by Ada Lalia 26 Jun 2025 0 Comments

The saying what goes around, comes around. When it comes to fashion trends, this couldn't be truer. Fashion trends work in cycles. One of the reasons could be because every generation is drawn to aesthetic inspiration from the past generations. What's popular today might be outdated tomorrow, and styles from the past can resurface years later, often with a modern twist.  For example, the puff sleeves of the 80s and the low-rise jeans of the 90s have popped out again. Fashion designers tend to create truly unique and new concepts, with most are looking to the decade’s past for sartorial inspiration.

Fashion enthusiasts who love the concept of capsule wardrobe and investing in classic styles that can stand the test of time will be happy to see gems from the past resurface with fresh vigour this season. Now which trends are set to make their comeback in 2025? Let's scroll ahead.
