The influence of fast fashion has shaved the 20-year trend cycle into 10 years, and we’re seeing the resurgence of early 2010’s looks a bit too soon. These celebs ushered in 2022 with semi-nostalgic attire that makes this 90’s baby a little nervous.
Low rise jeans are officially a hit with Gen Z, or at least those that can pull them off… or rather, pull them up. Dove Cameron looks fantastic even as she does the traumatic pants-shimmy – we gave up this trend for a reason, people!
Drop-waist silhouettes have barely begun to haunt my memories of Year 7, and the young Lily-Rose Depp has already added them to her Chanel wardrobe. Is this not the pose that every Disney star made in the late 2000s?
Ballet flats are back on the red carpet, as seen on fashion icon Alexa Chung, who embodies the Ballerina trend that was first in line in 2022.
Whether it was the desire for comfort in the pandemic or Gen Z’s penchant for irony, Crocs are somehow back – thankfully, as a niche. Though that didn’t stop On-air host Arie Rose from rocking the trend.
Undies as accessories were sure to come hand-in-hand with low rise bottoms. Supermodel Bella Hadid showcased both her exposed straps and a complimentary gold body chain in Miami this summer.
Miss Depp again showcases her fashion savvy, hopping on the Ballerina trend and showcasing big, eye-catching hair bows. Doesn’t it remind you a little of the hair accessory craze of 2010?
Of course, punk princess Willow Smith would be an early follower of the 2022 Avril Lavigne aesthetic. Neckties with miniskirts and statement tights are getting a second chance in the sun, and I’m not mad about it.
Let us know what you think! Which of these trends would you wear again?
