Top 7 seasonal fashion for men and women

Fashion, you’ll be relieved to hear, is inching ever closer to normality. There were more IRL shows during the recent Spring/Summer 2022 menswear run than in the past two seasons put together, and the designers seemed happier too, with the vast majority demonstrating a renewed creative energy not seen during the repeated lockdowns.

The best news, however, is that the clothes on show were also considerably more exciting to look at, write about, touch and – the hope is – wear than the stuff which walked the digital and phygital runways of recent seasons.

"Everyone is embracing this throwback trend. Inspired by the Gen Z mass, wide-leg pants, bucket hats, and psychedelic prints will all be on show."

"The joy of dressing up, having fun with fashion, and stepping out of our comfort zones is one of fashion's biggest movements, and we are seeing color reign supreme this season."

"As we continue to transition back to the office, our customers are looking for ways to refresh their wardrobe. This trend is about workwear with a directional point of view—injecting new takes on separates that feel less formal and more comfortable."

Staying on the topic of tiny bottoms, low-rise jeans are certainly going to be on people’s radars this summer. Fashion comes in cycles and high-rise jeans have had their time to shine. Low-rise jeans are going to be the new jean trend and will most likely be paired with body jewelry and crop tops.

Exposed waistbands are a trend that I expect to come with the low-rise trend. I am noticing this with the 874 Dickies worker pants that girls are folding over to expose the inner waistband and create a low-rise look. I also think that when girls bust out their bikinis, it will be trendy to have the waistband of bikini bottoms peeping over their jeans.

Steve Madden’s shoes have been blowing up recently with its platform boots. Platform shoes were trendy in winter, and I think the trend is going to continue through the summer by expanding to heels and flip-flops. I am envisioning the 2000s platform wedge flip-flops to make a unique comeback with all the other 2000s styles that have been circling around in fashion trends this year.

This print is going to be the print of the summer for men; it is advertised throughout a multitude of stores, with a few being Pacsun and ASOS. I expect to see many shorts with this print of all colors being styled with different graphic tees to add a little extra pattern or color to a simple fit.

In the end, With a new season approaching it’s only fair to prep our closets for the new trends as well. With these predictions hopefully, you can hop on them before everyone else. I’m interested to see how many of these actually make an appearance in summer fashion this year!
