Best fashion and hairstyle news right now? I really wanted to create a synthesis of powerful, sophisticated femininity, with an interplay of multiple American and Parisian influences, sports and craftsmanship, creative director Matthew M. Williams said of Givenchy’s new collection. Next to her stands a contemporary man with an instinct for chic nonchalance. On the runway, both are grounded by a sense of reality. For Isabel Marant this season, there was a little Y2K inspiration and a desire to focus on the essentials. Getting dressed in a simple and comforting gesture, putting on a men’s jacket or an oversized coat over a skinny little dress, betting on the cosiness of a cuddly knit dress paired with Motocross-inspired thigh-high boots.

Luxurious soft bridal waves: Soft waves and wedding hair go hand in hand. And so it continues into 2022. The updated look would feel at home on the red carpet with a touch of bohemian styling. A little bit imperfect, a touch of effortless chic, add a bit of volume and texture to mess things up a bit. Keep it simple. Style this look with a delicate crown or headband, a small side comb or statement earrings. Less is definitely more with this look – you might even find just a wedding veil is all you need.
Valentino landed the number two spot, after not ranking last season. What that tells us: There must be power in pink. Pierpaolo Piccioli’s exclusive use of eye-popping hot pink and black divided reviewers, but not Vogue Runway’s readers. Also: There’s definitely power in celebrity. A Zendaya sighting never hurts and the superstar made her only appearance of the season at Piccioli’s show. His Paris venue had screaming fans by the thousands outside to greet her, a site and sound reproduced over and over again this season, with Kim Kardashian turning up at Prada and Balenciaga, Julia Fox at Versace, and the resplendently pregnant Rihanna at Gucci, Off-White, and Christian Dior. Maria Grazia Chiuri’s Dior collection was our number-one most-viewed show of the season. She also had Blackpink’s Jisoo in the front row.
Kayla Marci, market analyst at retail intelligence platform EDITED, explains that the desire is already very much there on a wider scale too: “Across U.S. and UK mass-market brands, bright tones have shifted from pink to green as the top invested colour. Green apparel online has grown 28%, while orange is up 15% and pink and yellow both up 5% YoY.”
One of the most wearable trends to come out of this round of runways was the pleated skirt, and while there was a light scattering of mini incarnations reminiscent of this summer’s favourite tennis skirt, for SS22 it’s all about the pleated midi. Other than that, there really are no rules. Printed, plain, colourful, monochrome, paired with knits or paired with a bralette – as long as it’s pleated then you’re bang on the money. Suits may have been off the sartorial radar for quite some months as swathes of the country took to working from home in loungewear, next season sees the old staple return with a vengeance. Stark white and complete with show-stopping accents – from waist ties to contrast black hardware and bold shoulders, these are pieces that will make the prospect of returning to your commute a whole lot more bearable. Led by a team of highly dedicated and motivated group of individuals we are firmly focused on our customer’s needs. We hope that with continuous developments and innovation we will continue to expand and bring our unique experience to shoppers throughout the world.
Curtain Bangs, In addition to curly bangs, Ho says we’ll be seeing curtain bangs, like those on Camila Cabello, popping up throughout the season. They’re a slightly more laid-back approach to a fringe. “[I like] long bangs with lots of layers and texture, ranging from long hair to short bobs,” Ho says. The beauty of curtain bangs is that it’s a style you can achieve by simply growing out your shorter bangs. Another great thing about them? They can be worn straight forward, as seen here on Bella Hadid, or pushed to the side for a totally different look.
Presenting perhaps the tiniest mini skirts we have ever seen, Miuccia Prada’s first Miu Miu collection back on the catwalk was all about officewear, but in a very back-to-school way. Low-slung waistbands and extremely short hemlines were the order of the day, with plenty of layered shirting and knitwear. Entitled ‘Comic Strip’, Lanvin’s SS22 collection was described by the house as a reconsideration of the meaning of Lanvin – its signs and signifiers, its fundamental definition. A Lanvin that resonates with the 2020s to the same degree that Lanvin defined the 1920s – a dialogue between past and future. The collection by Bruno Sialelli is a tribute to the house’s identity, its ideology, remixed for where the world is today. Find additional details at fashion blog.
