TREND #1

Think Pink.

Think pink, peach, fuchsia, and everything in between. This Isabel Marant runway look serves up a pretty-in-pink package, topped off with sunglass style IM0011/S, a metal aviator with pink mirrored lenses, part of the new Isabel Marant eyewear collection from Safilo.

TREND #2

Hollywood Hype.

Here, a look from the Gucci runway—which took place on Hollywood Boulevard while displaying the nostalgic appeal of Tinseltown. And nothing screams old-school Hollywood glam quite like fierce frames; 76 of Gucci’s 115 runway looks for SS22 included eyewear, like this dazzling style (GG1094S) from Kering Eyewear.

TREND #3

Edgy Appeal.

A departure from the pastels of the season (such as Pantone’s Daffodil, Spun Sugar, and Gossamer Pink, to name a few), and the twee trend as of late, edgy elements are taking hold for SS22. What’s in store? Think motorcycle jackets, a no-nonsense color palette, and polished accessories. Here on the Dolce & Gabbana men’s runway, the fashion house’s DG6177 sunglasses from Luxottica set the tone.

TREND #4

Mother of Pearl.

From pearl accessories to pearl embellishments on garments, this design detail is adding elegance to this season’s style. Here on the Badgley Mischka runway, pearls add dimension to this bold blazer, and the brand’s Charlina sunglass style from The McGee Group mirrors the modern display of glam with decorative stones along the temples.

TREND #5

Sleek Stripes.

Stripes for the season are chic (as seen on the runways of Tory Burch, Balmain, and Louis Vuitton) and sporty—such as this sleek, striped ensemble from Lacoste, paired with a futuristic runway-exclusive sun style. The latest Lacoste eyewear collection, available from Marchon, fuses the brand’s sporty heritage with modern style.

STATEMENT-MAKING SHADES FOR SS22

“Colors for Spring 2022 bring together our competing desires for comforting familiarity and joyful adventure through a range of soothing and timeless colors, along with joyous hues that celebrate playfulness,” says Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute, of the SS22 NYFW color palette. “As we enter this new landscape, one where fashion rules no longer apply, hues for Spring 2022 allow us to mix and marry as we please, encouraging the exploration of new chromatic realities, opening the door for personalized style and spontaneous color statements.”
