Stylists reveal 7 shirt trends that are in and 5 that are out this year

It's hard to look anywhere without seeing a crop top these days, according to Lana Blanc, fashion and personal stylist. The style has been popular for the past few years now, and it doesn't seem to be fading yet.

"One of the reasons this trend continues to be so strong is it looks great styled with a lot of other current trends such as high-waisted denim, cargo pants or jeans, column skirts, and oversized silhouettes," the stylist told Insider.

Boxy and structured tops are another trend, according to celebrity wardrobe stylist Denise Styless. 

"They provide a modern and chic silhouette that can be easily dressed up or down," the stylist said. "Plus, they offer a comfortable and relaxed fit while still maintaining a polished appearance."

They can be worn in a variety of settings, from the workplace to a night out with friends.

According to Patrick Kenger, personal and celebrity menswear stylist and founder of Pivot Image Consulting, camp-collar shirts are a trend that's going strong this year. They're characterized by a one-piece collar that lies flat against the shirt.

"Camp-collar shirts are the perfect top for summer," he told Insider. "They're the perfect way to add a modern touch to your everyday short-sleeve button-down shirts."

Styless said another style you'll be seeing more of throughout the year is the wrap top.

"Wrap tops are versatile, comfortable, and flattering for many body types," the stylist told Insider. "They can be dressed up or down and come in a variety of styles, patterns, and colors, making them a popular choice for many occasions." 

Additionally, the wrap design allows for a customizable fit, which can add to their appeal.

"Spring 2023 is all about the logo," Blanc told Insider. "The bigger the bolder the better." 

The stylist recommended looking for logo shirts from popular brands like Prada, Loewe, Celine, Miu Miu, Gucci, Valentino, Givenchy, and Balenciaga.

Sheer fabric is everywhere right now, according to Styless.

"Sheer tops add a touch of elegance and femininity to any outfit," she told Insider. "They are lightweight, breathable, and versatile, making them perfect for layering and adding texture to an ensemble." 

Sheer fabrics can also be dressed up or down, making them suitable for a wide range of occasions.

Versatile, feminine off-the-shoulder tops have also become a fashion favorite due to their ability to flatter a variety of body types, according to Styless.

"They can be dressed up or down, and they add a touch of glamour and sophistication to any outfit," the stylist told Insider. 

The cut can showcase the shoulders, collarbones, and neck in a flattering way.

"This can be a great way to add a subtle touch of sexiness to your look," Styless said.

Blanc said it's time to push your fitted button-downs to the back of the closet. The style is being replaced by oversized cuts.

The stylist recommended opting for oversized poplin tops with puffy sleeves or oversized button-downs paired with anything from midi skirts to cargo pants.

Another trend you won't be seeing as much this year is the V-neck T-shirt, according to Kenger. The cut tends to ride the waves of fashion trends, whereas crew-neck T-shirts are more timeless. 

"V-necks happen to be out of fashion right now," the stylist told Insider. "It's best to stick with something classic like a great-fitting plain crew neck."

Basic tank tops have been updated with a few small changes for a fresh take this year, according to Blanc. Ribbed tanks, in particular, are replacing basic versions.

The stylist also said that tank tops with cutout shoulder details are gaining traction.

Flashy is out and natural is in, according to Kenger. 

"Shirts that have a lot of sheen to them appear cheap and sometimes a bit 'try-hard,'" the stylist told Insider. 

Instead, he recommended muted- or softer-colored shirts, which look more natural and go with modern looks.

The classic camisole is officially out of date, according to Blanc. To replace the wardrobe staple, the stylist recommended opting for a sheer top instead. 

"Swap your sexy camisole for a sexy sheer top and be the envy of all your friends," she told Insider. "Pair it with a denim midi skirt or cargo pants for extra credit."
