There are certain summer items you can count on the fashion world returning to year after year. Things like raffia textures, crochet, and linen pieces are guaranteed to bubble up every season, making them foolproof closet investments. They’ve transcended from the trend category and moved into staple status—you simply can’t picture a summer wardrobe without them. Well stripes are another one of those items that are so quintessentially summer they’re considered a seasonal essential.
I personally love striped pieces because I know they withstand the rapid trend cycle and provide an air of timelessness to my summer wardrobe. And while the classic blue-and-white combo will always be in style, designers have continued to offer unique takes on summer stripes. From unexpected color pairings to modern twists on the print, there are so many chic striped options out there right now. So if you’re looking to add items to your summer wardrobe you’ll return to for years, below I’m highlighting the best striped clothing of the ’24 season.
