Boho is back, but not as you know it. Back in the early 2000s, it was the signature look of off-duty It-girls (think Sienna Miller, Kate Moss and the Olsen twins) who paired tousled hair and oversized shades with layers of vintage lace and leather. Fast forward to 2025, and the trend has evolved: still romantic, still free-spirited, but far more considered. The shift began with Chemena Kamali’s AW24 debut at Chloé, a collection that breathed new life into bohemian dressing through elevated textures, statement accessories, and flowing silhouettes. Since then, the aesthetic has swept across runways from Paris to Milan, proving this soft-focus style is firmly back on the fashion agenda. From romantic ruffles to lived-in boots, we’ve rounded up 10+ pieces that capture the essence of the new boho.
