Fashion Snoops : SS22 Trend Story "Pause"

Editor: WGH ➂
Date: 2020

This trend story explores the evolution of loungewear and yoga assortments through the lens of current and future cultural shifts induced by the COVID-19 pandemic. Meeting our true selves amidst the quiet, we find comfort within a range of calming warm hues that set the tone for healing moments of self-reflection. As we shift between different levels of awareness, gradient appliques and mindful messages ease the meditative transition for a seamless practice guiding us towards a positive mental energy. Recognizing the importance of mental and physical recovery we appease our craving for haptic stimuli through textured surfaces that promote therapeutic benefits. For apparel we look at a combination of body hugging base layers with a minimalist appeal and roomy essentials with a focus on sensorial stimulation for a serene transition between energetic practice and times of soothing stillness. Footwear and accessories emphasize features such as plush cushioning and quilted padding within this story best suited for off hours.
