"Fringe comes in: It's the ultimate style hack that does all the heavy lifting of looking "put together" with a single swish. After years of sleek, neutral-toned, quiet luxury looks, fashion's pendulum has finally swung toward bold maximalism. Thanks to the Spring/Summer 2026 runways of Chanel, Moschino, Balenciaga, and Givenchy, among others, the tasseled look is one of the buzziest aesthetics of the season."
"What's even better is you don't need a high-maintenance routine to pull off this OTT vibe. Fringe happens to be one of the most effortless trends. If you're skeptical, though, allow Emily Ratajkowski and Hailey Bieber to convince you otherwise. It Girls Love Fringe In recent days, the supermodels proved that fringe is a great shortcut to leveling up a look."
"Last week, Ratajkowski stepped out for a Primark event in NYC in a noir maxi skirt with a fringed macramé trim. Even in a simple silhouette and neutral hue, the delicate, wispy details gave it instant sophistication. No one even noticed that the Too Much star didn't pair it with something equally flamboyant. Instead, she kept things low-key in one of the most basic wardrobe staples to exist: a cropped white tank."
"Two days later, Bieber starred in Alaïa's Summer/Fall 2026 campaign, spotlighting some of the label's fringed goods. One outfit included simple knit co-ords - a black sleeveless top and matching skirt. But the thin, long trimming added major drama and movement to both pieces. Similarly, when the Rhode founder slipped into a long-sleeved black bodysuit, her 'fit was totally casual until she paired it with thigh-high stockings with a fabulous long trim - in hot pink, no less."
Fringe is presented as a low-maintenance style hack that creates a polished, high-impact look with little effort. Bold maximalism is described as gaining momentum, with fringe highlighted as a standout aesthetic for Spring/Summer 2026 runway collections. The trend is framed as easy to wear because it adds drama and movement without requiring complex styling. Examples show fringe used on a noir maxi skirt with macramé trim paired with a cropped white tank, plus black heeled sandals and hoop earrings. Another example pairs fringed knit co-ords in black, where long thin trimming adds motion. A further example uses a casual black bodysuit styled with thigh-high stockings featuring a long hot-pink fringe.
