The Taste of Freedom: Boho Blouses That Will Be Relevant in Spring and Summer 0 7

Today, a boho blouse is not just a piece of hippie-style clothing, but a fully functional element of an urban contemporary look that easily pairs with denim, tailored trousers, and even fits into an office dress code if styled correctly. Stylist Masha Vedernikova shared what to choose and how to wear it.

Airy Cotton and Linen

The main staple of the season is loose blouses made of cotton and linen with soft gathers, embroidery, tucks, and lace inserts. "They allow the skin to breathe, move beautifully, and provide that relaxed silhouette associated with warmth, joy, and sunshine. It’s best to wear them with a contrast: rough denim, a leather belt, cowboy boots, or thick-soled sandals. This way, the look doesn’t drift into retro folklore but remains urban," explains the expert.

Sheer and Chiffon

The second trend line is boho through transparency. Chiffon, fine batiste, organza, and light layered sleeves create a soft, romantic silhouette, but with the right styling, they look modern. The best approach is to balance them with dense textures: tailored trousers, vests, or straight-cut jeans. This achieves a balance between refined fragility and structure.

With a Focus on Sleeves

Voluminous sleeves are one of the most noticeable elements of this season's boho aesthetic. Balloon sleeves, flared long cuffs, long sleeves with slits, and gathers at the shoulder. "Such a blouse becomes the focal point of the outfit, so it’s better to keep the bottom simple: choose straight trousers, a pencil skirt, or unembellished denim," advises the stylist.

Embroidery and Handcrafted Texture

Ethnic embroidery, lace, and crochet create a sense of handcrafted work. However, in modern presentations, it’s important to choose minimalist options: fewer contrasting patterns, more monochrome and natural shades. Such blouses work well in the capsule aesthetic of 'quiet luxury': paired with linen suits, suede shoes, and woven bags.
