Expect versatility from your wardrobe in 2022. Some items from 2021 will see another season, such as your puffy jacket, or you can buy one or two statements pieces like a metallic item or a Little White Dress and team with your perennials like some classic heels or sandals.
Yes, Your Puffy Jacket Is Still Going Strong
Oversized puffy jackets are still one of the strong 2022 fashion trends for women. The good news is there are plenty of styles and colors to choose from and you can pick one that suits you best. Be on-trend and opt for a floor-length puffy jacket in black or a three-quarter length in shiny red. Super warm and toasty, you can wear your puffy jacket with many neutral staples such as jeans and T-shirts, or, you can keep warm on a night out, covering your finest little dress with a super-snug long puffy jacket.
Standout in This Season’s Little White Dress
Fashion’s in-crowd are going crazy for 2022’s newest acronym; the LWD, or Little White Dress. Inspired by cottagecore, this dress can be all white or white with a small floral print. Think about wearing billowing hemlines and sleeves that are loose and flowing to get the look right. A gathered waistline is a flattering and comfortable way to wear the look, or if you have a matching belt, you can belt your dress. The nice thing about the LWD is that you can wear it with plimsolls and socks in the day, or heels in the evening.
Metallics Shine and Sparkle This Season
The catwalks of Milan and New York Fashion Weeks have been awash with metallics, so there’s no better time than 2022 to get your glitz and glamour on. Shimmer into a sunset with a strappy dress in silver, or step out into the sunrise with a Lurex knitted top in gold. From cherry red to ocean blue, you can also shine in metallic polyester dresses in many colors. Take your cues from the late 70s glamour of “Dallas” and go for oversized shoulder pads with this look. Team with some killer heels, and if you’re feeling chilly, you can throw on your puffy jacket.
Get Comfortable in Wide-Leg Pants
Inspired by the rise of working from home, the wide-leg pant is one of comfort, yet they can still be a pant that’s dressed up for the evening. Pair your wide-leg pants with your favorite T-shirt or knitwear for a smart and casual feel. For footwear, flats are always better with wide-legged trousers. If you’re wearing heels, be sure your pants have hems that reach your toes.
In 2022, you can take your pick of these new styles to suit your own look and fashion tastes and mix and match with existing items in your wardrobe. Whether you’re a comfort-seeker or a sparkling starlet, just one of these key items will update your look by buying and selling designer goods and keep you ahead of the curve all year.
