Every summer, there's that one defining piece -- the Havaianas, the jelly sandals, the Miu Miu cowboy hat. But this year? It's quiet. Search "summer trends 2026" and the only thing coming up is the color blue. So I brought Gab Waller back for our annual Summer trends episode. Gab is one of the most in-demand personal shoppers in fashion. She shares what her clients are buying, what's selling out, and what's all over our feeds that no one is actually requesting.


Consider this your real-time summer 2026 trend report, straight from the woman sourcing it all.

  • Why summer 2026 feels different — and the trend slowdown no one is talking about
  • The color of the summer (and why I'm fully in my blue era)
  • Gab's pick for the trending summer sandal and the thong strap moment
  • The beach bag worth investing in this season — and Gab's take on the ALC bags everyone is asking about
  • Light summer jackets and layering pieces for the in-between weather days
  • The full jean shorts debate — are we still wearing them?
  • The biggest difference Gab is seeing this summer vs. last summer
  • The one item Gab's clients are requesting on repeat right now
  • The trend all over social media that no one is actually DMing her to source
  • Whether clients are actually buying into the new designer eras — Demna at Gucci, Jonathan Anderson at Dior, and more
  • Rapid fire on the biggest trends: silk taffeta pants, CBK minimalism, cerulean blue, oversized sunnies, big buckle belts, graphic tees
  • World Cup dressing — track pants, jerseys, and the vintage workout wear comeback
