5 Fashion Trends to Look Out for in 2022
January is all about looking ahead and getting excited for what 2022 has instore. Do you have a big event coming up? Or hoping to make a significant lifestyle change? Perhaps you’re just hoping to finally get away and enjoy some sunshine. Whatever your dreams are for this year, you deserve to feel your best as you achieve them. And these hot new trends will help you do just that.
Sequins and Metallics
Usually only reserved for the festive season, sequins and metallics are set to be big all year round in 2022. Shake off the winter blues by injecting a bit of sparkle into your wardrobe in the form of a glitzy slip or shimmery maxi dress. Avoid fussy jewellery that will detract away from the outfit – a pair of our ultra-cool Molten Hypoallergenic Hoop Earrings will do the trick instead.
Head-to-Toe Colour
Ditch the beige and neutrals. 2022 is all about big, bright and bold colour. Colour block suits and co-ords are still having a moment but we’re going to see some unexpected combos hitting the shelves too. We’re talking orange trousers with pink halter neck tops. Or emerald green dresses with purple jackets. It’s all about being brave, expressing yourself and looking fabulous.
Y2K Style
Low-rise trousers, crop tops, body chains and velour tracksuits. All things you thought you’d left firmly behind in 2005, right? Wrong! Because early 00’s fashion is back whether you like it or not.
Don’t worry if bra tops and plastic hairclips aren’t really your thing. You can still give a subtle nod to the trend by teaming a pair of sexy luxe cargo pants with strappy heels and oversized hoops. Or else embrace the nostalgia with a pair of our butterfly stud earrings, star stud hoop earrings or daisy drop earrings. All these stainless-steel earrings are allergy free which means that even those with sensitive ears can get involved.
Mini Skirts
Mini skirts are another old favourite making a comeback in 2022. Thick tights and knee-length boots are the mini’s best friend during winter, whilst oversized tees and sweatshirts lend themselves to a more mature look. Then expect to see lots of bold prints and patterns as we move towards spring.
Mini skirts with high waistlines are a contemporary take on this classic or go full retro with an on-trend tennis skirt.
Dramatic Embellishments
Sweatpants and hoodies have been the staple of most our wardrobes for the past couple of years. But 2022 looks set to change all that by encouraging us to add a touch of drama to our looks. We’re talking cape dresses, kimono style sleeves and lots and lots of tassels.
Our favourite way to adopt this trend is with a fringed sleeve top. Dress up the look with a pair of wide legged trousers and huggie hoops. Or be festival ready with the help of an edgy ear cuff and a pair of denim shorts.
