I’m usually very against anti-trend movements on social media, to the point where I try to distance myself from the madness completely. I’ve come to expect them to flare up and quickly disappear, leaving behind useless accessories and poorly chosen clothes that I’ll never wear again. That sadness! With more than 15 years of experience as an editor, I know a timeless investment when I see one, and I know what looks like a 50-step fad. So when I see eras, aesthetics and #girls flooding my feed, a strict filter is applied and I use that insight to help Who What Wear UK truly improve my skills. We strive to provide our readers with only useful information. Rather than clutter your wardrobe.
Surprisingly, I’m obsessed with the latest style trending on TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest: #gardengirl. Maybe it’s because I’ve actually started gardening as a therapeutic hobby in the last few months. Perhaps it’s the craving for nature and the desire to spend time in the great outdoors after what feels like the longest winter ever known. Maybe it’s because someone somewhere declared florals dead, but I love going against the grain. Whatever the reason, I’m clearly not alone. On Pinterest, searches for “garden aesthetics” are up 34 percent month over month, and searches for “farm life” are up 27 percent. Meanwhile, on TikTok, “garden tok” has increased by 30%, and on Instagram, he has seen over 180,000 posts related to #gardengirl.
So grab your boots and start following Monty Don. Here are the pillars of the idyllic fashion trend.
1. There are two different types of garden girls

First of all, you need to realize that there are essentially two different garden girls. One is someone who likes to get dirty with aggressive weeding, and the other is someone who likes to frolic in a quirky country garden. Making an excellent impression on the former are Daisy Jones and Six Star’s Riley Keough. From her exaggerated flower pot straw hat to her loose jeans and shirt to her ideal pair of Birkenstocks, she’s the epitome of a true #gardengirl. Joining her is former Who What Wear UK cover star Amelia Windsor. “Gardening makes me so happy. It’s so good for you,” Windsor said in her exclusive interview last year. Soil provides wonderful bacteria and provides serotonin. Volunteering in gardening allows you to meet a variety of people. I’ve met some amazing people, and if it’s done in a sustainable way, it can be great for the planet. So it’s a win-win situation. ”
2. Garden-inspired accessories are key
A carefully chosen scarf (tied at the chin, of course), a fluffy sun hat, a rustic tote or pannier bag (for carrying a large bouquet of flowers or a set of trowels), and slip-on clog-style shoes (especially worn with socks). ) etc. , gardening-inspired accessories help bring the outdoors vibe.
3. *Contains* flower print
I keep reading reports about floral prints being on the decline, but my Instagram feed tells a completely different story. When combined with summery silhouettes, floral prints are still very much present in the world of romantic dresses. Try wearing them barefoot.
4. White cotton and linen are a must
Due to the purity that garden life brings, white cotton, linen and braderie anglaise details are very important to this aesthetic.
5. Layering means wearing long dresses over pants.
Treating your dress like a working man’s pinafore (worn over pants and very long) gives you gardener vibes in the best way.
