4. Minimalist Style

Minimalismis still riding the fashion wave from last season, and it is here to stay for the summer. Minimalist flair fits right in line with the more casual fashions of summertime. An analogue design is a minimalist style that is high on fashion, but low key enough for summer. Kate Spade, Tissot, and Citizen’s Limited Edition L Ambiluna stand out as masters of designer minimalism.
