Megan Thee Stallion was rapping about enjoying a “Hot Girl Summer” back in the summer of 2019. But in 2024, sex appeal isn’t as important in the fashion of the summer as being, well, groovy, baby. It is an allusion to Austin Powers, yes. Why? Thanks to designers like Chloé and Saint Laurent, who have introduced new interpretations of ruffled blouses, lace skirts, and wooden clogs, boho fashion is incredibly popular this season. Stars like Jennifer Lopez, Rihanna, and Sienna Miller have already embraced the style. Emily Ratajkowski is now prepared for a bohemian girl summer as well: Putting her own spin on the current trend, the model was spotted out and about in New York City today.
The bohemian look, which pays homage to the carefree, bohemian fashion of the 1970s, is all about embracing breezy, sunny, and casual clothing. The delicate white slip dress on Ratajkowski is perfect for the occasion: It has a swishy hemline and asymmetrical lace embellishment. Should this have been the early 2000s, when the ensemble also had popularity, the celebrity would have accessorized with Chloé’s studded Susanna boots and a fringed purse, à la Sienna Miller. Ratajkowski added stacked gold necklaces, gas station sunnies, and red Puma sneakers to complete the look for a more 2024 vibe. (After all, she is the master of donning gowns with shoes.)
Ratajkowski demonstrates how to pull off the look by selecting one bohemian hero item and then layering additional sophisticated and casual pieces to complete the ensemble. Take her contemporary styling as evidence that you can rock a bohemian girl look this summer without appearing out of place.
