Classy, airy, and shamelessly glamorous, the fringe has been upgraded by Amal Clooney.
Fringe is no longer a festival thing. Seen in Lake Como recently, Amal Clooney was seen in a loose fringe outfit that was decidedly Riviera goddess (not boho rocker). She looked like what we all just witnessed at Copenhagen Fashion Week: fringe has returned, but it is no longer a lowly fringe; it has been dressed up, done up, and all-around jet set friendly.
2025 Fringe Renaissance
Designers across Denmark to Milan are rethinking fringe as something not disorderly, but a skewed feminine appeal. Think:
Long, silky hair that sways like water
Frayed edgings of satin slip dresses
Embellished linen co-ordinates and evening dresses.Big, glamorous fringe, even on linen co-ords and evening dresses
Fringe has become a texture, rather than a gimmick, and Amal sets the deal.
Here is How to Wear Fringe Like You Are in Lake Como
And you want to invest a bit in the Amal vibe this summer? And this is how to do it:
1. Use a Neutral or Black and White Palette
Black, cream, or soft metallic fringe is luxe-not costume-like.
2. Select Clean, Drapey silhouettes.
Search slip dresses, a kaftan, or a cut set with minimal fringe design, which blows in the wind.
3. Choose Luxe Fabrics
The appearance Amal was using was successful, since the fringe was not crunchy but fluid. Try viscose, blends, or soft knits of jersey cotton.
4. Clean Accessories Keep Accessories Polished
There are minimalist gold ringlets, well-groomed shoes, and large glasses that make the image not yet retro.
5. Fringe Speak
There is no occasion to go to extremes. One of these elements will take you a long way: a fringed hemline, a sleeve element, or an isolated statement piece.
Final Word
It is fringe that is extraneous to the desert or the rodeo–it is fringe applied to a yacht in Italy, or a rooftop party, or a fancy-dancy date night. Amal Clooney has made this previously very-niche detail the template of sophisticated summer glamour.
So when you are in the mood for a trend that is all about movement with you, and speaks softly, and stuns quietly, Fringe may well become your Lake Como moment.
