A sultry, bohemian aesthetic is everywhere right now, acting as a fresh and much-needed source of energy for the industry that was previously riding on minimalism alone. Think billowy silhouettes, sheer fabrics, and, yes, clogs. The trend was spearheaded by Chloé's new creative director Chemena Kamali's debut collection, presented for fall 2024.

Of all her new, sought-after pieces for the French house, one specific style is garnering the most acclaim: lace blouses. Featuring a romantic look that doesn't appear dated but rather modern and exciting, the flowy, ethereal tops in the show, which are now available to purchase, are quickly becoming the preferred alternative for basic tees and tanks this season and beyond.

For the colder months, we suggest turning toward jewel-tone versions with flowing, tiered fabric. Meanwhile, for spring and summer, there are a plethora of airy, white alternatives to choose from. If you're looking for something to pair with jeans that feels more special than a simple T-shirt, a lace blouse is the perfect fit.

Following Chloé's runway show in February, brands have been quick to emulate the bohemian silhouette. Though Chloé's styles remain highly coveted by all, I've also been charmed by some sophisticated options from Zara, Free People, and more. Read on to shop an edit of the best lace blouses out right now.
