From bodycon dresses and maxi skirts to throw pillows and mustachioed coffee mugs (you know the ones), chevron covered everything, best paired with a statement necklace and a pair of riding boots. It was girly, playful, and twee, spiritually synonymous with Picnik-edited OOTDs. The pattern eventually became shorthand for peak millennial decor and mall fashion, making it one of the first motifs many were happy to leave behind.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the Forever 21 racks and owl pendant necklaces of its last peak, chevron has seemingly always been embroiled in a love-hate relationship with fashion. Sure, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/missoni\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" class=\"T3D\">Missoni<\/a>&#8216;s signature stripes have long been considered immune to the trend cycle by fashion insiders. The Italian house continues to revisit the motif season after season, most recently weaving it throughout its Fall\/Winter 2026 ready-to-wear collection shown in Milan this past February. But it turns out Missoni isn&#8217;t the only one pumping out zigzags these days.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sWr iGR\">\n<div class=\"QYV\">\n<div class=\"uES fEt\">\n<div class=\"uT7\">\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/7\/8\/107a72ae\/gettyimages-2263038993.jpg?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"MO9\">Missoni Fall Winter 2026 Ready-To-Wear <cite>Courtesy of Getty Images<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<div class=\"FDO\">\n<div class=\"vmZ XJ- jWP\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/imgix.bustle.com\/uploads\/image\/2026\/7\/8\/f303c8bc\/mcqueen.avif?w=374&amp;dpr=2\" alt class=\"EdX\"><\/div><figcaption class=\"MO9\">Women\u2019s Manta Bag in Multicolor<cite>Courtesy of McQueen<\/cite><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"yOD GLK\">\n<div class=\"ki0 kpP\">\n<div class=\"MNV\"><\/div>\n<p><label for=\"lightboxCheckbox-476647516\" class=\"QNb y8V St5\"><button aria-label=\"open lightbox\" class=\"kMc\"><\/button><\/label><\/div>\n<div class=\"C1C\">\n<div class=\"ZXG\">\n<div class=\"F6c\"><button class=\"ikQ VkL\"><\/button>1 \/ 2<button class=\"ikQ Olc\"><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"LOc\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"igl f5y\"><button class=\"ikQ Xfx\"><span class=\"Od1\">INFO<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"itG\">1 \/ 2<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Last month, McQueen revealed its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DZ-Q5mvFxYC\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\" class=\"T3D\">Autumn Winter 2026 Pre-collection<\/a>, peppered with chevron patterns and wishbone details.

We\u2019re in the sweet spot where a trend exists just enough to feel fresh, but not yet absolutely everywhere (I\u2019m looking at you, grommets).<\/p>\n<p>Its return feels right on schedule. Fashion continues to mine the early 2010s for inspiration, from Demna&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/fashion\/gucci-demna-new-handbags-jackie-borsetto-celebrity-roundup\" class=\"T3D\">debut Gucci collection<\/a> embracing indie sleaze to the continued reign of ballet flats, bubble hems, and even peplums. But unlike some era-specific relics (remember galaxy print leggings?), chevron feels surprisingly primed for a second act. Instead of the bright, candy-colored stripes of yesteryear, today\u2019s versions are subtly rendered in monochrome, woven into textured fabrics, or incorporated as tailoring details. As fashion continues its obsession with bold, graphic patterns (leopard being wardrobe staple, snakeskin slithering back, and zebra appearing, well, <em>everywhere<\/em>), think of chevron as the structured successor to the animal print boom.<\/p>\n<p>The 20-year trend cycle may have put chevron back on our mood board, but unlike some of its fellow early-2010s revivals, this one actually feels like a natural evolution. Call it nostalgia if you want, but this comeback is less about reliving the past and more about giving the zigzag a second chance.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"fX2 rhF jIS\">\n<div>\n<div style=\"display:block\" class=\"lqj TnP\">\n<div class=\"BMP\">\n<div class=\"oHL\">Style + Culture, delivered straight to your inbox.<\/div>\n<div class=\"wCn\">\n<div class=\"Yte yjy DSW\"><\/div>\n<p><button class=\"Ex8 qgj\"><span>Submit<\/span><\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"uxm\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"g-0\">By subscribing to this BDG newsletter, you agree to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bdg.com\/info\/terms-of-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Terms of Service<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bdg.com\/info\/privacy-policy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">Privacy Policy<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nylon.com\/newsletter\">Subscribe to our newsletter &gt;<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>.page-476622382{&#8211;slot3:#e6c6c5;&#8211;slot4:#955de0;&#8211;slot6:#955de0;&#8211;slot8:#e6c6c5} Fashion The Runway Says Chevron Is Next Just when you thought you&#8217;d retired your early 2010s Pinterest boards for good. by Sam Tracy 10 minutes ago If fashion is a pendulum, then chevron has officially started swinging back.
