Just In: 5 Trends That Will Eclipse All the Others in 2022

Each season, I await the seasonal trend report that Net-a-Porter presents to editors. In it, their team of buyers, directors, and editors weigh in about which trends they predict will be huge for the season ahead. Not only does their team comb through all of the biggest trends from the runway shows, but they also share data about which designers, micro-trends, and specific pieces they’re buying into. So, I also consider it a very accurate look into where fashion will be headed in the coming months.

In Net-a-Porter’s latest trend presentation on the S/S 22 collections, there were some great findings on the spring trends that will be winning out for the season ahead. Ahead, I’m sharing highlights including the five spring trends you can count on being huge, as well as the specific items to add to your cart. Consider this an inside look at where fashion will be headed in the coming months.

The trend: Bold, bright shades are one of the core trends for spring 2022, so get ready to inject your wardrobe with a dose of fun. Joy and optimism were everywhere on the S/S 22 runways, with colors like vibrant green at Valentino, orange at Proenza Schouler, and hot pink at Molly Goddard. The key buys: hot pink, lime green, orange, purple, yellow

Clearly, hot pink is about to take off.

Stylist Mimi Cuttrell's collab with By Far is so stunning.

I hate to pick favorites, but orange is the color I'm backing above all others.

So chic.

Yes to all things yellow.

The trend: Beautiful, functional pieces are the foundational items in every wardrobe. It turns out that both designers and buyers are most interested than ever in focusing on cultivating a collection of elevated everyday essentials to wear now and years into the future. The key buys: flat mules, relaxed suiting, slouchy khakis, tailored shirting, everyday bag

If you read my stories, you already know how much I love these mules.

A great relaxed blazer is a must-buy item.

The slouchier, the better.

Perfection.

The Row does it again.

The trend: Over the last several years, practical accessories like slide sandals and sneakers have been winning out, but we're seeing a swift shift. Conversation-starting pieces are taking over, so get ready to see a steady stream of new Instagram-worthy shoes and bags. The key buys: embellished shoes, cult collabs, aughts-inspired bags, sculptural heels, eyecatching jewelry

Yet another cult shoe from Amina Muaddi.

This collab is *chef's kiss*.

Ready for an aughts comeback moment?

Major impact for just $60.

This blue shade though.

The trend: The influence of the aughts on recent runways is undeniable. For the S/S 22 collections, though, it took a more elevated turn with more refined takes on pieces that defined the 2000s. The key buys: tie tops, low-rise pants, micro mini skirts, cutouts, platforms

Major Y2K vibes.

I think I'm finally ready to try low-rise pants.

This is going to sell out fast.

If just doesn't get cooler.

The shoe that will define 2022.

The trend: Whether you're planning future travels or not, get ready to start wearing more vacation wear with pieces that encapsulate a sense of escapism. The key buys: printed tops, knit dresses, sarongs, luxe swimwear

Matteau always has the most stunning prints.

Three-piece swim is still going strong.

Gorg.

Isa Boulder is a personal favorite for all things swimwear.

I can't get over this ruching.
