It’s all in the little details when it comes to crochet tops for summer. You know that feeling when you slip on a piece and you immediately feel a little bit more ‘put together’ – but like, in a breezy, effortless, ‘I totally just threw this on’ kind of way?
That’s what crochet tops are doing for me this season.
They have the perfect mix of texture and structure, with the right amount of boho without going full ‘Festival Mode’ (unless, of course, that is your vibe – in which case, carry on).

18 Crochet Tops That Are Perfect for Summer 2025
I’ve been seeing crochet tops everywhere lately – and not the itchy, unbreathable kind either. We’re talking soft knits, open-weaves, and 100% cotton. Silhouettes that work for everyday life: casual dinners, school drop-offs, weekends at the shore. I pulled (more than) a few of my favorite crochet tops for summer 2025 that are as chic as they are wearable. Let’s get into it…
1. Maeve Linen Blend Embroidered Strawberry Tie-Front Top
I ordered this kitschy vintage-inspired strawberry embroidered tie-front top SO FAST. Sweet and sassy: this is my ideal summer top. Stay tuned for pics of me in this on the blog soon, I’m sure!
