Fashion constantly evolves, and what was at the peak of popularity not so long ago may now seem outdated. To look modern and relevant, it's important to know which items should be left in the past.
RBC-Ukraine shares insights into which trends have become out of style in 2025, and why they no longer belong in your wardrobe.
Long denim skirt
Long skirts are gradually losing their popularity, although their demand used to depend on the season. In recent years, they remained at the top of fashion trends, but according to insiders, interest in this style is slowly fading.

Chunky footwear
Chunky footwear is gradually losing its status as a fashion trend. Even Demna Gvasalia, who previously actively used this style in Balenciaga collections, increasingly avoids it in his shows. While XXL sneakers were highly popular a few seasons ago, they now give way to other models.
Cargo
What was once extremely popular is losing relevance in 2025. For example, cargo pants are no longer in demand and are now waiting for their next revival period.

Neon shades
Neon shades are gradually becoming a thing of the past. The fashion community has always treated them cautiously since excessive use of such colors easily leads to oversaturation. Nevertheless, bright palettes will always remain symbolic of certain eras, such as the '90s.
