March fashion news

With dark, snowy days in the rearview mirror, March always feels like a breath of fresh air. And the same could be said for the fashion world. Now that spring is nigh (March 20!), brands are releasing must-have looks for your new-season wardrobe. Los Angeles-based label Frank & Eileen, for instance, just launched a co-created collection with actor Julianne Moore, featuring a breezy white button-up you’ll wear on repeat over the next few months. Then there’s the Lisa Says Gah and Polly Pocket capsule, which is sure to wake up your spring wardrobe (think colorful, print-happy pieces galore).

And if you're hoping to get out of the house this spring and pick up a new hobby? Puma and LaQuan Smith encourage you to put on your boxing gloves and step into the ring. The brands dropped their second collaboration, which centers around staples for the sport. Most exciting of all, the collaboration includes two new versions of its beloved Speedcat sneakers. And these aren’t the only kicks to put on your wishlist this month. HOKA’s latest partnership is with — drumroll, please — Marni. Colorful and cool, the footwear is made for maximalists.

Before we give away too many spoilers, scroll ahead for a breakdown of March’s fashion news. Check back often, too, as this post will include more updates throughout this month.
