Below are the Top Five Trends we spotted for Spring + Summer 2026 along with some current S4H projects that feature each of the styles. Use the links to click through to any of these FREE projects.
Fabulous Fringe
It’s an embellishment that moves. Fringe can be lush + dense or light + frilly. It’s the most dynamic way to add texture.
Expressive Ruffles
From dreamy, cascading tiers to subtle, whimsical accents; ruffles rock. In a land of sharp seams, they soften + sculpt.
Primary Colors
Top designers call it “joyful maximalism.” Bold reds, vibrant blues, sunny yellows – even neons can power up a project.
Bold Florals
Flowers have always been a fabric favorite; now the blooms are bigger, more artistic, and in a wider variety of colors.
Strong Neutrals
They are timeless, and provide a quiet grounding and sophisticated balance to the season’s otherwise high-energy trends.
