Summer fashion trends shift with the tides, sometimes directly inspired by them. Take, for instance, fashion's latest obsession with fish-inspired jewelry. It’s just the next step in the sardine-ification of fashion—and It-girls are diving right in.
The rise of aquatic-themed accessories shouldn't be surprising. First, there was the lobster-shaped beaded bag that went viral on TikTok earlier this year. Staud's sardine-themed Tommy bag kept the trend going into summer, with one playful style receiving a nod from Gigi Hadid. While seashell and pearl jewelry were once the peak of the fishy fashion phase, it seems there are still new depths to explore.
