Boho is back and breezier than ever for summer 2025. With bohemian fashion searches up 50% from last year and our favorite brands reinventing boho staples in fresh hues and textures, there's never been a better time to embrace your inner free spirit. But if the thought of revamping your entire wardrobe feels daunting, we have great news: all you need is a capsule collection of versatile pieces to mix-and-match your way through the sunniest season.
To bring you some boho inspo, we scoured the collections to curate the ultimate boho capsule — an effortless edit of breezy dresses, earth-toned separates and just the right pops of print to conjure that carefree, toss-it-on-and-go summer magic. The best part? These key pieces combine to create a month's worth of looks that work from beach to brunch and beyond. Consider this your blueprint for embodying modern bohemian flair at its unfussy finest.
The Building Blocks: Separates in Earth Tones and Eclectic Prints
Here's our entire capsule wardrobe in boho aesthetic
At the heart of your boho capsule are six versatile tops and bottoms that can be endlessly combined to nail that effortless, lived-in vibe. Start with a few pairs of breezy shorts in denim (Sea), cotton (Isabel Marant) and luxe leather (Magda Butrym) to rotate all summer long — the styling options are endless (if 3 pairs feel overwhelming, opt for just one pair of denim shorts — denim goes with absolutely everything). Next, add a sheer maxi skirt (Chloé), semi-sheer printed pants (Chloé) and flared wide-leg crop jeans (Madewell) to round out your mix-and-match bottoms.
This romantic blouse is going to be one of the cornerstone pieces in our capsule wardrobe. Isabel Marant, Moda Operandi
For tops, a romantic ruffled camisole (Chloé), simple tanks in dressy beaded (Maje) and casual fabrics (Zimmermann), an embroidered peasant blouse with on-trend tassels (Isabel Marant), and light sweaters in solid (Alaia) and intricately embroidered versions (Sea) offer plenty of variety. The earthy color palette of ivory, sand, caramel and deep olive unites the separates and makes print-mixing a breeze.
The Throw-On-and-Go Heroes: Boho Dresses
Dresses that scream "artisanal" are among the most versatile pieces in any boho closet. Siedrés, Moda Operandi
No bohemian wardrobe is complete without a couple easy, one-and-done dresses. Here, a flowy silk mini (Chloé) and a sweeping cotton maxi in a lace patchwork (Siedrés) serve up unstudied elegance for day and night. Just add sandals and a fringed bag, and you're out the door.
The Outfit-Making Toppers: Eclectic Outerwear
This crop jacket in blush suede can be easily styled in boho, western or even Barbie-core. Madewell
For cool summer evenings and aggressive A/C, a trio of outfit-making outerwear is a must. A suede jacket in a warm tan hue (Madewell), the coziest fringed cardigan (Sandro) and a 70s-style suede vest with whipstitch trim (Giuliva Heritage) have you covered — literally. Top off gauzy dresses, distressed denim and airy skirts with these substantial layers for instant polish.
The Free-Spirited Extras: Shoes, Bags & Bijoux
These sunnies are not only large, but also floral-trimmed — perfect for boho girlies! Anthropologie
No boho look is complete without the right finishing touches. In the footwear department, it's all about no-fuss silhouettes with a handcrafted feel — think knee-high suede boots (Khaite), woven leather ballet flats (Cult Gaia), block-heeled suede city sandals (Ulla Johnson) and jeweled beachy thongs (Gianvito Rossi).
For accessories, prioritize natural materials and a collected, globetrotter aesthetic. A rounded woven leather tote (Dragon Diffusion) is perfect for the farmer's market, while an embroidered suede crossbody with swishy fringe (Valentino Garavani) telegraphs wanderlust. Delicate layered necklaces (Ramy Brook), wood chunky pendant necklace (Julietta), textured hoops (Mignonne Gavigan), droplet gold tone earrings (Ramy Brook), a stack of chunky beaded bracelets (Ben-Amun), playful bubble bracelet (Brinker + Eliza), everyday textured ring (Meadowlark) and a statement floral ring (Prada) look effortlessly eclectic piled together. Top it all off with a patterned silk scarf fashioned into a turban — or opt for an actual turban, like we did! (Julia Clancey) — and large sunnies (by Anthropologie) for mysterious allure.
