We’ve officially entered the peak of summer. With heatwaves hitting cities all over the world, no one is quite exempt from the scorching sun and rising temperatures. As a result, our favourite celebrities are strutting out in their best summer outfits to beat the heat without ever compromising on style.
The go-to colour of the season? Think pink. You’ve probably already heard of it, Barbiecore—as popularised by Margot Robbie’s viral outfits on set of the much-anticipated Barbie movie set to release in July 2023. And this has now translated onto the streets, with many celebs taking to the excessive pink aesthetic. Nayeon of TWICE embodied the Barbie spirit in her recent solo debut, while supermodel Winnie Harlow opted for a more wearable take on the trend in a soft blush tracksuit set.
Renewing its lease in the fashion world, corsets have also made a full comeback. Since making an appearance in the hit Netflix show Bridgerton, variations of corsets have since scored a spot in the most famed wardrobes. While the formfitting garment might’ve previously held a bad rep for its repressive tendencies as donned by the bourgeoisie in the 17th and 18th century, high fashion has brought back more modernised, wearable versions of the corset as seen on It girls Sabrina Carpenter and Hailey Bieber.
As for the footwear trend that’s making big steps in the realm of celebrity style? Socks and loafers are seeing a resurgence as celebrities embrace prep school uniforms in their everyday ensembles. Taking the lead in the academia aesthetic is Rosalía, as she sports a full Prada set while jetsetting to Spain for her world tour. For those who prefer a more laidback approach to the trend, Emma Chamberlain’s go-to summer outfit that’s trending on TikTok consists of a white tank top and maxi skirt paired with scrunched up socks and loafers.

Halter tops
The brief is midriff-showing and shoulder-baring. The girls of (G)I-DLE showed off their sculpted abs with cropped halter tops fit for the summer. While proving you can never go wrong with a statement piece, Dua Lipa soaked up the sun in a printed halter with a plunging neckline and daisy dukes. Or if you prefer to keep things neutral, mimic Kiko Mizuhara’s outfit in a simple black halter top paired with a graphic mini skirt.

Bella followed suit in her sister’s footsteps, by matching the baggy shorts with a black crop top and a pair of grungy knee-high boots.
