Amal Clooney stepped out in Lake Como wearing an off-the-shoulder dress with tiers of white fringe.
Fringe is the statement detail we’re seeing more and more of: Julianne Moore, Halle Berry, and Tracee Ellis Ross have all embraced the trend.
With boho-chic on the rise, you can expect to see more fringe in the fall. Shop the trend from $28.

There’s no better proof that boho is back than the fact that suddenly fringe is everywhere. Stars have become quietly loyal to the detail that transforms even the most basic styles into statement pieces. Some have kept it simple—like Tracee Ellis Ross, who opted for a Western-inspired bag—while others have embraced the extra-ness of the detail. Julianne Moore wore a skirt with a thigh-high leg slit covered in black strings, Halle Berry elevated simple pants with a Cousin Itt-esque top, and, just this week, Amal Clooney was spotted in Lake Como wearing an off-the-shoulder maxi dress covered in tiers of white fringe.

Clearly, fringe is on its way to being one of fall’s biggest trends, but the outfit-making detail can be a little tricky. At its best, it gives Chloé, but at its worst, it can veer into costume territory. And because I don’t want you looking like a Party City flapper, I did the part of finding nine boho-chic styles for you, from just $28.

9 Trending Boho-Chic Fringe Styles

Pixie Market Fringe Cotton Tee Dress

Amazon

Pixie Market’s cotton fringe dress is the most wearable version of Clooney’s. The style still has that long fringe skirt, but it comes at the end of a casual-cool white T-shirt dress. IMO, it’s the perfect balance of everyday and extra.

Milumia Fringe Knitted Tank Top

Amazon

To shop the boho-chic trend for less, grab this $28 open-knit tank top with a stringy fringe hem. This is a great summer-to-fall style. The breathable top could be worn over a bikini for an Ibiza-inspired pool day, and come October, you could layer a white button-down underneath to make the trending piece a little dressier (and less sheer).

Steve Madden Morina Sandals

Revolve

Steve Madden’s heeled Morina sandals are the most low-key way to embrace this not-so-low-key trend. The shoe’s strap is adorned with a strip of black fringe. That small pop of the trending texture is just enough to elevate simple dresses or jeans without it overwhelming the outfit. For the risk averse, these are the move.

Zara Fringed Strapless Midi Dress

Zara

Zara took the LBD to a whole new level with a long knit overlay on top of a classic strapless mini. Of all the trending styles, this one is my favorite; it’s an update on a classic that’s modern and cool without being so trendy that it becomes intimidating to wear.

Farm Rio x Anthropologie Sleeveless Stripe Midi Dress

Anthropologie

Farm Rio’s bold prints and loud colors have made the brand the place to shop for summer styles, and its striped knit dress, complete with a colorful fringe hem, is the style I want to spend my entire vacation in. Bonus: It’s currently an extra 40 percent off.

Madewell the Sculptural Buckle Crossbody Bag

Madewell

If you, like Tracee Ellis Ross, prefer to take a more casual approach to fringe, grab this suede bag from Madewell that looks nearly identical to her Western-inspired style. The crossbody bag has a pretty classic look save for one detail: the angled flap closure that’s finished with long suede fringe shoppers say, “adds perfect Western [and] boho flair.”

Maje Fringed Cardigan

Nordstrom

I’m obsessed with Maje’s fringed cardigan, which features chic gold buttons, front patch pockets, and a small bit of fringe at the chest and back. That trending detail makes the elegant lady jacket a little less stuffy.

By Anthropologie Beaded Fringe Floral Shoulder Bag

Anthropologie

Beaded bags are the Gen Z-approved style I’m loving right now; thanks to the accessory’s intricate design and bold colors, the statement piece is an outfit-maker. Anthropologie’s garden-inspired one with long, beaded fringe can make even the simplest of outfits pop.

Reformation Rafi Lo-Rise Skirt

Reformation

Reformation’s Rafi column skirt finds this perfect balance between sophisticated and cool, so you’re going to find that you can wear it with just about anything. That silhouette and color lend themselves well to dressier looks, but the fringe trim cuts back some of the formality. You can wear it with a silky blouse, white T-shirt, and everything in between.
