When it comes to spring prints, gingham is up there with the best. The little checks in candy-coloured hues go hand-in-hand with sunshine, and despite being around for decades, it’s a pattern that always ticks off spring/summer fashion trends with ease and manages to feel fresh year after year.
Things are a little different for 2026, though, as gingham is popping up all over the high street with a much bigger and bolder vibe that will feel all the more fun and cheerful for warmer weather. Jumbo-sized squares have given the vintage look a contemporary upgrade and can be found on everything from floaty frocks to relaxed tops right now, but the piece that has particularly caught my fashion eye is a wide-leg jumpsuit from Boden.
