The Resurgence of Maximalism

For the last few years (what has felt like an eternity), minimalism, “clean girl aesthetic,” and "quiet luxury" have reigned supreme, but as of late, there’s been a *dare I say* resurgence of maximalism. After years of neutral tones and a lack of silhouettes, there seems to be this craving of self-expression— thank God.

Of course social media always plays a role in movements like these— influencers leaning into “more is more”-esque looks. But it isn’t necessarily about excess either— it’s about embracing individuality and having fun with fashion. There has been a huge shift in focus on building meaningful wardrobes. There’s more visibility on mixing and reworking pieces that really leans into personal style and feels both creative AND sustainable. Maximalism looks different for everyone— it’s about having fun with fashion and feeling empowered to experiment with what feels uniquely yours.

As fashion moves toward a more expressive, meaningful approach to how we dress, this resurgence serves as a reminder that style should feel personal, exciting, and uniquely our own.
