Neon colors have been a hit or miss in the fashion industry for the past few years, but their presence has remained consistent. Designers have repeatedly sent neon outfits down the runway in a persistent attempt to start a new, lasting trend that has somewhat paid off.
From Billie Eilish’s trademark neon green looks to Zendaya’s hot pink looks, neon is in. But the tricky thing about styling neon clothes is balance. There’s a high chance you’ll look like a traffic cone if you overdo it, so we’ll help you out.

Neon Dress
Take it from Anne Hathaway, if you’re wearing a neon dress (preferably a mini dress) pair it with monochrome accessories for an iconic look. If that’s too much for you to pull off, go with neutral-toned accessories like white platform boots, heels, or black earrings, depending on the color of your dress.
Opt for shades like hot pink, lime green, or electric blue. Do consider the shade of your skin, so it contrasts nicely.
Wearing a dress calls for loose hair and glam makeup as well.
Neon Top with Denim
This is a tricky one as dark blue denim rarely goes with any neon-colored top. Stay away from dark blue denim unless the top is neon orange.
A godly combo would be black and lime green. Billie Eilish did it first and looked great while doing it and you can too.
Combat boots are a great look with these, as will any casual shoe like a pair of sneakers.
Neon Activewear
Neon and activewear are a match made in heaven. If you don’t already own any neon activewear, you’re probably not been that active lately because this particular trend was caught by the activewear markets first.
Neon-printed leggings and tank tops are definitely what you need for your workouts this season. Nothing gets you going on leg day quite like a cute fit.
A neon co-ord set is a must-have in your wardrobe. It’s cute and trendy, as well as…again, cute and trendy.
Neon Accessories
Again, here it’s all about balance. Overdoing it will probably ruin your outfit.
You can liven up your monochromatic or neutral-toned outfit with neon shoes, or a belt or pull it all together with a neon handbag.
Neon hair clips are all the rage, So you can try them with a slicked-back or frizzy hairstyle.
Last but not least, neon sunglasses. With the festival season near, these glasses will elevate your outfit like no other. So be sure to get one for your summer wardrobe.
Neon Color Block
This is the absolute best way to wear any neon outfit. There is very little chance you can go wrong with this if you’re confident enough to embody the outfit.
Colorblocking contrasting hues are a major yes for fashion girlies. Get your knee-high neon boots and electric blue mini-dress out.
Layering also goes a long way, with mesh types and bralettes this works wonders.
Neon Athleisure
While we prefer co-ord sets for the activewear recs, athleisure is all about looking sporty and fashionable. Co-ord sets rock but in a casual setup. Hailey Bieber knows best and her hot pink set is definitely an inspo.
Pair it with sporty shoes and sunglasses and you’re good to go.
Neon Slip Dress
Ending this without a slip-dress segment would be a sin. The popular 90s slip dress trend is back in 2023 and we have never been more in love.
A neon slip dress might seem questionable, but it’s a must-have in your wardrobe.
The versatility of the slip dress allows it to be worn in many different ways. And the neon shade makes it a statement all on its own.
