Flowing fabrics, wild hearts, and a touch of rebellion – boho is back in a big way, but not how you remember it. Think texture, movement, and a new kind of freedom: sun-bleached lace, retro-rock details, and accessories made for dancing barefoot in the dust.
Each of these looks take the spirit of bohemian and makes it modern. Whether you’re a free-spirited romantic, a vintage magpie, or a maximalist dreamer, these are the pieces redefining the boho bride for 2025 and beyond.
