the 1960s and has since managed to stay in fashion - it is of course the mini skirt, i.e. the short skirt or miniskirt. According to a survey based on 2000 participants in the UK, the miniskirt is the most iconic fashion trend of all time, and we understand that very well! It is a symbol of female liberation and empowerment, it is feminine and seductive, and it is a timeless addition to the wardrobe.
But what's big enough to pair with the miniskirt on this venerable list? Say hello to another legend that's been seen on the runways, on the red carpet and in everyday life since the 1980s for parties and colors as well as more casual events - our all-time crop top . Crop tops are often paired with low-rise jeans thanks to the legendary looks of Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera (they have to end up in an imaginary sixth place), but they're also absolutely brilliant with the miniskirt, and it's especially a great way to say that you're comfortable in and with your body.
That was our take on a Top 5 of Fashion Looks - at all! We hope it's been fun to read along, and you can possibly make your own Top 5 and have fun with it.
