According to designers, SS22 will be a season to break out. Breaking the rules in order to celebrate newfound freedom. This sentiment of liberation might refer to the restrictions of the pandemic, but is also reflecting the liberation of the self of society with stereotypes and damaging consumerism. Breaking the rules, comes with hyper creative and daring design details. The endless possibilities of seductive and playful cut outs take the leading position this fashion month. Followed by a wave of volants and frills. This trend comes along with all the fancy dresses, ranging from party-ready styles to couture dreams and romantic doll style dresses. The Y2K Mania puts cropped silhouettes, halter-necks and low-rise high on the trend radar as well. Plunging necklines have been one of the omnipresent styles for tops and dresses this season. Such deep Vs are the perfect way to sophisticatedly show-off skin for a sexiness-driven post-pandemic consumer.
There are some styles that are prevailing from the previous seasons, such as fringes and drapes. For SS22, however, fringes are updated with an extra-long or crafted look and joyful palettes. Embellishments are still very relevant, yet this season shore-inspired treasures like shells and stones, have shown to be a surprising favorite for a seductive mermaid note. For fresh influences, floss lacing and spaghetti straps have been interpreted by designers, as they have been a major favorite across Social Media this summer season. The slightly rebellious element of breaking out is accompanied by a taste for raw edges and hemlines, suiting contemporary punk and deconstruction themes.
