Spring 2025: A Season of Bold Colour, Pattern, and Playfulness

Designer Lizzie brings us the latest trends in a delicious visual guide for Spring 2025. This season is a feast of deep colours, vibrant patterns, and a playful approach to style. We’re seeing a shift towards self-expression and a celebration of personality—where individuality reigns, and the rules of design are gently nudged aside in favour of creativity.

After years of pared-back minimalism and earthy neutrals, there’s a strong resurgence of boldness in design. Colour is no longer a supporting act but the star of the show. This evolution reflects a wider cultural shift—perhaps a reaction to uncertain times, with people embracing joy, energy, and a sense of escapism through their surroundings. We’re craving environments that make us feel something, whether it’s a sense of adventure, nostalgia, or serenity.

Here are the key trends shaping the season ahead:

 

Trend:  Bohemian Basking

Boho has not been left behind, but it has evolved. This isn’t about rigidly following a set style—it’s about layering textures, colours, and prints in a way that feels personal. There’s a touch of wanderlust here, with patterns and influences borrowed from around the world. Think flowing textiles, natural materials, and pieces that feel like they’ve been collected on an adventure rather than bought all at once.

Trend: Primary Core 

The revival of the foundational hues: red, yellow, and blue. This trend celebrates the bold simplicity and energy of these essential shades. A reminder of the power of the basics.

Trend: Plaid Play

Plaid is having a moment—but not as you know it. This season, expect to see plaid in unexpected scales and colour combinations, bringing a fresh, contemporary look to a classic pattern. The difference between plaid and check? Checks are made of evenly spaced, alternating squares, while plaid is more intricate, featuring a mix of different stripe sizes and colours. This season’s plaids lean into the latter—think oversized prints, tonal layering, and playful reinventions of traditional weaves.

Trend: Curated Chaos

Maximalism continues to thrive, and this season, it’s taking on an even more eclectic and colourful form. Think vibrant clashing patterns, bold layering, and an anything-goes approach. This is a celebration of individuality and the joy of nonconforming. The bigger the clash, the better. Colour confidence is key, with unexpected combinations creating a visual explosion of energy. If you’ve ever wanted an excuse to break the rules, this is it.

Trend: Coastal Cool 

A classical vibe that brings the nautical feels. A fascination with the ocean is eternal, and an endless source of inspiration. This classic style is always developing, and brings something each season, however humble.

What This Means for Spring 2025

This season is all about confidence—whether in colour, pattern, or the way we mix styles. The overarching theme? A rejection of sameness in favour of personal expression. Whether you lean towards the calm of Coastal Cool, the nostalgia of Primary Core, or the joyful chaos of maximalist layering, there’s space to experiment.
