Spring 2026 Trends: Windbreakers, Capris, and More

It’s officially spring and as the saying goes, “April showers bring May flowers,” which means bouts of rain and unpredictable weather are almost inevitable. However, at the risk of getting blasted with a chill or caught in a sudden downpour, this is around the time that most people throw practicality out the window and begin reaching for those more playful pieces they had packed away. But with the spring 2026 runway trends as proof, that post-winter clarity often leads to some really fun collections that won’t make you choose between whimsy and function.

From designers like Stella McCartney and Tom Ford incorporating lingerie-inspired designs into their Spring/Summer 2026 collections, to Loewe and Fendi putting their own spin on the oversized windbreaker that looks like it was plucked right out of the ‘90s, the fashion set is all about experimenting with different proportions and details. It’s why divisive pieces like capris are also having a moment, as they can be worn, in legging form, from Pilates to brunch with ease. There’s this undeniable push to get people to think outside the box and from the looks of the trends that are going to be everywhere this spring, it’s working like a charm.

Continue ahead for a breakdown of the seven unconventional spring 2026 fashion trends that are set to dominate this season — across dresses, jacket, and aesthetics — along with a curated selection of shoppable finds to help you get ahead of the masses.
