Every fashion season brings its own set of trends, and summer is no exception. While French women are celebrated for their effortless chic style, Italians dazzle with their elegance and flamboyance. Danes are known for their vibrant color combinations and flattering silhouettes. Meanwhile, the Portuguese have emerged as influencers in mixing patterns, particularly over the last year. But have you ever considered how Spanish women dress?
TikTok has become a treasure trove of videos featuring girls from various countries visiting Spain and noticing our unique style. Videos under the hashtag #howtodresslikeaspanishgirl showcase similar fashion patterns that define the looks we love to create. Many trends highlight oversized tops, loose high-waisted pants, trendy sneakers like New Balance 530s or Adidas Samba, and stylish neck scarves or casually draped jackets. We reached out to international friends for their perspectives and explored feeds from the young influencers who represent us best. Here’s a look at the standout summer styles among Spanish women.
Open Shirts Over T-Shirts
While extravagance may not define us, absolute simplicity is far from our style. When a look becomes too plain, we often turn to an effective styling trick: layering an unbuttoned shirt over a T-shirt or dress. This shirt can be a vibrant color, a neutral tone, or a striped print, adding visual interest effortlessly.

Tailored Bermuda Shorts
Everyone knows that denim cut-offs are trendy, but we favor tailored Bermuda shorts with pleats, preferably in neutral tones or black. Paired with flat shoes and basic tops like simple lycra shirts or blouses, these have become a staple that we reach for as the weather warms. Some even pair them with ankle boots for an edgier take.

Pajama Pants
This trend is global, but with Spanish brands like Stradivarius and Hand Over collaborating to release pajama pants collections, it’s clear we have a fondness for this style. Once unimaginable, pajama pants now occupy a prominent place in our wardrobes. We opt for subtle stripes or checks and pair them with simple tops and trench coats for cooler days.

Matching Pajama Sets
If we’re wearing pajama pants, why not go for the complete set? Pajama sets have become essential in our closets. Often in floral patterns and silky fabrics, these sets work for both everyday wear and special occasions.

Crochet or Net Dresses
Near the coast, these dresses are often worn in their sheer form over swimsuits, while on the streets, they typically come with liners underneath. Crochet or net dresses have been a favorite as warm weather approaches. Their structure accentuates curves and instantly elevates any look without the need for much else—just add flat shoes to complete the outfit.

Printed Pants
When in doubt about what to wear, opting for a printed pant is our go-to choice. These stylish pieces can be anything from leopard print to floral embroidery. They are easily matched with plain tops for a balanced look.

White Pants
We have always championed the white pants trend, wearing them year-round. However, summer calls for linen fabrics with a relaxed fit, paired with flat shoes—our essential combination.

Linen Sets
When it comes to linen, we adore two-piece sets made from this natural fiber. Matching tops and bottoms in the same material and color provide breathability for the summer. Even before it became trendy, we were sporting these ensembles.

Knit Dresses
Few garments can transform an outfit like a knit dress. Despite their simplicity, these dresses can flatter in earthy tones or black. For winter, we wear them with closed necklines and long sleeves; however, summer days favor those with necklines and strategic slits.

Loose-Fitting Dresses
On the relaxed end of the spectrum are loose-fitting dresses. Whether featuring puffed sleeves or thin straps, these designs pinch slightly at the bodice and flow freely at the skirt, making them the ultimate summer winners. They are easy to wear, comfortable, lightweight, and versatile.
