Fashion can be an extremely nebulous, and at times, hard to grasp concept that makes no sense. After all, fashion is, all and in of itself, a method for self-expression. Fashion includes in itself everything from outer wear to accessories. Like anything else to do with expression, fashion is heavily reliant on public perception and opinion. Fashion trends usually emerge from a variety of sources, such as changing economic conditions, social conditions, prevalence of likes and dislikes, as well as celebrity perception.
These trends stay for a while, and these trends come and go, which is why it can be hard to predict them and stay in style while the trends are in. Thankfully, here is a list for you to know more about all the trends for Fall and Winter 2022 so that you can be on top of your fashion game this season.
Hot Pink
Hot Pink, in varying shades of a Barbie-esque sartorial choice has made a comeback. Also known as Barbiecore, people have been wearing hot pink outfits, from head to toe, adding a splash of colour to their style statements. Hot Pink outfits have popped up on the collections of many famous designers, such as Valentino, Prada and Michael Kors.
Corset Tops
Corset Tops, like bustiers, are a new fashion fad that has been making the rounds lately. They were seen in the collections of Kim Shui, Versace and Dion Lee. You can wear these outfits when you’re going out for a cocktail dinner or for partying. A classy, elegant combination that can be paired with gorgeous pearl necklaces, these corset tops can be a delightful way to become the shine of every party.
Basics
Basics have made a comeback this season, showing up after being presented at the fashion shows of Bottega Veneta and Prada, marked with their logo. These basics, such as white tank tops, have been paired with jazzy skirts and sleek leather trousers. Basics would also look good with minimalist jewelry, something that doesn’t overpower the clothes you are wearing.
Flight Jackets
Flight Jackets have made a return. A versatile clothing item that you can wear in every situation, they are stylish, and can be worn everywhere, from dinner to clubs, parties as well as formal events. Flight Jackets can be dressy, but casual as well. All in all, a great choice to make this fall and winter.
Knitwear
Knitwear, once the province of old ladies that had nothing else to do, is now gaining traction in the fashion world. Knitwear has made a comeback, and with both fall and winter coming, knitwear is a good choice that you can wear anywhere and keep warm and stylish while doing it. At fashion shows organised by Yohji Yamamoto, Chanel and Molly Goddard, different styles of knitwear were presented. You can purchase knitwear in the form of Fair Isle sweaters knotted at your waist, chunky sweaters paired with evening dresses, as well as cardigans, sweater dresses, blankets and two-piece sweaters.
Maxi Skirts
Putting the summer truly behind themselves, autumn and winter are preparing for a fashion showdown with the revival of Maxi Skirts once more. Wraparound skirts, Maxi Coats, in dressing gown coats and faux fur fabrics and floor sweeping maxi skirts are some of the pieces showed at collections. These dresses make for a snug, warm and fashionable choice in the cold winter, ensuring you both look stylish and stay warm.
Pearls
Surprisingly, Pearls have made a comeback. With their storied history, stemming back to 3000 BC, pearls have always been a precious gemstone that have been worn as a fashion accessory. Pearls were associated with the moon, since they looked like it, and have been associated historically with power, strength and purity. Pearls are also associated with innocence, and post-World War 2, with femininity, because of iconic personalities such as Princess Diana and Audrey Hepburn.
However, lately, Pearls have been associated with masculinity. Male Celebrities, such as Harry Styles and ASAP Rocky have been spotted wearing pearls. Men wearing pearls have been doing it both as a fashion statement, as well as a statement of their identity. Wearing pearls can be a way for men to project a stronger, more assertive self-image.
