The cottagecore trend may have ruled in years past, but in 2024, designers have revamped one of the prints most integral to the aesthetic in a major way. 

During its peak cottagecore days, gingham appeared rustic, slightly eccentric, and more often than not, DIY-inspired, but for Summer 2024, all of your favorite luxury labels and style icons have elevated the print beyond your wildest hopes and dreams.

On the runways of ultra-cool labels like Sandy Liang and Loewe, gingham appeared elegant, effortlessly feminine, and dreamy, creating the energy of an ethereal, romantic warm-weather look perfect for any occasion. From creations ranging from vintage-inspired apron dresses to oversized, chic blazers, gingham shone, carried by light pastel hues and vibrant tones alike.
