Summer is the season of bold colors, big adventures, and clothes that move with your kids—not against them. At Chic Kids, we’ve got the inside scoop on what’s trending in summer fashion for toddlers through teens, and how you can stay on-trend without overspending.
Kids’ fashion is leaning into dopamine dressing this year—think sunshine yellow, sky blue, neon pink, and grassy green. According to Vogue Business, vibrant color palettes are topping 2025 trend forecasts across all fashion sectors, including children’s wear.
Lightweight cotton and linen are perfect for long play days. The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) reports a 34% increase in demand for organic and breathable fabrics in children’s clothing as parents prioritize comfort and skin-friendly materials.
According to ThredUp’s 2024 Resale Report, 83% of parents surveyed said they are more likely to buy secondhand clothing for their kids than themselves. Why? Because kids grow quickly and resale helps reduce environmental impact without compromising quality.
At Chic Kids, you’ll find summer pieces that align with your values: pre-loved, high quality, and ready for more life.
From dinosaurs and florals to ice cream cones and surfboards, prints this season are full of fun and whimsy—and increasingly unisex. According to Business of Fashion, brands are embracing fluid design in children’s wear, and resale is a great place to find those styles affordably.
Summer often means road trips, splash parks, and late sunsets. Look for comfy rompers, soft joggers, oversized tees, and slip-on shoes—perfect for easy outfit changes and messy fun.
