Summer outfit 2020: How to wear the trendy tropical trend!
In summer 2020: the more tropical, the better! Tropical patterns are a versatile fashion trend and were eye-catchers on the catwalks in Paris, Milan and New York. With their great colors and shapes, tropical prints put you in a good mood and make us dream of vacationing in exotic climes. We will give you ideas on how to match your summer outfit with the tropical look.
The iconic Versace pattern is experiencing a revival
When talking about dresses with tropical patterns, we should of course thank Jennifer Lopez and her long-standing friendship with Versace. The legendary tropical print made a big comeback at Versace’s Spring / Summer 2020 launch during Milan Fashion Week. This time Donatella Versace used the jungle pattern to create spectacular dresses, shirts, suits and sweatshirts. The big surprise of the fashion show was the appearance of J.Lo, who appeared in a new edition of the emerald green dress printed with palm leaves.
Dolce & Gabbana Spring-Summer 2020
In addition to Versace, other fashion houses have also adopted the jungle theme and the idea of the lively and eye-catching tropical pattern. Dolce & Gabbana presented a spring / summer 2020 collection inspired by the colorful tropical fauna and flora. The designers presented short or long dresses, pencil skirts, bustier tops, jackets and the like with zebra, giraffe, leopard and tiger prints, while colorful parrots and pelicans adorned silky shirts and skirts. Outfits with fruit prints provided more color – pineapples on bikini tops and dresses as well as summer shirts with watermelons. Tropical flowers and leaves adorned dresses, skirts, sarongs and hot pants.
Valentino Spring-Summer 2020
Pierpaolo Piccioli, creative director of Valentino, interpreted the fashion trend differently and used large tropical patterns on flowing, ankle-length pleated dresses. In combination with this, the models wore neon-colored bags and flat gladiator sandals with a braided leather cord.
The airy maxi dresses look casually elegant
And how do you put together a summer outfit with a tropical look? Since the tropical pattern is already the eye-catcher in the overall look, the rest of the outfit can be kept simple and simple. If the legwear is patterned, opt for a plain-colored top. And vice versa: combine your patterned top with plain trousers or skirt. So let the tropical pattern come to the fore.
Incidentally, tropical prints also look beautiful in combination with other patterns, e.g. with polka dots or zebra stripes. These should, however, appear more reserved and are best kept in black and white.
Summer vacation outfit
Tropical patterns are an indispensable part of the beach look. Choose a colorfully printed swimsuit that perfectly accentuates your figure. Round off the look with an airy beach kaftan or pareo scarf. You can check out a few interesting binding techniques in this article.
Summer outfit for the office
The office is the seemingly most inadequate place for tropical fantasies! However, it is entirely possible to create an elegant outfit with this playful pattern. For example, take a look at how spectacular a knee-length sheath dress with lush tropical green looks in combination with a plain deep blue blazer.
Another possibility would be to choose a small and discreet tropical pattern instead of large, graphic shapes, for example for a blouse. Combined with trousers or a pencil skirt, it will certainly not attract too much attention and still create a nice summer mood.
First date summer outfit
If you are looking for a romantic summer outfit, you have the choice between dresses and skirts, because the exotic beauty of this print comes into its own on such items of clothing. Although the summer dress is at the top of the list of summer must-haves, the elegant combination of a knee-length skirt with a tropical print and an airy blouse looks no less elegant and feminine. If you want to emphasize your waist, be sure to reach for a high-waisted skirt. Put on a more natural make-up for the first date!

To meet friends or take a long walk through the city, there are many options for a summer outfit. The most comfortable are definitely the wide-cut palazzo trousers and culottes, which are particularly popular this season!
