Top 5 Current Fashion Trends For 2022 (LATEST, BIGGEST, HOTTEST )

FT NEWS

After the weirdness of 2020-2021 fashion trends – with online business meetings and WFH, 2022 brings some refreshing changes you’ll love to hear about.

For the last 60 years or so, the ‘latest’ fashion trends were gathered from runways and fashion magazines. Nowadays, it is social media influencers and streetwear culture showcasing and dictating what’s cool and fresh in fashion. To a certain extent, the fashion trends of 2021 didn’t help much – in the sense of inspiring the general public. But, in contrast to the apocalyptic settings the fashion industry has gone through in 2020, 2021 brought to light fabulous social media-driven digital trends & aesthetic clothing, aiming to lift you up from the depths of quarantine.

And, compared to the neutral looks of 2021, this year showcases fresher and bolder looks, in part driven by a need to come back to ‘normal’ life and in part by the blossoming TikTok fashion culture.

To some extent, the current styles resemble the 90s fashion trends in the sense of mimicking the silhouettes and patterns of those seasons. However, there’s one big difference; this time, classic styles are reinvented in oversized and loud colors activewear, and streetwear styles. explains Anna Wintour, Artistic Director of Condé Nast and Vogue’s Global Editorial Director. And, as the landscape keeps changing and morphing, staying up with the latest fashion trends is paramount in the post-COVID era. Without further delay, these are the top 5 current fashion trends of 2021-2022.

Stylish, innovative, affordable, and easy to pull off, see how you too can look the par this next year.

  1. Crochet Set

Crochet sets of the 70s fashion are, arguably, a blowing fashion trend pumped up by Harry Styles and his pop-culture phenomenon “Watermelon Sugar” video. The clip features Styles and a group of revelers on the beach, eating fruits while clad in an extensive array of brightly colored crochets, vintage-printed swim, and resort wear. Ever since the launch of the video, the popularity of crochet has continued to rise. According to the fashion search engine Lyst, searches for crochet clothing rose by 85% since last July, particularly for crochet dresses and crochet sets. From Lucy Williams to Bettina Looney and Chrissy Rutherford, crochet sets have become the style of choice for beachside holidays and summer staycations.

  1. Hoodies Under Blazers

 One of the most popular styles rocking the current fashion trends is the ever-so cozy hoodie – however, worn with a twist. Wearing a blazer with a hoodie is no longer just another street style cut, but a mainstream look that transcends generations. Wearing a quarantine staple-piece hoodie under a blazer adds an extra stylistic layer to your overall look. Look for a slim, tapered hoody — preferably a darker, solid hue, without too much embroidery or graphics. Pair it with a dark, solid blazer. Slacks or denim are up to you — either will work depending on the occasion.

3.Women’s Oversized Bomber Jackets

Bomber jackets should always rest loosely on your hip – unless you’ve opted for a slightly cropped style. The clingy cuffs shouldn’t go past or above your wrists, no matter the fit. The cuffs should be relatively tight, so if it hangs over your hand loosely, try a smaller size. The hues, in this case, are almost always neutral, somehow empowering the underneath attire for an effortlessly chic aesthetic.

4.Cropped Cardigans

Very popular also in the 90s fashion, nothing defines the contemporary fashion trends quite like the humble cropped cardigan. A vintage-inspired trend kicked off by high brands like Alessandra Rich and LoveShackFancy, quickly copied by Zara and Forever 21, and other fast fashion brands. Regardless, if putting together a cute outfit seems like too much to handle right now, a skinny knit with your favorite jeans – from our best jeans for women – is the perfect answer. Styles range from basic button-ups to embroidered, embellished, or printed knits, so there’s pretty much something for everyone. You can wear these shrunken knits with slip skirts and a leather jacket, especially if you need another layer of protection. Of course, jeans and boots are also great accompaniments for a cropped cardigan. But however you style it, be that Fairy Grunge or e-Girl, make sure you’ll be comfortable all day long.

5.Casual Trench

Not a fashion season has passed without the trench putting in an appearance, and the most recent shows were no exception. With a perennially stylish military cut, the super practical trench coat is a fashion staple since the First World War. Also, thanks to the Gabardine fabric, the casual trench is perfect for drizzly days. The coat of choice for iconic women for decades, the casual trench is brought back to life by Meghan Markle’s recent royal visits. Great with a cashmere roll neck and Prada tractor-tread boots to create that stylish and yet military-inspired outerwear look.
