Surfer Nephew Style: the coolest trend of Summer 2024
Dressing like a young surfer will make us feel like we're on vacation even in the city. This is the power of the surfer nephew style, the protagonist of this summer.
When summer begins, there is a desire for freshness, relax, and freedom. Whether it's the heat or the season that invites exploration, the fact remains that there is no reason to wear tight, heavy, and dark-colored clothing. Instead, dare with ultra-light fabrics and try natural colors. The connection with the sea, sand, earth, and the wind in your hair (dried by the sun) is the perfect mood to live August. This is the spirit of the surfer nephew style: it hints at an anti-bourgeois, free-spirited approach to life, loyal only to the ocean waves. You'll find him there every morning, spending the night on the shore, illuminated by a bonfire. Not everyone is an expert surfer, but the image inspires a distinct style, recognizable at a glance.
In pajamas but not quite
As we mentioned, it doesn’t have a well-defined “uniform” but rather some elements that define a surfer nephew look: wide cuts and very light tones. The symbolic garment is wide pants with a drawstring, worn oversized and even low-waisted: the hem is longer than necessary and folds under flip-flops or ultra-flat sandals. The shirt is wide: short-sleeved and worn open to reveal the swimsuit underneath. White and made of crumpled linen or colored cotton with tiki or Hawaiian prints. In the city, it reveals a short ribbed tank top showing off the abs. A look that references home pajamas but with the attitude of a Californian surfer (and here we recommend watching the cult film, Big Wednesday).
Iconic accessories
Iconic beach accessories should not be missing, such as a knitted fisherman's hat and a pair of colorful flip-flops. But the true touch of a surfer nephew is necklaces of all kinds and shapes. Shells, beads, hard stones, or made with cords, are tied around the neck or ankles, just like a real surfer on American beaches.
