Eyelet Embroidery: Here's How To Hop Onto The Breeziest Trend Of 2025

Ever seen those fits with tiny to large eye-shaped holes, all finely stitched? That’s eyelet embroidery. It forms an ornamental pattern that not only lets the air flow (hello, comfort) but also looks stunning. Honestly, the work styles itself. This technique dates all the way back to the 16th century — and I’m so glad people thought, “Hey, this looks cool,” and kept it alive.

Who doesn’t love a good, super-duper comfy co-ord set — the kind you can wear at home, while running errands, and even to work. For that, I truly believe Essgee gets it just right. It’s all in the details; the lace-up neckline, a subtle pop of yellow here and there, and of course, our hero — the eyelets.

How To Style: Adorn it with something yellow and there you are, colourblocking your way through life!

With scalloped short sleeves and intricate blended work throughout, it’s as versatile as it gets.

How To Style: Lace up your sporty sneakers, button up those fringed denim shorts, and you’re all set for a road-tripping slash casual day out.

Let’s desi-fy things a bit, shall we? One of the many reasons I love eyelet embroidery is its ability to transition from casual hangs to slightly fancier occasions.

How To Style: The styling options are endless, but if you ask me, I’d pair it with vibrant jewellery and a trusty pair of kolhapuris. Always a win!
