Adopting the bohemian chic style is a difficult mission, but not impossible. As we can see from its name, the style we are talking about provides for bohemian and at the same time chic outfits. Which is a bit of an oxymoron as a combination. Oxymoron or not, it’s a trendy style that is well represented by the “stars”. It is found among the pages of magazines in more and more photos. They show this style which is in fashion again this year. Spring and summer, just like fall, are ideal for adopting the bohemian chic style.

The essential pieces of bohemian-chic style
The bohemian-chic style, halfway between freedom, creativity and relaxed elegance, is more than just a trend. It’s a real state of mind and if you want to master this look, here is a quick guide in line with current trends. This style is also very well suited by women over 50 with a touch of modernity.
Ethnic pieces are part of the bohemian chic look
Long, flowing dresses: the basics
The long dress is one of the key elements of bohemian-chic style. Floating with the movements, it embodies both freedom and femininity. For a successful look in 2024, opt for dresses in silk or light cotton, with ruffles or delicate embroidery. During the Chloé fall-winter 2024-2025 fashion show, presented by Chemena Kamali, these dresses appeared enhanced by touches of transparency and soft colors such as sage, taupe or clay. These pieces from the new collections are proof of hippie elegance and modern refinement.
Colors, materials, everything to reveal your femininity
Suede jackets with fringes and leather jackets
The fringed jacket adds a rock and vintage touch to the outfit. This inspiration comes directly from the 70s. At Zimmermann and Isabel Marant we saw jackets with fringes worn over flowing blouses or light dresses, creating a seductive contrast.
For a chic look, you should not mix more than 3 colors
The return of the straight leather perfecto in different colors and floral prints allows you to mix the rebellious side of rock with the bohemian spirit. A nod to the counterculture of the Woodstock years, but in a more contemporary and feminine version.
Ethnic prints and natural accessories
Impossible to talk bohemian-chic without mentioning prints. Whether floral patterns, geometric designs or ethnic influences, these details bring character to outfits. As seen in the Rabanne and Bottega Veneta collections, these prints are available on scarves, canvas bags and even dresses. But still, leopard print will be everywhere in 2024. For a more authentic touch, choose handcrafted jewelry, like pearl necklaces or necklaces with natural stones.
To keep the balance, choose a strong print and pair it with more sober pieces
Soft, earthy colors
In 2024, the bohemian chic style is illustrated by colors that evoke nature. And we can say that fall is the ideal season for bohemian chic style. Beige, camel, burgundy or olive green mix with soft pastels and bright whites. Boho chic icons such as Sienna Miller or Kate Moss have left their mark and continue to seduce us with casual looks.
In short, the bohemian chic style gives you the opportunity to be creative with your day outfits. Long or short flowing skirts, crochet, wide, fringed blouses, short or long tweed pants, etc. Everything that says hippie to you, but always a little more refined and dirty. Unforgettable accessories are: a scarf on the arms or hair, a crown of flowers, long necklaces, Indian style, lots of long bracelets, double or triple rings. Speaking of colors, these are the psychedelic colors cleverly coordinated with more pastel tones. To help you adopt the bohemian chic style, we offer you photos that will inspire you and give you an idea of how to wear this super trendy style.
