Maximalism is a fashion trend that has gained popularity in recent years. This style is all about bold prints, bright colours, and mixing patterns to create a visually stimulating look. If however, you’re interested in trying out maximalist fashion, here are some tips for incorporating it into your wardrobe:
Start with one statement piece
When you’re new to maximalism, it can be overwhelming to try to mix and match a lot of bold patterns and colours. Start out slowly. With this purpose in mind, start by choosing one statement piece. You can choose a bright, patterned jacket or a colourful skirt at first. Then build your outfit around it.
Mix and match patterns
One of the hallmarks of maximalism is the mixing and matching of different patterns. Try pairing a polka dot shirt with a floral skirt or striped pants with a plaid blazer. The key is to make sure that the patterns are different enough that they don’t clash, but similar enough that they complement each other.
Layer, layer, layer
Maximalism is all about creating a visually complex look, and layering is a great way to achieve that. Try layering a patterned shirt over a graphic tee or a colourful sweater over a patterned dress. The key is to mix and match different textures and colours to create a cohesive look.
Accessorize
Accessories are a great way to add some maximalist flair to your outfit without going overboard. Try adding a statement necklace, bold earrings, or a colourful scarf to your outfit. Remember, the goal is to create a visually interesting look that reflects your personality and style.

Remember, maximalist fashion is all about expressing yourself and having fun with fashion. Don’t be afraid to experiment with bold colours and patterns, and most importantly, wear what makes you feel confident and comfortable. You don’t have to be dull and shy when you can be bold and confident. I realize that people want so badly to associate elegance with boring grey, and white pastel colours. But not us bestie, never us.
