Berrycore, Citruscore, Peachcore: Which Fruit Aesthetic Are You?

Written by Sedy Lamarr. Published: November 11 2025

 

Fruit-coded style is an easy way to set a mood without buying a whole new wardrobe. Each "core" starts with color, then leans on texture and a few small accessories. Pick the palette that fits your day and build from there!

 

1. Berrycore

Berrycore is romantic and a little dramatic. The palette lives in cherry, raspberry, and blackberry tones. Fabrics like velvet, satin, and lace add depth and shine. Small bows, beads, or charm earrings give it a coquette edge. Makeup can stay soft: a flushed cheek and a gloss that leans red or wine.

 

In Hailey Bieber’s Instagram post, the rich red tone, the sheen of the fabric, and the evening lighting create a clear berry mood. The fitted silhouette and subtle glam keep it elegant, while the deep color does most of the talking. The overall effect is romantic, polished, and ready for a night out.

 

2. Citruscore

Citruscore is bright, sporty, and upbeat. Think lemon, lime, and blood orange. Ribbed knits, mesh, or nylon give it a clean and active feel. The styling is simple and confident: one bold color, neat lines, and minimal extras. Sunglasses or a sleek bag can finish the look without crowding it.

 

Gigi Hadid steps out in a gold-and-silver gown that glows like lemon light under street lamps. The color shifts between pale yellow and metallic warmth, giving it a zesty energy without a single neon tone. Her hair is styled in soft waves, her jewelry kept classic, and the whole look balances Old Hollywood polish with modern shine. This is Citruscore in evening form — bright, elegant, and full of quiet sparkle.

 

3. Peachcore

Peachcore is soft and warm. The palette sits in peach, apricot, and blush with a hint of coral pink. Light fabrics such as chiffon, organza, or fine knit make it floaty and gentle. Petal details, pearls, or small florals keep it sweet without going sugary. Skin looks best with a golden-hour glow.

 

In Kylie Jenner’s post, the pastel peach tone and delicate floral appliqué create a dreamy, elegant mood. The shine is soft, the silhouette is clean, and the styling stays focused on tone and texture rather than logos or loud prints. It feels like sunset light in dress form, which is the heart of Peachcore.

 

So now that you know the basics -- which aesthetic best fits you?
