Go to the project view on the left side of android studio.

Then select app-> res-> values-> styles :

Inside the styles.xml file you'll find something like this :

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">

Change it to :

<style name="AppTheme" parent="Base.Theme.AppCompat.Light.DarkActionBar">

Simply add "Base." before Theme and the design view should work just fine.
