After kicking off a month full of style, New York Fashion Week is back to lead the trends for Fall/Winter 2022. The trend continues in London, Milan and Paris. What will soon rule your mind and shopping cart in the coming months?
A general theme of irreverence permeates the collection through various forms of deconstruction, rebellion and dark romance. A subversive raver aesthetic emerges for alternative dressers, with outfits in slices, sliver and shreds, from knitwear to leather, accented with metalwork and sheer layers. Similarly, the pendulum swings irreverently romantically, with thick footwear, asymmetrical lines and unruly touches offsetting romantic draped and ruched forms.
A modern tribute to American sportswear, with fresh tailoring from full suits to separates, has found its way into minimalists and classicists. Trousers and reworked blazers are two versatile hero pieces that are an early investment and can be paired with everything from loose denim to knitwear for the colder months.
Similarly, period drama plays for the Romantics have perhaps emerged as new-season editions of the Regency Core. Referencing a bygone era, the feel is neither dated nor frivolous, but refreshes the moment of sophistication. With dramatically defined waistlines and rounded shoulders, you’ll find sweeping maxi and full-her skirts leading the trend as key silhouettes that set the trend apart.
Artistic prints, nomad-inspired knitwear, and layering tactics—styling dresses over trousers—are prevalent in fall and winter for the daring, forward-thinking, daring dresser. Of course, what would happen without leather in the chilly weather? The new version is bold and bright, from exaggerated shapes to head-to-toe splashes of color. In addition, a new seasonal shade appeared in the form of marigolds, day and night.
When it comes to evening wear, a new interpretation of the night out is embodied through fanciful rhinestone embellishments. Plus, shimmering separates are almost always balanced out by more subdued crepe and woven designs. Please read on.
