If you’ve been keeping an eye on the latest trends, I don’t need to tell you that the boho aesthetic is back. (But just in case you didn’t hear, now you know.) A staple style of the early aughts, there’s no questioning the back-then purveyors of the best boho outfits—Mischa Barton, Sienna Miller, the Olsen twins, and the like. But in 2024, there’s a new crop of It girls embracing the free-spirited look—and they’re showing the world that it’s as chic as ever, if not more.
The original staples are still at the core of all that is boho, like chunky and suede clogs or slouchy caramel brown suede bags. And even though this “flower power” aesthetic is typically imagined in the context of spring and summer, the fall/winter 2024 runways paraded a sleeker spin on fringe and florals, incorporating contrasting textures, edgier embellishments, and darker hues. It’s true that some brands are masterfully more boho at heart (think Free People and MOTHER), but it’s also just as easy to chameleon one of your favorite fall dresses into the current boho moment with a pair of over-the-knee boots or a drapey cardigan. Below, shop the best celebrity and street style looks to wear the trend all season long.
Rebel Yell
Think boho, but make it black. While Bohemian fashion of the early 2000s might evoke paler tones and dainty floral motifs, the aesthetic revival in 2024 comes with a little bit more edge. Use feminine details like lace or moody florals to offset otherwise modern or sleek black pieces. Darker shades are a great way to carry this trend through the colder fall and winter months.

This year, nobody did boho better than Daisy Edgar-Jones. The Twisters actress has been striking the perfect balance between the trend’s elegant statement details and an otherwise natural look, thanks to her loose waves and minimal make-up. Most notably, in this sheer baby blue ensemble, which is straight off of the Chloé fall/winter 2024 runway. Opt for billowy, ruffled fabrics and sculptural accessories to emulate this style.

You don’t need to be decked out in head-to-toe crochet to make this look work. Luckily, we’re entering peak sweater season, so you can choose from an endless array of chunky crochet sweaters and knits. Create a monochromatic look with matching trousers, or opt for a two-piece set.

Summer of ’69
At its essence, bohemian fashion represents what is artistically unconventional or strays from the status quo. And there’s no better way to embody this than with fashion that pays homage to the festival style of the ’60s and ’70s. Dilute Paris Jackson’s take on color with bold or contrasting patterns and beaded or pendant jewelry.

Another characteristic at the root of the ever-evolving boho aesthetic is its subtle ode to Western wear, as seen on Bella Hadid.

Compare and Contrast
While we may be plowing past slip skirts and open-toe season, you can still capture the core of this trend with a blend of winter-worthy whites (or off-whites) and substitute staples prepared to handle the cooler weather. Choose an oversized sweater and a sheer, asymmetrical skirt contrasted with a rough-and-tumble pair of moto boots. Tip: Add a pair of skin-toned fleece leggings underneath if you can’t handle the chill.

Another undisputed truth of the boho aesthetic: There’s almost always fringe to be found. Whether it’s your skirt, pants, jacket, or handbag, you can play up this accent in a way that’s edgy and sleek, or lean into something more modern prairie.
