While fashion trends change quickly, there are a few you can anticipate today before they become popular. The runway collections for the 2022 season were plenty, so if you’re in the mood for some new stuff to fill your wardrobe with, there’s plenty to choose from right now. There are plenty of fresh new perspectives on fashion for the remainder of 2022, but if you’re an early adopter who wants to check out some of the pieces before the rest of the world, there are a few essential trends to keep an eye on.
Some of the resort 2022 trends, such as heightened comfort and everyday athleisure, are likely known from the 2021 collections, but designers are continuing to refine them. If you want to be the first one to grab the best fashion deals out there, you need to be aware of what’s trending in 2022.
To help you out, these are the trends in fashion you will be seeing throughout the year:

Sweat Pants Are All the Rage
Whether you favour oversized, fleece-lined joggers or raised soft-pants like knitted flares and flowy culottes, we’re forecasting lazy bottoms as a constant in early 2022, thanks to Omicron’s unwanted arrival.
Oversized Shirts/Tops
Dresses and tops retain their volume in 2022, with enormous shirting, expanded silhouettes, and a continuation of the puff sleeve trend. The latter, on the other hand, will likely spice up all the soft jeans you’ll be wearing on the bottom.
Platinum Shoes
From sky-high heels to flatform shapes, loafers, ankle-strap heels, boots, and even clogs get a retro makeover. So put your micro-heels away for a while; 2022 is all about hefty soles.
Low-Rise Pants
The low-slung trouser and micro-mini skirt are back in full force. If you’re not a fan of the tight and stretchy thong-revealing design, channel Jennifer Aniston in the 1990s with low-slung denim, leather pants, or cargos.
Purple Is The New Favorite
Purple-tinged clothing will soon be everywhere, from Pantone’s relaxing Very Peri to more saturated tones with a regal air – lock in your signature shade sooner rather than later.
Cut-Outs Are Trending
In the cutout game, there’s no such thing as shame. If 2022 proves anything, it will be that skin is still fashionable, and expertly placed cutouts on dresses, tops, and even the occasional low-rise bottom will be a part of the fashion craze.
You May See Bra-Tops in Stores
Isn’t it a no-no for real shirts? The bra has officially achieved “real top” status, whether you’re dressed casually at home or making a stronger statement for a night out. For a balanced look, use it under a shacket or oversize blazer.
Power Suits
power suits in vivid, wonderful fabrics, and bold designs will be seen everywhere. Since the pandemic, more modern women have moved into leadership roles, focusing on growing their businesses while maintaining a professional appearance.
Bright Statement Bags
The rainbow-bright bag trend is available in a variety of colours, including orange, pink, yellow, green, and vivid blue. If you can’t decide on a single colour to complement your clothing, choose a two-tone design or one that swirls in various tones.
Cardigans
Cardigans will be back as a flexible wardrobe staple this year. You’ll see more cardigans in both men’s and women’s wardrobes, and they’ll be worn as jackets.
Micro Fiber Jeans
In recent years, the composition of a pair of jeans has evolved into a mosaic of cellulosic, regenerated, and synthetic fibres, with additives that provide stretch, recovery, durability, and more. Denim mills are promoting fabrics created with a single traceable and recyclable fibre as demand for circular products grows and customers become more aware of the challenges associated with recycling blended materials.
Mod Prints
Designers referenced to the 1960s on the runways with A-line little skirts and dizzying designs — butterflies included — while adding a splash of Y2K nostalgia to the mix. So, channel your inner print mixer by mixing bold with bolder – we’re thinking of a jacquard knit sweater and a swervy skirt as a starting point.
Goth
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker, the celebrity ‘It’ pair, are not only a nostalgic match made in millennial pop-culture heaven, but their harmonising dark and edgy style has also sparked a goth fashion rebirth. The latex, spikes, leather and skull- designs, which are one part Hot Topic and one part designer-led may be a welcome contrast to the warm and conservative cottagecore trends that have dominated fashion recently. Leather coatings, patches, and aggressive metal accessories are all expected from denim companies.
