Trendstop is presenting FashionUnited readers with an important product concept for autumn / winter 2022 that will be decisive for the women’s collections of the coming season.
Driven by the growth of the comfort-oriented loungewear category, fashion reflects the consumer’s desire for versatile indoor / outdoor, formal and casual wear. “Volume Comfort” offers a contemporary interpretation of the billowing silhouette that combines luxurious fabrics with proportions and at the same time retains its status as a basic wardrobe item.
Flowing, comfortable cuts
Traditional tailoring loses its stiff and starched approach, while elongated, flowing lines soften silhouettes. Multi-layered items of clothing such as trousers, skirts and jackets, combined with practical details, offer versatility and functionality from morning to evening, while tonal colors and asymmetrical cuts, which are softened by drapery and ruffles, further complement the needs of the modern wardrobe.
Knitwear with natural volume
Exaggerated knitted shapes follow the contours of the body, and sit in such a way that they allow maximum movement. Flowing silk, merino, wool and cashmere yarns ensure luxurious comfort with voluminous sleeves and elongated collars that emphasize the silhouette and create an enveloping effect. Earthy, natural colors give chunky, structured knitting techniques an eco-friendly finish.
The masculine winter trousers
Heavy materials, wool and brushed surfaces that are reminiscent of masculine vintage clothing are combined with slim, elongated silhouettes that are determined by a need for comfort. High-quality, tactile and warming fabrics upgrade traditional trousers and increase their versatility. Unique pockets and voluminous proportions offer an effortless, modern take on men’s tailoring.
