A Case For Over-The-Top Dressing: 3 Loud Looks We Can’t Wait To Wear This Spring

Like a TikTok transition, the spring equinox makes us want to immediately go from a somber (and sweatpant-y) fashion mood to — jump cut — full-on peacocking. That's why, when appointing this season's most joyful trend, we're not pinpointing any one hue or trouser cut, but instead, declaring it an in-your-face style free-for-all.

It's all about leaning into highly saturated tones, silhouettes that fall on either end of the streamlined-to-voluminous spectrum, and an overall attitude of "the louder the better." To see this philosophy in action, we've partnered with Macy’s to present a few bold and bright outfit ideas, seen here on content creator Candace Hampton. See-through hot pink with acid yellow hibiscus print? Fuchsia braided leather and cobalt? See all that — and much, much more — ahead.

Throw everything you thought you knew about "statement pieces" and "focal points" out the window — for SS21, we're putting together looks so complex, your eye won't know where to stop. Here, an element of sheerness, a whimsical pattern, and goes-with-everything cutoffs keep the overall vibe vibrant but light.

We spy a going-out top (remember those?). While a black top and jeans might not seem like the most obvious example of this OTT trend, a notched, off-the-shoulder neckline provides a literal frame for your face. And what could be more look-at-me than that?

Matching your puff-sleeve top to your hair? A major flex. Add a pair of hot pink braided mules, and you've got a color combo that's just climbed to the top of our "Outfit Ideas" list.
