Fashion Trends 2022: 8 Essentials Are Already Here

Having style and following trends are two completely different things. But let's face it: wearing current and original pieces makes you a trendy, avant-garde woman who attracts looks and compliments. Your good taste in clothing is envied, sometimes even copied when you dare to get ahead of trends. Indeed, be the first to launch a style with these 8 fashion trends for 2022.

1. The embroidered knitted vest

The embroidered vest or sweater, with fine lace-like embroidery or forming a pattern, will undoubtedly be a key trend in 2022. Even better: hand-knitted or crocheted, the "grandma sweater" should establish itself this season and even next winter with poetry and authenticity!

The small vintage detail that makes all the difference lies in the buttons: pearly, beaded, or golden, the buttons enhance the delicacy and add modernity to this refined piece.

Provided you pair this sweater alternative with more minimalist pieces to avoid a grandmother look. Vintage with slightly faded straight raw jeans and chunky black boots or platform boots. Or more sober with neutral slim jeans (black, gray, denim) and ankle boots of the same color.

2. The shades of brown, camel, cognac

The warm shades of brown are once again featured this year in clothing and accessories with a Nature spirit. Camel, cognac, chocolate, caramel, cinnamon, coffee (yum, this is making me hungry!): everyone will find the color that suits their complexion best by taking this colorimetry test.

3. Modernized Vintage jewelry

Gold remains an essential trend in chic and trendy jewelry. But pearls and fancy gems have not had their last word either. What if we combined both trends in small pieces of originality and poetry like these magnificent cloud earrings and rain of pearls?

4. Long and sexy dress

The long dress is 100% trendy in 2022! Long, extra long, maxi but be careful: it should not drag on the ground lest you turn into a woman with a neglected look and a dirty, frayed hem. It's one of the 8 fashion tragedies that can ruin your look in a split second. 

This winter and in mid-season, we enjoy ultra-chic dark tones with a long coat, gold jewelry, pearls, and wide-brimmed hats. 

This summer, the long dress will be white (or pastel), sometimes fitted and form-fitting, sometimes puffy in a chic romantic cottagecore spirit, either solid or paisley printed. It's really up to you...

5. Back to childhood with the maxi Peter Pan collar

The Peter Pan collar is set to make a big comeback this year in the chic vintage trend. This large pointed collar, in English embroidery or lace, will be modernized with current materials and colors, with minimalist cuts contrasting with the sophistication of the embroidery.

6. The return of the short skirt

The short skirt is back! Seen on many runways of great designers like Dior, Chanel, or even Mary Quant, the mini skirt or short skirt is preferably worn high-waisted (to accentuate the waist and hide a little round belly) in chic and modern styles and materials. One should avoid the extra short skirt if one wants to maintain a bit of dignity and credibility.

As for choosing the right skirt for your body shape, I recommend this guide to find your rare gem.

7. Patterned tights

This year again, patterned tights will be essentials in the women's wardrobe. Elegant and refined, they come in graphic or floral patterns, original and sophisticated.

8. "Childlike" earrings

On the jewelry side, we return to childhood with simple and naive patterns like daisies, hearts, minimalist flowers... Solid or very lightly worked, these accessories are nonetheless chic with their sober flat design, shiny in small touches or frosted gold. Earrings, bracelets, necklaces, and even hair jewelry: everything is allowed in style and colors, even the typical pop of the 80s!

Fashion Trends 2022: which ones will you adopt?

A mix of several fashion trends from past periods, fashion in 2021 draws inspiration, borrows, and modernizes the essentials, timeless pieces, and key items from the women's wardrobe of the 60s, 70s, and even the 80s without ever going for the total look. Fashion is definitely becoming a matter for insiders. But no stress: Les Petits Imprimés will always be there to help you create a style that reflects you.

Best wishes from the entire team at Les Petits Imprimés for this new year 2022, all in style, freshness, and modernity!
