A blouse is a universal item of women's wardrobe that goes well with various styles of trousers, skirts, shorts, jeans. It is worn both for formal events and on dates. It is not surprising that the fair sex is interested in what fashionable blouses of 2024 will please them with in the new season, and what should be paid attention to when choosing them. In order not to regret the money spent and not to lag behind fashion trends, it is worth being aware of the trends that are relevant in the next few years.
Fashion trends
A women's blouse is a type of clothing made from lightweight fabric in the form of a fitted shirt. It usually has sleeves of different shapes (raglan, one-piece), but can be without them. The main emerging trend for both winter and summer 2024 is femininity. Unisex, which has long occupied a leading position, is fading into the background. Ascetic normcore and beloved "torn" are pretty boring for everyone. Among the new trends are an abundance of lingerie-style elements, beautiful necklines, open shoulders, transparent, lace fabrics and thin leather.
Elements of glamour from the 2000s are returning in gold, silver, combined with black, white and beige. Abundance of embroidery, drapery, flying flounces emphasize the beauty of young girls and older women. Femininity is a promising direction of the changed course of fashion for blouses. And if recently preference was given to a men's style shirt, then the palm of primacy will now be occupied by beautiful silk translucent blouses, decorated with embroidery, frills, flounces.
Design and cut
A favorite technique of modern clothing designers is blouse styles that emphasize the beauty of the body. New items for women are models with open shoulders. They can have long sleeves or a flounce that covers the arms to the elbow. Among them are types of cut that have not been used in blouses for girls for a long time:
- "Bell" - the sleeve widens from the shoulder or elbow. The flowing bottom does not restrict movement and emphasizes the beauty of the hands. The length can go beyond the wrist.
- "Bishop" - a sleeve widened from the shoulder at the bottom gathered on a wide cuff. An excellent choice for an office blouse model.
- A variant with flared mesh and shortened sleeves. Spring and summer are the ideal time of year to wear such a blouse.
- Sleeveless tops with straps or dropped shoulders. They are worn under office jackets so that after work you can change your look to something more evening. This model is made of satin silk, lace along the neckline corresponds to the fashionable lingerie style.
- Asymmetrical models have only one shoulder exposed. The blouse, made of delicate silk, is complemented with flounces or frills, the back is decorated with lacing or ties.
- Wrap blouses are a girl's best friend. They are good for any situation, suit everyone, and are very feminine.
- The model with a peplum emphasizes a thin waist, masks too narrow hips, and is suitable for slender lovers of retro style.
- The best choice for plus size women is loose blouses made of fabric with a large print. The pattern and cut of such a model will hide the features of a large figure.
As for collars, the most popular are: shirt collar, stand-up collar, turn-down shawl collar. There are models without a collar at all. Fitted blouses are usually not too long, while loose-fitting models, more reminiscent of tunics, can reach the middle of the thigh.
Asymmetrical hem is another trend for 2024.
Only office blouses remain strict and laconic, but there are fewer and fewer of them. The favorite styles for a business look are a masculine-style shirt or a feminine wrap-around model.
Materials and textures
Since the most fashionable blouses for the next few years are feminine models in lingerie style, it is quite logical that the list of relevant fabrics for sewing them has changed. The most popular materials are:
- Natural satin and matte silk. It is appropriate for office or formal wear. It is characterized by a beautiful appearance and is pleasant to wear.
- Cotton with added elastane and polyester. Hygroscopic fabric due to additives of synthetic fibers almost does not wrinkle. The stretch effect allows you to choose fitted models without losing comfort. For hot summer, lace made of natural cotton is used.
- Chiffon, crepe-chiffon. Evening blouses, richly decorated with embroidery and sequins, are sewn from these fabrics. The materials are soft, pleasant to the touch, flow beautifully, and advantageously emphasize the lines of the figure.
- Knitwear. The material does not give up its positions due to its amazingly soft texture, which evokes associations with cozy home clothes when worn. Women prefer viscose fabrics, they are beautifully colored and pleasant to the touch.
Companion fabrics made of lace and individual openwork inserts are used as decoration. Cellulose materials are becoming increasingly popular. Viscose mixed with cotton is no different in appearance from pure cotton. A blouse made from mixed fabric with a small percentage of polyester is pleasant to the body, does not wrinkle, and is easy to care for. The industry produces many new fabrics for women's clothing. Among them are materials made from bamboo and hemp (not to be confused with viscose from bamboo). Products made from such fabrics are hygroscopic and look beautiful.
Modern society has new fashion trends - concern for the ecology of the planet and economical use of resources. This could not but affect the choice of materials for clothing. Fabrics obtained from recycled materials are in trend. These include all materials containing polyester from recycled plastic.
Color solutions
The choice of color for a fashionable blouse 2024 is very important. It is believed that the first impression of the image always depends on the shade of the clothes. The leading international company in the field of trends WGSN in 2024 recommends using neo mint color to the maximum. There are several reasons for this. It is futuristic - an important property at the turn of the new decade, and at the same time it can be called the color of nature - an excellent solution for the office and hot summer. Neo Mint is perfect for silk fabrics, natural cotton materials.
The second group of recommended colors are shades of blue: pure dark blue, with a purple undertone, sea-green and sky blue. Cassis, which is fashionable today, will not give up its positions next year. This noble color, a mixture of purple, purple and pink in different proportions, will be a great choice for blouses in spring-summer 2024. Cantaloupe, a combination of orange and pink, will be another discovery of the year. It is associated with joy, tenderness and optimism.
Yellow also remains fashionable. Lemon yellow is no longer in the collections of world couturiers, but trends include all its warm shades.
When combining a blouse with other items, you can create a contrasting pair, for example, blue with pink, or choose everything in one color, but different shades. Soft pastel colors are the best choice for such an image. Sets made up of items of the base color and its shade always look impressive. An example is the rather popular combination of pink and red.
Recommended prints for fabrics:
- polka dots on silk and transparent chiffon;
- geometric patterns in the form of stripes and checks;
- abstraction;
- floral;
- animalistic drawings.
Flowers are still a fashionable print. Also in the latest collections there is a lot of 3D embroidery with a pattern in the form of various flowering plants. Models made of silk and chiffon are decorated with voluminous flower petals, on elegant blouses there is embroidery made of beads and glass beads.

For success at work and a good internal state, it is important how office clothes look. In such blouses, open shoulders are unacceptable, but you can wear a model with short sleeves. White shirts are still popular.

The option with wrap-around sides looks feminine, fits into the strictest dress code.
Blouses for office style should be beautiful, have high hygienic properties, and not cause problems in care.

Shoes do not match it in color, but can echo the top in shade. There are no decorations, wearing a neck scarf is allowed in the winter-autumn season.

Girls of chic sizes will look very attractive in multi-layered tunics made of transparent chiffon in combination with a long skirt or trousers. Shoes can have a comfortable heel. A small bag is chosen, inlaid with Swarovski crystals or decorated with embroidery.
