Let’s take a look at why they’re trending this year and how you can style them to be cool without trying.

Pastel Looks Great in the Sun

A large part of the reason pastel prints are such a sensation is because they photo so GP-worthy in natural light. Whether you’re enjoying a candid moment at a haldi or clicking away in the mirror before family lunch, pastels shine with a soft light that don’t translate to disheartening contrasts.

By themselves, pastels are pretty, but when combined with whispery prints they can look interesting without screaming. And the ones that are gaining momentum this year:

  • Mini florals gentle, all-over blooms
  • Washy abstract watercolor prints dreamy and arty
  • Leafy motifs, nature-inspired, subtle
  • Pastel geometric prints tidy, contemporary vibes
  • Subtle paisleys and light boho designs
