With the resurrection of early aughts fashion, it's no surprise that crochet has jumped back into the game—especially with aesthetics like cottagecore and coastal grandmother being A Thing. It was bound to have another life! And let me tell ya, I am not mad about it whatsoever. Loved for its lightweight, boho look, the trend originally popped off in the '60s and '70s, and is back in the spotlight for summer 2023. Whether you've seen crochet on the runway recently or TikTokers making their very own crochet clothing on your FYP (you're not the only one, my friend!) there's no doubt that the style will make its way into one of your warm-weather ensembles this season. I mean, it's just too cute to not!

The best part about this iteration of crochet is how creative it's become. It's not limited to just those cream-colored music festival-esque crop tops and cardigans that I know you're thinking of. We've grown up! We've expanded our horizons! Think: detailed dresses, fashion-forward swimsuits, bags, hats, shoes, and jewelry. You'll see that lots of designs have their own touch to them—from beautiful, elaborate patchwork to colorful schemes to bold accents—that really makes each crocheted piece stand out and not just any other sort of knitted apparel you've seen before. Plus, its holed composition is perfect for keeping you cool under the hot summer sun.

Ahead, 25 crochet clothing pieces you'll fall in love with. Expect adorable two-piece sets, chic frocks, fun accessories, and more. FYI, this is the perfect place to shop for that upcoming vacation you've got coming up!
