The Spring Fashion Trend You Should Try Based On Your Zodiac Sign
Spring is nearly upon us, which means it's the perfect time to weed through your wardrobe and make room for new warm-weather looks. In 2023, we can expect to see a variety of spring fashion trends that check nearly every box — from dark, edgy looks to the hyper-feminine and demure. Many designers leaned heavily toward Y2K aesthetics for their spring collections, showing fitted silhouettes and gauzy fabrics. Online, micro-influencers are incorporating elements from the noughties and beyond with balletcore and indie sleaze attire. Whether you prefer to draw outfit inspiration from the runway or mercurial microtrends, there's no shortage of creative pieces to choose from this season.
Wading through this year's sea of spring fashions can certainly feel a touch overwhelming. With the staggering number of chic designs making waves, it's hard to determine which one is right for you. Fortunately, you have star power on your side. Your sun sign can help guide you in the right direction when you're feeling torn between dopamine dressing and inky boudoir slips. So, which springtime trend suits your zodiac sign best?
Aries: denim done differently
Quick-witted Aries is considered one of the most creative and influential signs in the zodiac. This spring's unconventional denim styles, seen on runways from Chloé to Burberry, were made for this forward-thinking sign. Of course, unique denimwear designs aren't limited to pants — look for jean skirts, tops, and jumpsuits with unique detailing, like contrast stitching, patchwork, or prints.
Taurus: bright-colored trousers
While Tauruses have a reputation for being reliable and practical, they're also drawn to beautiful things. What better way to indulge the senses than with a pair of bold, colorful trousers? This season, roomy styles still reign supreme — sorry, skinny jean fans. Try picking up a pair of flares, wide-leg pants, or noughties-inspired cargos in seriously bright hues.
Gemini: extra statement earrings
Like the twins that represent them, Geminis are dual-sided individuals — playful but thoughtful, magnetic but down-to-earth. The perfect spring trend for the dynamic Gemini? Serious statement earrings, à la 1960s it-girl Edie Sedgwick, embody this twinning sign. From intricate chandelier styles to whimsical shapes, there's no wrong way to rock the most dramatic ear candy this season.
Cancer: sequins on everything
Ruled by the moon, Cancers have a special connection to the silvery planet and the glittering ocean tides it creates. This sensual sign would do well to follow spring's sparkling sequin trend, visible in Valentino's stunning SS23 collection. Plus, luminescent sequin looks can pull Cancers out of their shell — after all, they're quite the conversation starters.
Leo: indie sleaze revival
The concept of indie sleaze is a divisive one in fashion circles. This provocative trend is easily misinterpreted, but it's more or less a mixture of alternative aesthetics from the early days of social media. Think back to imagery from Tumblr and We Heart It — that is, if you can. Even those who experienced indie sleaze fashions the first time around were winging it, so you're free to interpret the style as you see fit. As a natural-born leader and total extrovert, however, Leo is the sign to bring back the era's party-ready platforms, cut-off shorts, and metallic bodysuits.
Virgo: summer black dresses
This look embodies two trends projected for spring: the moody "summer black" color trend and flouncy bubble skirt hems. You can certainly opt to wear either style, but artsy and intuitive Virgos are a perfect match for the elegant summer black minidress. Those in hotter climates may wish to stick to natural, breathable dress fabrics like cotton, linen, and silk. Since black goes with everything, try incorporating other spring trends — like crochet or boudoir details — in your dress of choice.
Libra: brilliant white shoes
Libras are known for their charm and good taste, so they're the perfect fit for spring's bright white shoe trend. True, crispy white footwear is always a warm-weather favorite, but this spring's styles will include everything from soft leather mules to posh platform sandals. Try tying it into the ballet flat trend, or stick with festival-ready strappy clogs. No matter which silhouette you reach for, a pair of dazzling white shoes can instantly transform virtually any look.
Scorpio: bold leather looks
Let's face it: Scorpios are both revered and feared for their intensity and air of mystery. That said, there's no better sign to wear this season's most daring fashion trend. Leather is the material on everyone's mind this spring, and motorcycle jackets are just the tip of the iceberg. Sparky Scorpios will have no trouble experimenting with colored leather, buttery accessories, and racy separates, from corsets to shorts.
Sagittarius: delicate balletcore outfits
By now, you've likely heard all about balletcore, the soft-girl style that's leapt into millions of hearts. The quirky, bubbly nature of Sagittarius goes hand-in-hand with this hyper-romantic trend. Although it shares some similarities with other microtrends, like cottagecore and coquette styles, balletcore stems from classic dancewear attire. To capture the balletcore aesthetic, choose twirl-worthy pieces like skirts, tights, leg warmers — and yes, ballet flats — in pale neutrals or pastels.
Capricorn: satin midi skirts
This spring, satin midi skirts are set to shine. Ambitious Capricorns will find that satin midis are perfect for making moves — plus, they're versatile enough to be dressed up or down. Low-rise midi skirts will be big this season, thanks to the unwavering influence of Y2K-era fashion. Wear them with a simple, delicate cami, or go for a grunge effect with your favorite faded band tee.
Aquarius: super sheer dresses
Aquariuses are considered cool, kind, and breezy — precisely why spring's sheer dress trend is just right for them. Translucent dresses in every cut and color are predicted to turn heads this season, and free-spirited Aquarius is just the sign to pull them off. Dreamy Aquarius suits the ultra-girly interpretation, complete with romantic puff sleeves and ruching, but can just as easily rock an understated mesh t-shirt dress.
Pisces: acid green attire
Acid green, or chartreuse, is anticipated to be one of this spring's biggest color trends, and it's easy to see why. This brilliant shade of green is simply breathtaking — a bit like the ultra-stellar Pisces. Fiercely independent and imaginative, Pisces loves to explore new things and finds beauty in unusual places. While acid green may not be for the faint of heart, it's certainly one of this season's most thought-provoking hues.
