5 Trends Barcelona-Based Fashion People Are Into

There’s a lot to love about the Barcelona fashion scene, but what amazed me the most during my trip was the number of boutiques spotlighting brands I’d never heard of throughout the winding streets of the city. I popped into store after store, and it felt like there was an endless number of new names to know and learn. I didn’t go on the trip prepared to make a ton of purchases, so now I feel like I need to return to Barcelona with room in my suitcase and a budget for shopping. While I didn’t get to shop, I did get to indulge in people watching, and not a minute went by that I didn’t see someone who’s personal style was intriguing.

I knew from the many hours I spent scrolling through TikTok that Barcelona has a unique fashion scene. People aren’t afraid to experiment and are always flaunting new brands that haven’t even come across my desk yet. I spent the weekend at one of the most comfortable hotels I’ve ever been to, Soho House Barcelona, and with some of the best dressed people coming in and out of the doors there, I was constantly inspired. I took notes throughout my stay, and there were five trends in particular that stood out to me among Barcelona natives and visitors alike. Allow me to rave about them below.

I had a feeling maxi skirts would be all over the streets of Barcelona, so I only packed floor-length hemlines. During this time of year, when things are just starting to warm up, I was well-prepared with this staple on hand and will be wearing it in NYC, too.
