Vogue has declared that Spring 2022’s fashion has “an upbeat, offbeat quality.” InStyle says the season “is clearly packed with cute, must-have styles.” Who What Wear proclaimed the “overarching mood was one of real optimism.” And luckily, you can find all this exuberance and more in one place—The Shops. Here’s a look at the top trends in store.
Bold Hues
Or, as Alicia Keys calls the oranges, pinks and magentas of her limited-edition, size-inclusive collection for Athleta, “optimistic colors.” The superstar singer paired this season’s must-have trend with another—parachute fabrics—in both her Keys Utility pants and jumpsuit.
Athleta
Platforms The hottest shoe silhouette features the kind of sky-high sole seen in Stuart Weitzman’s monochromatic Summerlift Flatform Sandal and Coach’s leather and raffia Talina platform sandals.
Stuart Weitzman $295
Coach $185
High Hemlines
The mini is back—or did it never leave? Check out Zara’s take on the timeless piece in faux leather and bodycon jersey and the party-perfect, draped minidress in eye-catching red from Scanlan Theodore.
Zara $40
Scanlan Theodore $800
Memories of Y2K
Social media-enabled nostalgia for the late ’90s and early aughts has ushered in the return of wide-legged pants, baby tees and other turn-of-the-century icons. Find a retro collection of baggy jeans, cropped cardigans and ribbed tank tops at H&M.
1970’s Flair
The journey back in time continues with Fendi’s spring/summer collection, which showcases feminine empowerment and gives off Studio 54 disco vibes with flowing lines and pop colors along the lines of leggings featuring The Rainbow Girl graphics.
Fendi $430
Contrasting Stripes
Big and bold ones, particularly those in classic black and white, were all over the recent runways. They really pop when paired with a hint of green in Tory Burch’s corsetted Claire McCardell dress, named for the woman credited with inventing American sportswear in the ’40’s and ’50’s.
Tory Burch $1,198
High Performance
Sneakers are officially fashionable and even more so now that Lululemon is in on the action. The retailer launched its first design this spring: the Blissfeel running shoe, which is designed specifically for women, offers a bouncy takeoff, softer landing and a flawless fit.
Lululemon $148
Tenniscore
Whether you are stepping onto the court or the sidewalk, the sport —and most especially its signature skirt—is having a moment. Aritzia’s come in micro or mini, and with or without pleats. You’ll find Yoga Democracy’s Ace Skirt in a variety of bold patterns. And Kate Spade’s Tennis-themed accessory game is really strong, with a ball-shaped crossbody, courtside tote, racket pendants and more.
Aritzia $68
Kate Spade $178
