Even if you’re not familiar with the term ‘normcore‘, you must have seen it on the streets. It represents a unisex fashion trend, where the outfits are created with pieces as neutral as possible. The colors are basic — white, gray, black, and the items are shapeless, a lot of oversized and relaxed peces. Normcore gives you a lot of room to play with your clothes.

If you want to get on board with this trend, here is our suggestion for creating the best normcore looks.

10 Normcore essentials

No.1 Farleigh Slim Mom Jeans In Casper Flat Blue by ASOS

From all the choices you have when it comes to pants, mom jeans are the best fit to pull out the normcore trend. They are great for combining with everything this style offers.

No.2 Pure Color Turn Down Collar Long Sleeves Shirt

A plain white shirt that’s bit oversized is kind of the staple piece for this fashion trend. Keep it as simple as you can!

No.3 Shawl Neck Gray Wool Coat

When it comes to coats, you want them baggy and in basic colors. This gray one is as close to perfect as it gets.

No.4 Marc By Marc Jacobs Greenwich Sneakers

Shoes also need to be unisex and neutral. White, gray or black sneakers are the best choice.

No.5 Pure Color Long Sleeve Loose Shirt

Besides a white one, you’re going to need a black shirt so you could mix and match the outfits and have a versatile normcome wardrobe.

No.6 Selected Poppy Long Knit Dress

Even if the accent is on gender neutral clothes, you can still wear dresses. Take something like this, for example, and you will get the idea of many other dresses (and skirts) you could wear.

No.7 Bleach Wash Pocket Denim Long Sleeve Shirt

If you’re gonna move from black, white and gray, go with denim. Pick a denim shirt to wear with black pants or skirt, for example.

No.8 Round Neck Low Back Sweater

When choosing sweaters and cardigans, you can even go with those for men. They will be perfectly baggy and without any feminine details.

No.9 Noisy May Lass Long Sleeve Sweatshirt

Basic hoodies and sweatshirts are another amazing addition to your normcore arsenal.

No.10 ASOS The Ultimate Easy T-Shirt

And of course, for the end, the basic of the basics — the plain tee in neutral color, to go with and underneath everything from the above.

Have fun and enjoy the most relaxed fashion trend ever. You’ll never again have to worry about what to wear!
