I'm the kind of shopper who buys for spring with summer in mind. I know I'll be wearing those pieces well into the hotter months.

This year, NET-A-PORTER is already ahead of the curve, offering a preview of four standout trends featured in its latest arrivals. From retro, vintage-inspired looks to bold, maximalist prints to unexpected color pairings, there's quite a range to explore. For the newest pieces from brands such as Posse, Anna Sui, and Dôen, keep reading.
The Surrealists
This NET-A-PORTER curation is all about playful proportions, bold prints, and fun accessories. It's made for the maximalists who like to add personality to any ensemble. Even if you're a simpler dresser, try experimenting with these printed heels or oversize sunglasses.
Modern Heirlooms
This category contains the pieces that your future grandchildren would love to inherit one day. These vintage-inspired pieces include buzzy details such as fringe, lace trim, and long necklaces.
Color Blocking
This season, there's no such thing as clashing colors. The bolder and more adventurous, the better. These Alaïa wedge sandals have shot straight to the top of my summer wish list.
Wild Blooms
Florals for spring and summer will always be in, but this year, they're getting a much-needed revamp. Some options lean more understated, like the Posse Isla Floral-Print Linen and Silk-Blend Top ($300), while others are more overt, like the Anna Sui Blooming Fringe-Trim Scarf ($120).
