Think polka dots had their moment? Think again.

Recently on Mamamia's Nothing To Wear podcast, Leigh Campbell caught up with Lucinda Pikkat, a content creator with 15 years in trend forecasting.

They were reflecting on fashion trends they saw on and off the street at Copenhagen Fashion Week 2025.

"We saw lots of polka dots. And I'm talking lots, off and on the runway, there was so much. You think a trend is gone? No," Lucinda observed.

"It's one of those things, like, we always say, if it sticks and sells, it stays."

Watch: Leigh and Lucinda break down Copenhagen street style on Nothing To Wear. Post continues below.

The fashion elite are obsessed; Jacquemus, Acne Studios, Valentino, Carolina Herrera, and Dolce & Gabbana all featured spotted pieces in their latest collections.

While classic black and white dots will always be chic, we're loving the new colour combos like chocolate brown with ivory dots that feel completely modern.

We've rounded up our faves that we're coveting for Spring.
