Bows are set to dominate fashion trends in 2024, according to insights from Pinterest and Ebay. Pinterest reports a significant surge of 180 to 190 percent in searches for terms like “Bow outfit” and “Bow necklace,” predicting that bows will be a major micro-trend throughout the year. New York designer Sandy Liang, known for her creative use of bows, showcased this trend in her SS24 runway show with unique embellishments.
Sandy Liang SS24 Highlights:
- Look 12: A black tank dress featuring a 3D embellishment with a pink rose on a green stem, adorned with two bows in blue.
- Look 10: A yellow cardigan set with heart and floral-shaped mother-of-pearl buttons, with arms tied in a bow, paired with brown low-rise shorts featuring a bow embellishment.
Liang’s influence extends to ribbon bows designed explicitly for use as hair accessories, aligning with the ‘blokette’ trend.
Ebay’s Take on the Bow Trend: Ebay recognizes the resurgence of nostalgia-fueled fashion trends, highlighting bows as the latest craze. Desirable auction items with bow embellishments include a Gucci ‘Guccify yourself’ bow-applique track jacket, a Louis Vuitton x Takashi Murakami 2003 Cherry Blossom Monogram Shoulder Bag, Puma x Fenty pink satin sneakers, and a Chopard happy diamonds gold women’s watch.
Fashion Runways Confirm the Trend: The pre-fall 2024 season affirms the enduring popularity of bows. At Valentino, Pierpaolo Piccioli incorporated feminine details, including bows, providing a contrast to a more masculine approach to tailoring.
