Sardine girl summer is upon us
We’ve had hot girl summer, Barbiecore summer, tomato girl summer and, more recently, Brat summer – but this year, the seasonal zeitgeist takes a slightly different (and a lot more fishy) direction. The style set has cast its net far and wide in search of the next big trend. The catch of the day? Sardines. And not just the kind you get in a tin. Beaded, embroidered, cast in gold – these sardines have a fashion-forward edge.
Feeling like a fish out of water? Not for long. Here’s how to get the look with a few carefully curated accessories.

Sardine Fashion Is Having A Moment
There’s a new trend swimming onto the scene – literally. Sardines are the walking fish of the season, taking over the fashion landscape (and seascape) with gusto. This is a trend that has been brewing a while. Sardine fashion follows in the footsteps (tail flips?) of coastal grandma and fisherman core, but with an emphasis on playful design, maximalist detailing and dopamine drenched colour palettes.

And while these little fishes have place in fashion – graphic t-shirts, knitted vests and two-piece beach co-ords – this season is all about the accessories. Think sardine handbags (STAUD is home to the viral beaded bag, while Anthropologie houses the high street must-have), purses, bag charms, jewellery, hair pieces and more.
