Once synonymous with ’70s-themed costumes, wearing long blouses with flared jeans has ironically now become the most modern way to embrace the trendy boho look. However, it’s no longer about embracing an outrageous or attention-getting outfit. Today’s take on the dress-over-jeans formula stands out for its emphasis on elegant basics and sophisticated style.
We’ve noticed all the women with great taste we know have been embracing tops with extra-long hemlines and boho aesthetics, thanks in part to the popularity of recent collections at Chloé and Etro. Blouses with charming ruffles are very much in style, while others offer a more minimalist approach. The interesting thing, however, is that these extra-long blouses seem to go particularly well with flared jeans. The combination seems to be the secret to the perfect boho-chic outfit.
Below, some of our favorite long-blouses-and-flared-jeans outfits to wear in summer 2025 for that boho look.
Want to be on trend for summer? Find something in a floral-lace design, white, sleeveless, almost ankle-length, and with an elegantly bohemian aesthetic. Pair it with classic ’70s-style jeans in a light wash, and the wide trouser leg allows you to add platforms to the mix. The result? A boho look so retro it becomes modern again. With this, you’ll instantly stand out.
There’s something magical about wearing a romantic ruffled blouse with jeans that have a subtle sparkle. It reminds us of the fashion of the 2000s, when celebrities wore dresses over pants and adopted a carefree, playful approach to style. Today, the most fashion-savvy insiders are wearing tops that hit below the hips with layers of charming ruffles. They look divine over light bell-bottomed jeans, especially if they have subtle studs or crystals that add even more texture to the look. Add a tan suede jacket and matching booties for a boho-chic outfit that’s very much in the style of Chloé.
If there’s one thing we’ve learned from the recent runways of Etro, Zimmermann, and Chloé, to name a few, it’s that a long blouse is the new tank top. In other words, these oversized garments have become the easiest way to add a relaxed air to your outfit. It’s counterintuitive, given their elegant style, but the bohemian spirit of a blouse with long sleeves and ruffle details—especially one in transparent or satin-silk fabric—does all the talking. Combine it with flared jeans and platform clogs to finish the look.
Yes, even the most simple blouses are getting exaggerated twists. In this case, a minimalist white, strapless top has been given a bow so long it’s almost to the ankles. The best way to style it? With wide-leg jeans and heels that match the top. It’s distinctive without having to go too far out of your comfort zone and ideal for a night out.
Another winning street-style outfit combo: A (very) long transparent blouse or dress over jeans. Sleeveless pieces in black are especially easy to style and go with nearly everything. The look above combines them with leopard ballet flats for a modern outfit that can transition from day to night.
If you don’t want the dress-over-jeans outfit to look too Y2K or ’70s influenced, the best thing to do is to wear elegant, sophisticated pieces like a long satin dress with classic flared jeans. Seal the look with a blazer and black pumps, and you’ll have an outfit that’s impeccably chic.
Denim on denim doesn’t have to look like a Y2K costume, as long as you select pieces that are trending in summer 2025. Flared skinny jeans (yes, that’s a thing!) are a fresh way to approach this look, and they pair well with a denim minidress for a modern take. Add a white T-shirt underneath—and maybe even a denim jacket, if you’re feeling brave—for a layered look that’s great for casual social occasions.
