Blokette is an emerging hybrid style in the fashion world, cleverly blending two visually distinct aesthetic concepts – Blokecore and Coquette (sports + ballet elements). It combines sporty elements with feminine design elements, playing with the concept of gendered dressing to create a fashion aesthetic that is both casual and genuine, yet with a touch of feminine charm.

It’s a bold mix-and-match style that appeals to those who like to challenge traditions and seek personalized styles.
CELINE
CELINE’s 2024 Spring/Summer women’s collection, themed “TOMBOY,” infuses a strong Parisian flavor into millennial trends, striking a clever balance between classicism and new-generation style. The collection primarily adopts a minimalist style, with refinement tinged with a touch of casualness, adding a sporty chic feel to the overall look.
Using silver metal as the main material, it incorporates basic elements such as rectangular flat elongated ornaments and chains, exuding sophistication without compromising on texture. The collection pays homage to the Hollywood street style of the 2000s with French-inspired outfits that are casual, elegant, and feminine.
Key Element
Vibrant Stripes
Using bright and vivid colors, the stripes transition sequentially, enhancing the textural layers. Overlapping coverage forms gradients or clearly separated stripes, with small color blocks added as accents or clustered stripes with a sense of disorder. Light effects create a shimmering effect on the metal, enhancing the visual experience.
Arranging and alternating ropes or lines in a woven manner creates interesting striped effects. Thick and thin lines interweave, diagonal crossover designs, and alternating tightness express a sense of fluidity and dynamism.
Different colored threads, ropes, and other materials are woven into stripes, with the width of the stripe lines changing according to the weaving sequence. The addition of sequins, crystals, and other scattered accents presents a vibrant striped style.
Key Element
Casual Lettering
Simple, retro letter slogans combine casual street style with a girlish feel, creating a sweet and cool sporty atmosphere. Mixing letters of different materials and effects enhances layering, while embossed, hollowed-out, embossed, or hot-stamped designs give letters a three-dimensional feel. Adding elements like chains and pearls accentuates the main letters, exuding a simple and elegant fashion charm.
Letters with curved beauty and different handwritten styles create a sense of era or personal style. Small gemstones or crystals are inlaid in the fonts. Enhanced metal texture details increase the sense of quality and touch.
Key Element
Sports Ball Elements
Integrating elements from soccer, football, basketball, and other sports with a spicy girl style creates a sporty girl image. Colors are bright and vivid, using the main colors of sports as the primary palette. Gradient colors are added to make the design visually smoother, using color to evoke rich sporting connotations and visual pleasure.
Mini sports ball elements are often combined with single items and colors, giving a fresh and coherent feel. Pendants are designed with three-dimensional ball or racket face structures, with decorative details incorporating related elements such as net lines and racket patterns.
Dynamic elements like ball shapes or crossed rackets are extracted to form patterns. Multiple colors are used to enhance visual layering.
Key Element
Denim Texture
After years of style changes, denim is making a comeback. This is mainly seen in CHANEL’s 2024 Spring/Summer denim series, as well as new styles from Givenchy and Hermes. The unique texture of denim, such as wrinkles and seams, is utilized in design details. Denim colors like washed-out blue and black are used to enhance texture.
Chain links connect different parts of the denim design, highlighting the unique charm of denim. Mixing chains of different textures enhances layering, balancing the hardness of metal and adding flavor to the jewelry.
Denim enamel is used as the main body, full of personality. It’s paired with shiny chains or metal accessories, with denim enamel patterns enhancing visual layers. Metal edges decorate the main outline of the jewelry, highlighting the enamel texture and main body, providing a rich textural experience.
Key Element
Edge Decorations
Colors or materials that match the main body are chosen for edge decorations, enhancing overall visual consistency. Linear or lace-like designs add layers to the edges. Different materials like pearls and crystals are mixed for edge accents, enhancing visual quality.
Enamel techniques are used to design lace patterns on the edges of the main jewelry body. Enamel edge decorations follow patterns like hearts and stars, offering rich colors and designs. Glossy metal frames complement the enamel effect.
Ribbon-like decorations adorn different parts of the jewelry, incorporating popular elements for a hand-drawn effect, maintaining inner elegance while adding a sense of line to the appearance.
