Our bohemian wishes have been answered: Crochet is back and better than ever. It seems fashion designers are catching on, as the word “crochet” dominates articles on anything from festival fashion to upcoming trends. Bring on the ’60s revolution!
While you may have stocked up your wardrobe with these super stylish pieces, you have another issue to face. How are you going to wear them? Crochet doesn’t wear itself (unfortunately) and there’s a thin line between boho chic and tousled hippie. Don’t worry ladies, ENTITY is here to help. Here are nine different ways you can rock crochet this season.
If you’re not ready to go headfirst into the world of crochet, ease your way into it. A top or dress with crochet embellishments is a great way to fulfill your hankering for crochet without going all out.
A relatively see-through crochet top is a super cute way to make a statement at this year’s festival or concert series. If you’re feeling daring, pair it with a strappy bralette. If not, a tank or crop top will work just as well. We love the floral and colorful crochet patterns. Who knew grandma’s blanket could look so dang cute?
A poncho is easily the best way to go completely authentic with your bohemian outfit. Be wary about picking a design that doesn’t fit you well. It’s supposed to be casually loose, but not as loose as a potato sack. Add suede to your outfit if you really want to go there. (Go there!)
Though crochet may not always be convenient if you live somewhere with cooler weather, you can still rep the trend with a crocheted bucket bag. We think these are the perfect way to top off a bohemian outfit. Even fashionistas have to carry their lip glosses somehow, right?
Since the crochet trend is reaching its apex, crochet bodysuits and bathing suits are readily available this season. Suits with circling patterns circling create a perfect harmony between sexy and vintage flare. Pair them with a pair of high-waisted shorts or a chunky knit cardigan for a casual summer look.
Looking for a textural component to your outfits? Pick up a crocheted headband or head wrap. They’re the perfect way to hold back your loose strands and upgrade your outfit.
If a tube top isn’t really functional for your lifestyle, try a crocheted halter top. Leaving your shoulders bare, halter tops are guaranteed to help combat sweltering summer heat and still look flawless.
We all agree that crochet is gorgeous, but how can crochet-lovers make it work during the winter months? If you want to continue your love affair with crochet fashion into next season, opt for a stylish infinity scarf. (The bigger, the better.)
Crochet shorts or shorts with lace crochet embellishments are a perfect style staple to add to your summer wardrobe. White or cream shorts are the perfect summer uniform, but a black pair will be wearable yearlong.
This year, you might have a hard time choosing from all the different ways you can wear crochet. Choose your favorite option, hit the town and kill it. (We already know you will.)
