From a European summer comeback to an Addison Rae summer renaissance, there are distinctive aesthetics taking over our TikTok feeds — and entering our hot-weather wardrobes. One of the newest, dubbed “sardine girl summer,” is a kitschier take on spring’s fisherman aesthetic, with fish prints and sardine-shaped accessories leading the way.
Playing off the tinned fish craze of recent years, these designs transform a divisive pantry item into a playful, wearable motif. So even if you don’t like to eat sardines, you can still wear them and participate in the fishy fashion movement.
